One verdict, your boat
A 22′ center console and a 14′ skiff do not share a bad day. Each launch site gets one GO / CAUTION / NO-GO planning score against the vessel and thresholds you set.

One page.
Everything the
water is doing.
The conditions page for your launch site gathers wind and gusts, swell height and period, tides, water temperature, marine warnings, solunar windows, and the applicable state rules — and turns them into a score for your vessel.
What you're looking at here isn't a mockup. It's the app itself, captured from the Pillar Point Harbor conditions page.

04/The score
0–100 · tuned to your vessel
A verdict you can audit.
Every score is a weighted sum over the signals that matter at your launch site — wind, waves, warnings, visibility, lightning. Each one shows its raw value, its severity, and its weight, so the number is never a black box.
- Tuned to your boat. A 14′ skiff and a 24′ center console get different thresholds for the same forecast — set them once, every score uses them.
- Vetoes, not averages. A marine warning or lightning risk can cap a day at CAUTION or NO-GO outright, regardless of the rest of the board.
- The why is one tap away.Every verdict links to the signal breakdown behind it — see exactly which input moved the number.

05/Timing
Solunar + tide windows · per site, per day
The score says whether.
The windows say when.
A GO day still has better hours than others. Each launch site gets its solunar major and minor windows plus the tide cycle for the day — computed from the site's coordinates, not a generic regional table.
- Major & minor windows per site, per day — the two periods traditional solunar tables mark strongest, plus the tide movement that concentrates bait.
- Tide phase on the same strip — see whether a window lands on incoming or outgoing water before you pick a launch time.
- Week-ahead with Pro — the 7-day fishable calendar compares your saved sites and surfaces the next day that fits your thresholds. Forward days use wind and weather only; waves and water conditions are not forecast.

06/The trip loop
From driveway to dock and back
T.01
Schedule
Pick a launch site, a date, and a vessel profile. Your trip keeps its condition guidance attached — nothing to rebuild the morning of.
T.02
Monitor
Saved trips are re-checked against the latest public data until you cast off. No refreshing, no rebuilding the forecast by hand.
T.03
Flip alert
When a monitored trip's status flips — GO to NO-GO, or back — you get the push. You adjust plans, not discover problems at the ramp.
T.04
Float plan
Share a float plan link with your crew before launch: site, window, vessel, and expected return — readable with one tap, no account needed.
T.05
Check-in
Set an expected return and a shore contact. Come back and check in — or, past your window by 2 hours, we escalate once: push to you, email to them.
AFTER THE TRIP
A logbook that writes itself
Each past trip from the last 60 days becomes a draft entry automatically. Every entry remembers the day — conditions, craft, and miles — with room for species, counts, sizes, and photos.
Boat-track replay
Watch the trip back on the map: your GPS track with speed, time-interpolated position, and a scrubber. Tracks are kept 30 days — longer once saved to a logbook entry.

08/FAQ
Straight answers
Questions, answered.
The short version of the manual. Anything else — ask us directly.
What does the score actually mean?
A 0–100 planning number for one launch site on one day, computed from public conditions against the thresholds you set for your vessel. 0–39 renders GO, 40–59 CAUTION, 60–100 NO-GO. It is a planning input, not a guarantee — you are always the captain. READ HELP ↗
Where does the data come from?
Public feeds: NOAA and NWS for wind, waves, tides, visibility, warnings, and forecast grids; official state-agency pages for fishing regulations. Every rule row links to its source, and the catalog re-checks source pages on a weekly schedule. READ HELP ↗
What can force a NO-GO?
Two mechanisms. A signal past your vessel's threshold — say 4 ft waves on a kayak profile — drags the composite toward NO-GO, and several breaches together land it there. Veto signals (marine warnings, lightning risk) can cap a day at CAUTION or NO-GO outright, whatever the rest of the board says. READ HELP ↗
What does Pro add?
The 7-day fishable calendar: forward days compare across your saved sites using wind and weather only — waves and water conditions are not forecast. Pro also surfaces the next day that fits your thresholds, so you can plan around it. $39.99/yr, billed annually.
Which launch sites are covered?
A curated catalog of US coastal launch sites, plus cited fishing regulations across 23 states and territories. You can also add your own site — pick a state and the rulebook resolves for it.
What happens to a trip I schedule?
It gets monitored. Until you cast off, the trip re-checks against the latest data; if its status flips, you get a push alert. Before launch you can share a float plan link, and after launch the check-in clock runs — pass your expected return by 2 hours and we escalate once: push to you, email to your shore contact. READ HELP ↗
Can I use it from my phone?
Yes — it is a web app that installs to your home screen from the browser and keeps working on a flaky signal. Native mobile apps are in testing and will carry the same saved sites, trips, and alerts.
