LocalGuide Meets Weather

Plan Your Next Stop with LocalGuide
We’ve all asked ourselves some version of this:
“Where can I anchor tomorrow that’s protected, has fuel nearby and somewhere good to eat?”
A simple question. But answering it? Countless open tabs, an anchorage review Thomas left in 2012, three weather apps, some quick math and trying to remember what your boat neighbor Sally told you about this spot four years ago.
There must be an easier way…
LocalGuide just got a lot smarter. It brings together places, weather, anchorage protection, distances, real routes and boaters’ logbook entries, with information constantly updated as new trips and local knowledge are shared in SeaPeople. Ask a question and get tailored information for your next stop in seconds, drawing on real-time forecasts and the community’s latest experiences.
Get Answers In Seconds
Sound familiar? “Where can we get fuel?” “Is there somewhere sheltered to anchor?” “And please tell me we’re not eating pasta on board again.”
Ask LocalGuide. From finding your next anchorage to dinner ashore, it draws on 15 million miles of real trips, 50,000 places and live weather to help you figure it out.
“Find us a protected anchorage for tomorrow night with fuel nearby”
“Where can we stop to provision along the way?”
“Where could we go next, considering tomorrow’s weather?”
Get your answers in seconds, all in one place.
Find An Anchorage With The Forecast In Mind
An anchorage can look perfect in photos and have glowing reviews (from years ago…). But that doesn’t tell you whether it makes sense for tomorrow night.
Wind direction, swell and the protection an anchorage offers all matter when choosing where to stop. A place that was calm during another boater’s visit may feel very different when you arrive.
LocalGuide takes weather and anchorage protection into account to help you find options suited to the forecast conditions. So you can find somewhere to anchor based on when you actually plan to be there.
Where To Next?
Choosing a destination is only part of the plan. There’s also the distance to get there and what the weather is doing along the way.
LocalGuide helps you plan around the weather. Together with Route Intelligence, it brings forecasts along the way together with real routes taken by real boats, helping you decide where to go and when.
Maybe you’re looking for a short hop with a provisioning stop. Maybe you’re planning the next leg of a longer trip. Having routes, places and weather connected makes it easier to weigh your options without starting your research over in another app.
Your Next Stop, Planned.
A peaceful anchorage, a full tank and a good dinner shouldn’t take five apps and 27 open tabs to figure out.
Whether you’re planning tomorrow’s outing, a week away or the next stop in a much longer adventure, LocalGuide helps you bring the pieces together.
Open LocalGuide in SeaPeople and ask about your next stop. You bring the questions. LocalGuide helps with the plans.
