As you can see from other replies, they exist, so your idea was already thunk up and found deserving. Oh, I s'pose this is useless idea #3743 Hardly useless; in fact, probably one of the smarter things one can do. I regularly consult the station sitting on our breakwater and a few data buoys nearby to plan for a weekend. Comparing them to the weather predictions often tells us to go one direction over another, sometimes creating a downwind and down-current ride each way. Usually, we avoid weekends where it's upwind and up-current both directions, so life is lots easier. -- Jere Lull Xan-a-Deux ('73 Tanzer 28 #4 out of Tolchester, MD) Xan's Pages: http://members.dca.net/jerelull/X-Main.html Our BVI FAQs (290+ pics) http://homepage.mac.com/jerelull/BVI/ |

Info for the west coast doesnt help here on the gulf coast. I listen to NOAA weathr radio but it takes forever for them to get around to the marine weather. There ought to simply be a phone number or web site for each data buoy. Currently, I call up the local sailboard club "windtalker" at the coast but its about 30 miles from my boat. |
