MarineCast App Reviews

Not bad for a general overview of sea conditions around the state - especially when planning ahead. Not specific enough for conditions on day of trip in the specific localities...but thats the job more for the boat equipment.

This app is very good at showing specific information needed by sailers and boaters. Very useful.

What good is an app that doesnt work where you live? Alaska info doesnt seem to be available ---- worthless to me.

After Spending my 5.99 to download the app. I discovered that Alaska was not included. Totally useless........... since I live in Alaska. Perhaps a note regarding this. Also could not select less than 1 star when writing this review.

Been using Sailflow to help win races for years. Marinecast is my portable version and the reports have become even more reliable. The only things I fault is a lack of legends on these small images and the fact that its very difficult to read the wind direction arrows when theyre white. Theyre extremely small and in lower wind speeds there isnt enough contrast to make them stand out. Otherwise go for it.

This is not it. I havent found the wind predictor to be at all accurate and the lack of legends on the maps makes the data fairly useless. The only part Ive found useful is the NOAA integration

Sailflow has gone java heavy and of course does not work on the iPhone, they also have Marinecast whihc is kind of a basic wind charting graph product, not that great really. Marinecast gives you Sailflow wind ad weather charting. its a combnaton of both and it works on the iPhone! a well spent 6 beans!!!! UI is modern and nice, I have a Sallflow subscription, so not sure how tis looks or works without one? possibly limited? Thomas Lynch s/v Akula Mt. Sinai Saling Association

We use marine cast for our trips north and south.helps keep us up to date with wind speeds and directions.

Have a sailboat and so am extremely sensitive to winds and weather. Use Sailflow constantly and am amazed at its accuracy. combined Witt eh NOAA reports, its hard to miss!

Excellent app for sailing.

A lot of missing information. Wheres the forecast data? Too bad theres no return policy.

Thanks for making sure we are race ready

Would like to see a forecast for wave heights. Wind forecasts tend to be very accurate. Been using it on the Great Loop. Is there a way to make screens scrollable?? A good product over all. Eldon Morrison

Want wave heights

Waste of money wow

Tidal current flow predictions stopped working several days ago. Hoping the developer fixes.....

Appreciate knowing what the wind is doing before I drive to the lake. Good basic app!

Very accurate wind predictions on the great lakes.

Maps not interactive. App not user friendly. Waste of money. Unsure as to accuracy.

This provides all the information a sail boat needs on the Great Lakes. That is where I use it. Includes marine forecasts and wind vector forecast maps. I use this all the time. The nearshore marine forecast for all NOAA weather stations are no longer available in text form. That was the best part of the app and I miss it. If there is a weather station nearby, the readings for that station are available. I dont leave the dock until I have checked the weather with this app. This was a four star app when it had the NOAA reports.
