### 5/5 — App not working correctly

### 4/5 — Mark

*2019-10-28*

My new version won’t let me tap wind details on individual wind direction arrows

### 4/5 — Great weather app

*2014-10-18*

Tells you exactly what you need without cluttering things up with unnecessary data.

### 3/5 — Bug

*2009-09-20*

App is great. Works well. But bug when clicking Wind Forecast at the bottom - quits to desktop after about 8 seconds or so. Its the feature I really wanted too :( Four stars when this is working and five when the interface is polished and there are features I never knew I wanted.
But the app is great and will be great once its working properly. Combine it with Pocket weather and Navionics Australia and its one brilliant set of (cheap) apps for a day on the water (as a quick reference/backup of course). THanks

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2009-09-17*

Just what I need to see what the wind is doing in Hobart :)
