Common questions

What is the sailing window?: Roughly ±2 hours around high water in daylight — when many Morston and Blakeney sailors plan to get on and off the water.
Where does the data come from?: Met Office Weather DataHub for weather and wind, WorldTides for tides (with local harbour adjustments), and Open-Meteo for marine wave height.
Is this for navigation?: No. Use it for planning only. There is no guarantee of accuracy — check conditions yourself and never rely on an app alone on the water.
