Reviews
Inaccurate, unreliable info!

App is useless. For example, for Lake Erie (west) no matter what winds are forecasted app says “waves one foot or less.” Duh!! Lake Erie does not have one foot waves with winds gusting to 20 mph.
Just what I was looking for
Check is in the mail
This is a great app. I've been looking for wave predictions from an app for a while this is great. I'll have more once I know for sure how accurate it is. Works great and the nice thing is I put the app on my wife’s device and she loves it. Being on Lake Erie things change quickly.
Very useful app!

This is an easy to use marine app that provides weather and wave info for the Great Lakes. It will become my go to app this summer! I'd encourage the developer to find a way to allow it so work in landscape mode on the iPad.
Super easy and useful

I do some boating, fishing and swimming in the Great Lakes every summer and I'm always trying to scour the internet for water temps and relevant weather. This app is super easy and quick to find the info I need! I may not be a commercial boater, but I could see how this app could be super useful for a pleasure boater or even a beach goer! This will be very helpful when we head to the beach or head out to the big lakes this summer! Great find!
Best Great Lakes sea conditions app yet.

I've used several in the past. This is stable and easy to use. Nice job.

This App allows quick, written, NOAA information on the exact areas you want to boat, verses having to "wait" for the marine radio to supply you with the general NOAA information of the area that you would like to boat at.
Excellent app

This app meets all of my needs as a marina site supervisor on the Great Lakes who requires quick access to local marine weather date in order assist patrons in deciding whether to stay or depart.
Not accurate!

Recently downloaded app. Just checked app after receiving a Marine warning on the Weather channel. There is NO indication of a storm on the app. And no notice of severe weather. I refreshed the app several times and still nothin to indicate bad weather, small craft warning, lightening and high winds. Not worth the $2.99.
