Great app

Very accurate
By Iamjorday

App doesn’t open on my iPhone 12 so not useful.

I paid for a premium subscription and I can’t use the app on my iPhone 12.

Beware of the trial

The free trial period is only seven days when you sign up by the app. When you download this app you will get an email that will tell you that it is 15 days. This is not true. You will be billed for the full subscription, if you do not cancel within seven days.

More accurate than weather.gov

I was skeptical at first, because it gave forecasts that were different than other sources like weather.gov or boatus. I went out to Catalina and the conditions where as predicted by buoyweather-this team is very legit, same guys as surfline. ultimately you get what you pay for.

Deceptive Content

The app indicates that wave heights are not available, however from NOAA, they are. There was a Small Craft Advisory in effect the first time I used the app, but the app gave no indication. The app gave me the indication that it would be a great afternoon for boating, but that was not the case. Use at your own risk, or go directly to the source for the information.

Very Accurate

I’m always skeptical of anything related to predicting weather, however, this app has impressed me over the last couple of years. Although the premium version extends the forecast to 16 days, my experience is to trust up to seven days. After that it drops to a 50/50 scenario… still not bad since predicting Mother Nature can’t be conquered. If you’re a boater, don’t think about it any longer, buy it.
