Guest Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Just downloaded the new iPhone app for predict wind. Pretty cool app. 2 min after playing with the free version I signed up for 12 months. The cool thing is it shows both wind models side by side so you know if it lines up it will probably happen but if they don't you can make your own decision Better then this unreliable met service nonsense Has lots of other cool features too. Worth the money I say. Link to post Share on other sites
ab1974 1 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Its great. Have it set up at work, iPhone and iPad. If only it could guarantee sunny skies and warm 15 knot breezes. You go the basic, standard or pro? Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 What did the 12 months set you back, if you dont mind me asking? Link to post Share on other sites
ab1974 1 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Basic - NZ$19 / 1 Year Std - NZ$199 / 1 Year Pro - NZ$499 / 1 Year I went Std as it had better resolution and route planning. Was going to go Basic but they had a 50% off sale a few months ago. Now I'm addicted so guess I will subscribe to the Std again next year so the sale worked! Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Saturday's forecast looks interesting... One model predicts sw and the other ne. What one will win... Certainly makes picking a good bay more difficult Link to post Share on other sites

Certainly makes picking a good bay more difficult Either one would be better than a N or S wind.. I dont fancy a long upwind leg.. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Supposed to be sailing Tauranga to Lyttelton departing on Sunday. What does your app say the wind is going to do around East Cape and Wairarapa coast on Monday? Link to post Share on other sites
