Routing calculation and wx forecasting website
www.searoutes.com is a new website where mariners can plan voyages, check distances, get information about weather along a sea passage and also calculate estimated fuel consumption. The service is free of charge and open for everybody. Change the Map dropdown to view the route overlaid on Wind, Waves, Surface currents. Change the Departure date to view forecast values for these parameters. A good tool for coast hopping or offshore passages. |
