Inshore sailors may not require satellite downloads, but will benefit from the rest of the system.
LuckGrib is unique among apps that were originally designed for sailors, in that the weather analysis tools are powerful enough to attract attention from meteorologitsts.
For sailors, meteorologists, and all weather enthusiasts, LuckGrib offers access to a wide range of high resolutions models, a number of global models, weather data at the surface, 850mb, 500mb and 250mb levels, parameters ranging from simple things such as wind, pressure and temperature, to more advanced quantities such as simulated radar, standard deviations, precipitable water, lightning, vertical vorticity, helicity and more. LuckGrib is a thoroughly modern and advanced GRIB viewer.
LuckGrib provides access to many weather and ocean models, including global models such as GFS and ECMWF along with many high resolution models, which vary according to the region you are interested in. In the USA, there is the HRRR, NAM, NBM and many others. In Europe there is Icon-EU, Arpège, Arome, the Danish DINI and others. There are several ocean current models, such as the global RTOFS and Mercator Ocean, along with regional higher resolution models such as OFS, NCOM, CMEMS and others.
The LuckGrib weather routing system is an industry leading, high quality, robust, high performance and comprehensive system.
The LuckGrib isochronal Weather Routing solver has many unique features, such as being able to respect constraints (points that must be left to port or starboard,) deal with routes which require you to heave-to, outstanding visualization and interactivity features, and much more.
LuckGrib comes with a 14 day free trial, or free access to reduced resolution downloads (LuckGrib Lite) for users who do not require access to the most accurate data. If you are interested in studying weather and gaining access to detailed weather forecasts, download the app and give it a try.
Downloading data via satellite requires the Offshore Data in-app purchase. Access to the isochronal weather routing system requires an in-app purchase.
Note that LuckGrib does not use a subscription pricing model - after the free trial, when you decide to purchase the app, there will be a one time charge, not an ongoing subscription.

Love the compression and fast download, the access to regional models as well as global, Luck Grib is my go to weather app for passage planning.

Awesome, easy, affordable

Best Weather Routing App I’ve found

rehmbo on

United States

Using LuckGrib for some boat optimizations for Great Lakes racing and the combination of detailed real-world options and settings and ability to quickly visualize decisions and their ramifications is second to none. Well done!

Best Offshore Weather App

Jamie5838 on

United States

LuckGrib has a much broader broad range of weather and oceanographic models to choose from compared to other apps and LuckGrib gives you access to the detailed data if you care to understand the why of the forecast. The ensemble forecasts are great for making clear the variability between the models. The vessel and output parameters are highly customizable. The GUI and output are candy. It’s become my primary tool for planning offshore passages.

Built in tutorials are A+

Unsuspecting Customer2 on

United States

All apps should have the amount of care built in to them that LuckGrib has. It has several hands-on tutorials built in that are easy to get to and learn from. This app is easy to use and very useful! It has a ton of features and thanks to the tutorials I can get to them and use them. I am very impressed by the functionality, ease of use, and I know I can use the tutorials if I get stuck.

Additional information detail passage report

sv Bedouin on

United States

We’re circumnavigating and use LuckGrib for all of our routing. Some small additions to the detail report would be really helpful. 1. Wave period. 2. Wave angle relative to the boat. #1 you a,ready show when just looking at specific points. The other is a calculation of Heading(not COG), vs Wave direction.

Great App.

Said it, yeah, i said it. on

United States

Recently purchased the app and been using it aboard and underway for a week. Very functional and well thought out and the tutorials excellent as well. About to do an ocean passage and its already helped immensely.

Steve has created a great app for sailors. Try out his 14 day trial!

Superb weather app

United States

Extremely versatile tool for weather analysis and passage planning and routing. It’s not as automatic as PW, but is faster and offers better control of parameters and views. A great value for serious sailors.
