A valuable weather “tool” for a location deep in the South Pacific.

The “Niue Yacht Club” has subscribed to this app for the last 10 years. The app was suggested to us by a mariner who used the “route planning” offered by Predict Wind. She suggested trying a basic version as it had sufficient refinements to be useful in our situation.

While all ocean going mariners have sophisticated software , and didn’t need forecasts from us, she suggested that a “heads up” about front passages could serve us well.

This has certainly been the case as “Predict Wind” provides so much valuable and focused safety information for a yacht club that has 20 moorings with a reef fringe only 70 metres away.

Any wind shift with a Westerly component likely, is a cause for increased vigilance .

Not only are the potential wind strengths and direction highlighted, but tidal information, swell heights, timing between crests, but also likely wave height against Niue’s cliff faces.

There is so much more information in various formats, revised and updated regularly. Forecasts are supplied up to a week out.

As with all the vagaries in weather forecasting, “Predict wind “ is reassuringly accurate.

Currently our basic subscription is worth every cent.

Thank you to the gurus behind this software. Amazing tech at our fingertips.

Best wishes to all our sailing friends.

I rely on it

PredictWind is an excellent app. I use it principally for sailing. Where we have our holiday house is on a peninsula only accessible by boat and we have to cross a harbour entrance with strong tidal currents. Our boat is a small (14ft.) trailer sailer with a 5 h.p. auxiliary outboard. A safe crossing of the harbour is predicated on reliable information about clement sea and wind conditions. PredictWind has proven invaluable to this end. Sometimes I am amazed that a predicted change of wind direction or strength occurs almost on the dot. Well done PredictWind.

Best Marine Weather App!

By far the best marina weather app out there, great features that others don’t have along with the best weather models. The top 4 models give a great insight in what is likely to happen, the high resolution PW models are often right on the money for my local sailing areas. I have also used the weather routing and departure planning tools with great success, I totally recommend this app.
