## What is Boat or Nope?

Should you take your boat out today?

Boat or Nope turns marine weather into one clear, boat-specific call: Go, Caution, No-Go, or Incomplete. Set your wind and wave comfort limits, choose how long you expect to be on the water, and see how the latest available forecast compares.

PLAN YOUR WATER
• Search supported coastal locations across the Northeast
• Save up to ten locations and move between forecasts with a swipe
• View saved locations and search results on a map
• Keep more than one boat and switch the active boat from My boat

SEE THE DAY DEVELOP
• Review wind, seas, tides, weather, currents where available, and official advisories
• Drag one shared playhead across the day's tide, wind, and seas
• Open any day in the seven-day outlook for a focused forecast
• Check the best forecast window for your boat and selected outing length
• See when a forecast was generated and whether its data is fresh, stale, offline, or incomplete

KNOW THE SOURCES
Forecasts disclose the NOAA, National Weather Service, NDBC, CO-OPS, and AviationWeather providers and stations used. Official advisories include links to their source when available.

MADE FOR THE DOCK
Boat names, make and model, saved locations, and your active location stay on this device in V1. No account is required. To calculate a boat-specific call, forecast requests include your numeric comfort limits and outing duration. Previously loaded public forecast snapshots may remain available when the network is not.

Boat or Nope is a planning aid, not a navigation or emergency-safety service. Marine conditions can change quickly. Always use current official forecasts and advisories, required safety equipment, local knowledge, and your own judgment before and during every outing.
