Description
The Offshore App allows you to seamlessly download multiple GRIB files for your coastal and offshore passages.
Quickly download and view GRIB files, weather routes, GMDSS maps and text forecasts, AIS data and satellite imagery.
Access all the world’s top ranking forecast models for reliable and accurate weather data, including ECMWF, SPIRE, UKMO, GFS and more. Our very own PWG & PWE models offer incredible accuracy and a record-breaking 1km resolution.
In addition to forecasts, the Offshore App also provides a suite of powerful marine tools to save you time and keep you safe at sea.
Weather Routing and Departure Planning is calculated in the PredictWind cloud at the highest resolution. The finished route is then sent back to your boat in an incredibly small file size which is ideal for low bandwidth satellite and SSB connections.
The Offshore App works with Wi-Fi, mobile networks, and most satellite connections using an Iridium GO!, Globalstar or Optimizer device.

Ratings and Reviews
PredictWind offshore app hits the spot for serious Cruising
The PredictWind Offshore App is an awesome tool for getting a passage just right whether it’s coastal or offshore and has all the tools to make confident decision making for the skipper easy. Ten out of ten, keep up the good work.
Very good weather app for serious cruising
Works well but I suggest a couple of minor improvements:
In departure planning mode it is not possible to focus on the 2nd, 3rd or 4th day departures while playing the timeline - it always focuses on the first one. You could always pause and go to the others but would be really nice to pick one and have the focus stay on it at any given zoom throughout the timeline.
Would be great to be able to do loading on background considering that it can take hours over Iriduim Go and it would be nice to read a book or do something else during this time.
Keep up the good work guys!!!
Great
Great product overall. However there are some inconsistencies with the performance sometimes graphics do not appear. That said it is light years ahead of anything we have had before in the way of passage planning.
Very happy with the product
