## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Areas covered

*2017-06-24*

App doesn't even have Delaware River, Bay or Chesapeake/Del canal. Sorry I wasted my money.

### 1/5 — Coverage

*2017-02-08*

Does not cover the U.S. Virgin Islands

### 1/5 — Poor app for iPad

*2013-09-23*

No landscape mode.  Forces splash screen on every open.  Poor

### 1/5 — Landscape doesn't work. App kills music.

*2013-06-24*

Has great potential, but just doesn't live up to it.

### 1/5 — Same as iPhone app

*2013-05-03*

Just purchased Boat Weather HD because it showed up in IPAD section of App Store.  I already had Boat Weather bit did not like that I always had to use in in portrait mode....I figured HD for ipad would be in landscape mode.   It is not.  It is the same thing as the app I already had.  What a waste of money - very misleading.

### 1/5 — No information for Lake Champlain

*2011-07-10*

Crashes regularly and no information for Lake Champlain. The largest fresh water lake outside of the great lakes. A waste of money for me.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2011-02-02*

Crashes constantly. Worthless app. Bastards took my $2.99

### 1/5 — True junk

*2010-12-31*

This app is so shallow it's hard understand why anyone would want to use it..   It's truly the same info one can get from the weather channel.  A useless expenditure.

### 1/5 — Closes in a couple seconds

*2010-07-22*

This app worked once on my iPad but now only opens and closes in a couple seconds.  Very disappointing.

### 2/5 — Nothing special

*2011-07-02*

It is the exact data and screens you get from the NOAA graphical forecast.  There is much better info on the NOAA text forecast page.  Should be free, not worth paying for.

## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great but...

*2012-09-27*

Does not work with iOS 6.  A great app when it works. 
Edit 1.  The app was updated for iOS 6 and it works great.  Now it is a 5.

### 5/5 — OS6 Killed It

*2012-09-25*

Was an excellent app until OS6.  Won't work at all now and no help in sight.  Please issue a fix!!!!  Thank you.

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2012-04-13*

New app update with the refresh button is nice. Use this app all the time - easy marine forecast without all the radar, tides and clutter I don't need. Nice job!

### 5/5 — Great weather app

*2011-06-22*

This app allows me to choose the great lakes region and show the forecast with a wind and wave report just like the NOAA marine near shore forecast.  It's exactly what boaters need and exactly what I was looking for.

### 5/5 — Great resource

*2010-12-16*

This app is a great resource. Gives you the information you need in a concise format. A must have for all avid boaters.

### 4/5 — This app no longer works

*2018-03-04*

iPad and iPhone no longer work with this app.   I think it needs to be updated. 
    Good app though.   Dennis.

### 3/5 — OS 6

*2012-09-21*

I liked this app but does not work after updating to OS 6.0. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling but no dice. What's up?
