- I hope you will use it. In the mean time, I am surprised you give the app such a rating, If you don’t know!
Great app. The most accurate I’ve found for So Cal Marine Waters. Catalina, Mexico, Santa Barbara. Works for me everytime. Great for planning my weekends and I’m sure when I decide to step it up it will be useful for longer distances.
I plan all my sailing trips with it. Absolutely necessary!
