PocketGrib Pros

Easy to use!Lots of useful info for the budding prognosticator/weather enthusiast..RGoff23Version: 1.2.11

Sailing with pocketgribWe left Florida for the Bahamas Jan 2013 for our first out of the country winter cruise. The Bahama Telephone company (Batelco) offers spotty service around the islands. Using Pocketgrib for quick weather updates when we had a signal became very important to us. We found Pocketgrib to be essential. S/V Mardi Gras.Barry&LindaVersion: 1.1.10

PocketGrib Cons

Not usable for Great Lakes.Not usable on Great Lakes..Mcat manVersion: 1.2.11

Used to be excellent but....Now the updates to the forecast are slow to arrive, often 6 or more hours behind, which means as a sailor waiting for the forecast before setting off on a passage you are always looking at older data than from other free apps which offer better graphics and more weather models to compare with. No point in buying this app when better free ones are out there..ShrimpermanVersion: 1.2.11
