Boating Suite

I was a previously a very very long term user of this app and purchased evey single upgrade to support the creators. Without much of any meaningful warning the developers locked us loyal customers out of even simply viewing our data from within the app that we paid for and previously purchased unless we paid the extortion fees either monthly or yearly..!! Previously over the years they came out with a newer app and our data was left in the old app versions and was still viewable within the old app. Not this time…or any more, now not any more can the data be even be viewed within the app we paid for. This time now the only option is for us to pay more money or export in a very useless to me looking data in a non usable format to me unless we bought the newest app with additional recurring ransomware type fees. They ruined the access to my data within the app that I have paid for several times in previous upgrades, very unethically wrong that our old data, all my logs and records are no longer available viewable to be accessed within the app we purchased. Very very sad boating season as this was once my most favorite app on my Home Screen. Be cautious of this companies business practices..!!

So far, it does not support MacBook Air which I use at home. Also, the todo does not incorporate due dates, TCO tracking or priority. Checklists to be used for prior-to-trip or pre-launch are non-existent...the very reason one looks to have software for a vessel. Some good points in that it logs trips via GPS. Other than that, much more detail items needed for the cost of the software.

We live on a large lake and boat regularly during our 9ish month long season, and I have had this app for several years. I was real disappointed when the shut down announcement came and had to download data to spreadsheets to retain it. So it was super god news when it came back on line better than ever. Having a place to keep service and repair records, and double checking fuel quantities against boat instruments provide a nice level of confidence. The only reason I did not provide 5 stars is I think the trip log feature needs some improving.
