User Reviews and Ratings
★★★★★Additional information detail passage report
We’re circumnavigating and use LuckGrib for all of our routing. Some small additions to the detail report would be really helpful. 1. Wave period. 2. Wave angle relative to the boat. #1 you a,ready show when just looking at specific points. The other is a calculation of Heading(not COG), vs Wave direction.
★★★★★Built in tutorials are A+
All apps should have the amount of care built in to them that LuckGrib has. It has several hands-on tutorials built in that are easy to get to and learn from. This app is easy to use and very useful! It has a ton of features and thanks to the tutorials I can get to them and use them. I am very impressed by the functionality, ease of use, and I know I can use the tutorials if I get stuck.
★★★★★Best Offshore Weather App
LuckGrib has a much broader broad range of weather and oceanographic models to choose from compared to other apps and LuckGrib gives you access to the detailed data if you care to understand the why of the forecast. The ensemble forecasts are great for making clear the variability between the models. The vessel and output parameters are highly customizable. The GUI and output are candy. It’s become my primary tool for planning offshore passages.
★★★★★Best Weather Routing App I’ve found
Using LuckGrib for some boat optimizations for Great Lakes racing and the combination of detailed real-world options and settings and ability to quickly visualize decisions and their ramifications is second to none. Well done!
★★★★★Awesome, easy, affordable
So easy to use. Tutorials are built in and easy to follow. Great app!
