Before you boat check Marine Weather Forecasts with FREE Boating Weather Apps to easily check marine weather forecasts so you know before you take your boat out. There are some free apps for your phone to be able to check the weather before you go boating. Easily check the boating weather forecast with some of the best free boating phone apps to know before you go. The marine weather can be different than on land. How do we know if it's a good day to take out the boat? Understanding marine weather forecast and knowing if it is safe to take your boat out. Weather conditions can be very different on the water than the weather on the land and safe boating requires a better check of the conditions before you hook up your trailer.
I am not sure what the best boating weather app might be, but the free apps I highlight in this video have kept me safe. Small craft advisories can be in effect and the weather at your home might be perfect. Is a small craft advisory vs warning something we need to consider when heading out?
A small craft advisory is something we should be aware of and small craft advisories don't show up on our standard phone apps. Don't have a bad day on the water because the waves are too rough. I show the simple process that I follow by using free boat weather checking apps - Boat US app and the Windy app. This video shows you some of the tools to know if it's good weather for boating so that we stay safe on the water!

I know the feeling... My 10 foot kayak can handle 4-6 foot waves I would not think of having my 16 foot bass boat in that.

The reason I like Wayne The Boat Guy, he's just like one of us telling it like it is and my wife and I are learning from him. I have a list of your videos and these will keep us safe on the water. Wayne what you're doing is helping newbies on the water. Thank you for keeping my wife and I safe. Gil in Massachusetts

Really enjoy your films they are sensible. One thing I learned years ago is....it can go wrong very quickly and then it's too late. The loud ones never last, plenty of their boats on the bottom becoming artificial reefs. You are right to promote safety above all else.

Today there's no excuse to be surprised by bad water conditions. There's plenty of apps, live cameras that show you exactly what the water is like now and 6... 8 hours from now. You have no excuses. With that being said, I don't suggest you just never not go out while there's bad water conditions. How else are you going to learn to handle a boat in rough waters ? So next time the water isn't perfect, still go out... Stay near the ramp... Shore .. And learn the water. Obviously I'm not saying go out in the middle of a storm .. But right before a storm.. A little chop ...yeah.. Go hang around near the ramp .

You didn't mention the most dangerous condition - which is right next to you. Rain water pouring into rivers and creeks are after rain stops (so, unexpected). Rain water pouring into creeks carries faster currents, eddies, and debris into creeks and rivers. Creeks and rivers - I think - is where most deaths occur. They get caught up in debris, fast currents, and can't get out. It happens after rain stops, maybe as much as the next day, so they are 'unseen, unexpected'. Know the flood and rain water patterns where you're boating. --- also, kayaks are much different than boats. Usually, they are much more seaworthy. A 21' kayak can sail the world's oceans - but a 21' motor boat is risky at sea. Wind and waves can blow a 21' motor boat over - but not a 21' kayak. --- Like your videos! Love small boats! I live in Seattle off Puget Sound. Lily Pad Kayak mostly, I rarely go on salt water or big lakes.

Well - boating deaths. And wind can knock a kayak over, but an experienced well trained kayaker can quickly turn their boat right side up again while not moving from their seat, and continue on. Even if they fall out, they can train to right the boat and climb back in.

Often a bigger boat means a boat that is harder to push home on the 9.9 aux. engine.There are web cams you can go thru and see the ocean as well .Big Wave Dave for ex. Web cam for Dallas rd. Victoria and Gordons beach 1 and 2 in SOOKE. Me I am lucky enough to be able to look out my window at the fishing grounds! It can be blowing 16K and be flat calm if tide and wind run same way.Watch out when tide turns! dont know if you can view big Wave Dave from U.S.A. Great stuff. I go in such a direction that I will get blown back home provided weatherman is accurate in his forecast.I have heard some old buddies refer to the weatherforcasters as paid liars!Hard to get it right 100% CHEERS from Canadian westcoast!

As always thanks for sharing!!! Here on the Chesapeake Bay, the wind seems to always blow either up or down the bay so we usually have a better ride in one direction.

Hey Wayne, do you check out your viewer's videos? I'd appreciate your input if you don't mind. Also Thanks for the weather app ideas I'm looking into those and the speedometer app you used in a previous video as well.

In the Chesapeake Bay, it seems that when the winds are going North or South it can be rougher waters. In areas like bays and rivers leading into them, The river might be calm and nearly windless and then when you hit the bay it's breezy

Something I missed in your story, wind direction. I’ve been sailing sailboat and open motorboats for 55 years on bigger lakes here in the Netherlands. The first thing to check, are you on the windward or on the leeward side. It might blow 15 knots, but on the windward side you won’t see that much waves. On the other hand, 15 kts on the leeward side will give waves, probably to high for an 20 ft open boat. Second, draft. Deeper water more and higher waves.

Every locale has some special weather conditions. One of the best things is to talk to old-time, locals. Weather is a subject everyone is willing to talk you up about, even if you come from the other side of the globe and need a translator.
