How It Works
Three steps to safer boating
Add your launch sites
Pick from curated boat ramps and marinas, search by name, or drop a pin anywhere on the coast. Save your favorites for instant access.
Check conditions instantly
See depth contours, protected areas, fishing regulations, and Doppler radar alongside real-time wind, waves, tides, and 13 more signals — updated every 30 minutes from NOAA, NWS, and EPA.
Get your go/no-go score
Every signal is weighted and scored for your vessel type and experience level. One clear answer: GO, CAUTION, or NO-GO.
What Boaters Are Saying
“Finally, one app that tells me GO or NO-GO without checking five websites.”
Mike R.
23ft Center Console, SF Bay
“The fishing regulations alone saved me a citation. Season dates right on the site detail page.”
Sarah K.
Kayak Angler, Gulf Coast
“I check it every morning before heading out. The scoring takes the guesswork out of weather decisions.”
Captain Dave T.
Charter Boat, Key West

Scoring Engine
Transparent scoring.
No black boxes.
Every signal is normalized to a 0–100 scale based on your thresholds and vessel type. Then weighted by importance and summed into a single score.
You see exactly why you got your score. Customize thresholds — maybe 4-foot waves are fine for your 28-footer but not your kayak.
Hard vetoes (small craft advisories, gale warnings, high lightning) override the score entirely. Safety first.

Features
Everything you need to decide
Built by boaters who got tired of checking five websites and still getting surprised at the ramp.
Plan ahead
Set a trip for this weekend. We'll monitor conditions and alert you if things change from GO to NO-GO — so you can adjust plans, not discover problems at the ramp.
Compare launch sites
See all your saved sites ranked by today's conditions. The best option floats to the top. Tap into any site for the full signal breakdown.
Smart notifications
Choose your alert level — just GO/NO-GO flips, all caution transitions, or every meaningful change. Defaults to what matters: will your trip still work?
Your vessel, your thresholds
A kayak and a 30-foot sailboat have different limits. Pick your vessel type for smart defaults, then customize any threshold. 4-foot waves might be fine for you.
7-day forecast
Detailed conditions for 3 days, simplified outlook for 4 more. Confidence indicators show when forecasts are reliable and when they're guesses.
Travel time factored in
What's the point of perfect conditions if it's a 3-hour drive? Real-time traffic is factored into your score. Closer sites with good conditions win.
Depth charts
NOAA bathymetric contours overlaid on the map. Tap anywhere offshore for depth readings — know the bottom before you drop anchor or set lines.
Marine protected areas
See no-go zones and protected boundaries on the map. Avoid accidental violations with clearly marked MPAs, sanctuaries, and restricted areas.
Fishing regulations
Season dates, bag limits, and size limits for 60+ species across 6 regions. Know what you can keep before you cast — updated for the current season.
Navionics nautical charts
Embedded enhanced charts with detailed depth contours, routing, and tide station data. The same charts trusted by mariners worldwide, right in the app.
Doppler radar
Live weather radar overlay on the map. See approaching storms and rain bands in real time so you can plan your return or avoid the squall entirely.
Community reports
Rate conditions and share reports with other boaters. See what people are catching, how the ramp looks, and whether the forecast matched reality.
