Boater Briefer

Marine weather & fishing

Free

Boater Briefer turns NOAA marine weather, tide predictions, and saltwater fishing data into a single daily briefing — built specifically for recreational boaters and coastal anglers. WHY BOATER BRIEFER • Narrated audio briefings — listen to today's conditions while you rig up. Captain's Call summarizes wind, sea state, tides, and visibility in one short, hands-free read. • Tides done right — 24-hour curve, hi/lo times, monthly calendar, and live countdown to the next change. Subordinate stations supported. • Marine-grade weather — wind, waves, sea state, water temperature, marine alerts, and multi-day NWS forecasts. Plain language, not raw codes. • Offline-first — last-known briefing and tide data work when you're out of signal. The app re-syncs when you're back ashore. • Saltwater fishing — species regs by state, fishing windows scored by tide, sun, moon, and barometric pressure. Photos for ID. Closed seasons hidden automatically. • Marine charts — NOAA ENC overlay on a MapLibre vector basemap. Pinch, zoom, and explore harbors, channels, and waypoints. • Multi-location carousel — your GPS plus saved waypoints, swipe between them like Apple Weather. • Thousands of locations — Every U.S. coastal state is in, plus the Gulf and Pacific islands — wherever NOAA runs a tide station and the NWS issues a marine forecast. PRIVACY YOU CAN VERIFY • No ads. No tracking. No accounts. • Location is used only to fetch your briefing and never linked to an identity. • Crash and performance data are anonymized and can be turned off in Settings. PERFECT FOR • Day cruisers, sailors, and yacht owners • Saltwater anglers (striper, bluefish, fluke, tuna, and more) • Harbormasters and dock crews who want a quick read on conditions • Anyone planning a coastal trip, kayak run, or fishing window GETTING STARTED Open the app and grant location once — your briefing loads in seconds. Swipe right to add waypoints (Salem Harbor, Bluefish Channel, your home dock, anywhere on saltwater). Each waypoint gets its own carousel page with tides, weather, fishing, and a tap-to-listen audio briefing. DATA SOURCES NOAA Tides & Currents, National Weather Service, Open-Meteo Marine, NDBC buoy network. The same authoritative sources commercial maritime tools use, packaged for the rest of us.
