14 Positive User Reviews for LuckGrib
Best Grib app out there
Intuitive, well designed and affordable. The oceanic current gribs are not easy to find on internet, but here they are. Thank you!
Awesome
Far and away the best GRIB viewer available on iOS. Also the Mac version is killer much better than anything available for windows.
LuckyGrib
My initial investment of time to learn this app has revealed the many facets and flexibility in using the LuckGrib as opposed to other apps in this field. I especially like the ability to modify and then view the many aspects of sailing that are important. The more I use the LuckyGrib the more confidence I have in it’s projections. On a recent passage LuckyGrib was the most accurate while other app were significantly off. Thank for a great app. Sincerely William Lippincott
The ‘thinking sailor’s’ weather router.
I dumped Predict Wind for this platform (iOS and MacOS) and never looked back. It is worth your time to read Craig’s entire site and absorb all that is going on in the background to better understand it’s capabilities. His “manual” is as thoughtfully written as his software development. Easy to use with a UI that was clearly made for the Apple ecosystem (i.e. not a PC carryover).
Great Weather / GRIB App
Super interface with lots of features and easy downloading from a wide variety of models. Routing tool is powerful.
Absolutely splendid
A very complex complete app. It gives the used a easy to understand view for routing for a offshore voyage. I have used the routing feature on some local 1-2 day trips and find it to be quite accurate and easy to follow. Pretty steep learning curve (very complex subject) but excellent YouTube videos aided me in basic understanding.
Very impressed
I wanted a weather app with routing but I don’t want to pay a subscription.
This checks all the boxes
My only fear is the developer will give up on this app since it’s a pretty small market. Please keep the updates coming!!
Simply Amazing!
Craig has created an amazing tool, with features not found elsewhere. His thoughtful inclusion of many different views useful for passage planning (motoring vs sailing, day vs night, waves, etc) are usually spot on for what I want. And the ability to vary the departure time, oh my! You need a boundary line to avoid Frying Pan shoals? No problem. Or to force the route through the narrow Chesapeake Bay Bridge tunnel openings? Sure! And all data is free. Just pay once. I love it.
Excellent App
I’ve only invested in the GRIB portion but intend to get the weather routing soon. Beautifully done application obviously based on expertise in both sailing and meteorology. Well worth the price.
Best weather model app!
Great app. I do wish you would bring back the SPC model (Not sure where from), to show % of tornado, hail etc.
Update: why cannot i get cloud levels in the gfs fekm noaa? Inselect them hut they do not show.
Wonderful app, superb support
Easy to use and excellent routing output. Compares very favorably to other routing apps. Must have. Support is top.
Superb weather app
Extremely versatile tool for weather analysis and passage planning and routing. It’s not as automatic as PW, but is faster and offers better control of parameters and views. A great value for serious sailors.
Sailor’s superb routing and planning tool
Steve has created a great app for sailors. Try out his 14 day trial!
Great App.
Recently purchased the app and been using it aboard and underway for a week. Very functional and well thought out and the tutorials excellent as well. About to do an ocean passage and its already helped immensely.
