IMPORTANT NOTE: With this App we display all the AVAILABLE weather data provided by NOAA at each location (buoy station). If you don't see wave height, wind speed, or anything else, please understand it is not our fault but a lack of information at the source. Hence, do not leave (please) a bad review for something we can't fix, as on reviews depends our survival on the market.

Ratings and Reviews
Pretty good
I like the app, I choose to use it mostly to figure out the sea state and swells. The only thing is a lot of the time the swells are not included in the data that is given. I understand that this is not the apps fault that it is what info the buoy is giving but I figure everyone
Everything with it is smooth
Using for a couple of weeks the free version - an ad is displayed every other minute but not as annoying as other reviews say it is… I never got the ads so frequent… perhaps updating the app would do the trick... I guess.

Turned to crap over the winter.
Last summer, I was able to see all of the weather buoys on the great lakes. Finding the relevant ones was a bit of a bother, but once selected ad favorites, it was great. Now, the GLERL buoys are a premium purchase and the app seems to select the buoys that I have checked recently as my favorites (I may check buoys in Florida to see what a hurricane is doing, but most of the time I really don’t care about it).
All in all, this app is now pretty useless and it’s going away.
