Ratings and reviews

This ap offers some real next-level information! we use it for tracking conditions for swordfish in the Gulf of Mexico and find it absolutely invaluable. Turbidity/chlorophyll levels are critical and impossible to find in even on the interent... having an ap that provides that in the palm of your hand is amazing. can not speak highly enough of this amazing product. kudos gentlemen.

Has been great up until a few months ago. Used this app as a private Capt for years but app will not open correctly, randomly closing, halfway missing screens. For the $ you'd expect it o work better than it has been.

Started about 3 or 4 years ago. Best thing I've done to allow me access to mapping and blue water. Caught two wahoo within one week during a summer of using this app. Caught some of the best mahi of my life within one week using this app. Some of my best grouper grounds were on this mapping. #FinsUp #FinsUpFishin #PCF #PCFC #RipCharts #BullBuster #SimradYachting #LowranceFishing #CmapReveal
