I stopped by their booth at Annapolis. It looks pretty but VERY expensive and only covers coastal US waters. They are "thinking about" expanding to the Caribbean but no promises. Their major source of information is the NOAA doppler radar system so there is no information more than 150 to 200 miles offshore. That means that in most of the area you can use a cellphone modem to get the same thing for free. I believe I will stick with my $200 polar orbiting weather satellite image rig, WEFax, Sailmail GRIBB downloads and Herb. All free. Here is a listing of commercial weather product providers, if anyone feels the need to "shop": http://www.nws.noaa.gov/im/more.htm Jack |
