Why It Works
This service was built on the needs of real racing teams β where a missed shift or wrong side of the course isn't academic, it's the difference between winning and trailing the fleet. We've sat in the nav seat, worked under pressure, and know what matters when every degree counts.
Forecasts are always aligned with your race area, boat type, risk tolerance, and onboard systems. Whether it's a simple gut check the night before, or full start-to-finish support, you get what you need β no more, no less.
Available Support Options
- Daily forecast packages before and during regattas
- Live on-call nowcasting via message or call
- Forecast + polar performance feedback loop support
- One-off coaching or tactical weather workshops
Everything is built around your needs. No fluff. No standard templates. Just weather support that makes you faster and smarter on the racecourse.
