The Offshore App allows you to seamlessly download multiple GRIB files for your coastal and offshore passages.

Quickly download and view GRIB files, weather routes, GMDSS maps and text forecasts, AIS data and satellite imagery.

Access all the world’s top ranking forecast models for reliable and accurate weather data, including ECMWF, SPIRE, UKMO, GFS and more. Our very own PWG & PWE models offer incredible accuracy and a record-breaking 1km resolution.

In addition to forecasts, the Offshore App also provides a suite of powerful marine tools to save you time and keep you safe at sea.


Weather Routing and Departure Planning is calculated in the PredictWind cloud at the highest resolution. The finished route is then sent back to your boat in an incredibly small file size which is ideal for low bandwidth satellite and SSB connections.

The Offshore App works with Wi-Fi, mobile networks, and most satellite connections using an Iridium GO!, Globalstar or Optimizer device.

Vento e altri rimedi

Credo sia una delle migliori app per chi va a vela. La uso da anni e da poco ho comprato la versione per pianificare la partenza e i percorsi migliori. Mi ha sorpreso positivamente. Moltissime informazioni meterologiche strutturate bene e ben comprensibili.

unbrauchbar

vor Monaten hatte ich schon mal versucht dieses Programm zu nutzen und bin damals schon verzweifelt. Hat sich nichts geändert, allein schon dieses wirrwar mit Benutzername, Email, Passwort. Ist mir einfach zu doof mich durch die verworrenen Gedankengänge der Programmierer zu quälen. Wieso brauch ich zum download einer GFS Vorhersage ein Passwort. Zeitverschwendung. Es bleibt bei Zygrib.

Very handy for quick reference.

First up - terrific customer service. Clearly they care about their customers. I use this on my computer and mobile devices and it’s very hady for quick refernce. Highly recommend it.

Doesn’t work

Running on a fast mac with the latest OS, the app runs and downloads a wind file but doesn’t display the grib data. I confirmed that three files downloaded….but nothing displays. I guess they want you to subscribe to the most expensive service before displaying data.

Predict the Wind Offshore

Tutorials are very poor. This application is not intuitive and doesn’t appear to function. The sample route off the east coast remains on the chart and doesn’t seem to be able to be deleted. Setting routes is clunky and downloading GRIB data via e-mail does not appear to function. Poor information regarding using Iridium 9095A. Using the Iridium Go! doesn’t seem that much better. A very poor application not worth the time trying to get to function. Good idea with dismal execution.

Wish it would work

I keep getting an error message and the program will not open. Sent report to Apple. Would love to use it before a sailing trip, but…… Great Idea, but needs to be fixed. Downloaded update and still will not work.

Great idea, poor execution.

Has the potential to be a great app but it’s definitely not there. Poorly executed. Very expensive on the back end in order to make it useful. Too many issues to make it worthwhile and poor instructions/manuals/tutorials.
