User reviews

Does not work for wind on port bow

If you use relative wind of 180 or greater (ie on the port bow) the calculation seems to fail.

Rubbish

Calculations are false. The app is a fraud.

Has flaws

Does not calculate wind direction properly. Can be off as much as 200 degrees.

Don't waste u money
