Great app. Would like to have azimuth of sunrise and moonrise. Also wind represented by arrows instead of cardinals on tables.

I'm a long time and very happy customer. The basic price plan costs less than a dollar per week. For anyone who needs accurate wind forecasting, the accuracy and presentation of the 1km model data, is so good, that you cannot seriously look at a public model again.

I looked at the pricing to upgrade in order to see something vaguely useful. Your pricing is a joke hahahahahaha 》》》 World Leader in overcharging. EDIT: ref your reply, I'm a cruising sailor on a very tight budget. Your pricing might be okay for huge shipping companies. Have you looked into how many cruising sailors are out there? It's a huge market, which you've priced yourselves out of.
