For sailors, LuckGrib offers a best-in-class, complete solution: industry leading visualization and ease of use, highly optimized weather data downloads via satellite, along with industry leading optimized weather routing and route analysis. 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.

LuckGrib Reviews
A brilliant Apo for sailors and excellent value
This is my go to for passage planning. It’s great to select a larger area than needed to see how the weather is moving. The refresh feature is awesome to easily update the forecast as the days pass.
Fantastic
Across Atlantic but forgot that the planner was only 14 days - so ended up doing myself. Rest of it is very easy. Only we used iridium go. My iridium and red box would not download the grib .
Responsive developer
On top of an excellent piece of software Craig McPheeters is responsive to users needs and suggestions. A1 product. Go get it. Even if you’re not a sailor!
Classy Software
I have been using LuckGrib for about a year now, and although I am not one for writing reviews I felt the need to do so for LuckgGrib. It is a well written and classy piece of software with excellent visual presentation. With all due respect to the folk who have down marked the app.. it is their lack of understanding about GRIB files, and how to interpret them through LuckGrib that is the problem. The app has an integrated tutorial that automatically runs for new users, it is a genuinely useful system and new users should follow/participate before attempting to use the app. LuckGrib offers a multitude of GRIB file downloads from their own server, and a slick fast visual range of viewing options. The weather routing (with yacht model) option is also excellent, being both fast and offering a number of unique visual aids to help interpret the routing result(s). Yacht models and routing calculations are all local to the device running the app. The satellite download option has also worked flawlessly for us; which is an essential feature while sailing offshore. My wife and I are permanent “live-a-board” sailors and have sailed half way around the world on our catamaran. I started off - as many do - using Predict Wind, a subscription based product that offers just four GRIB file options (two of which are their own variant models). Routing calculations are carried out on their own servers and so hidden from the user.. this also making vessel model modifications impossible while at sea. Having since moved to LuckGrib, a pay once application, I feel that we have improved our ability to easily download and view forecasted weather, and to safely plan our next or current passage.
LuckGrib
I tried this app a few months ago and it opened Grib2 files. I bought the app but found it had been changed. I used it on an iPad, it is far from intuitive and I had to ask for help. As a Grib viewer, it is clumsy compared, say, to PocketGrib. I used the email address on the website but emails did not go - using my iCloud account. Frustrating. Give it 3 stars
Excellent App
Aside from the huge choice of models the passage planning meteogram along a moving line is very good and has proven to be very accurate on a recent offshore crossing.
Where is the sea state shown please?
Is sea state shown somewhere? Otherwise very good
Missing wave / sea state forecast
A must have ! Thanks
Superb weather app
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.
