Cruising With SailFast.
Although SailFast grew out of a desire to improve offshore racing performance it
is equally valuable for improving the safety and enjoyment of offshore cruising. We don't offer a special cruising version of SailFast. We think you will find all SailFast features useful.
Use SailFast to -
- Acquire detailed weather and ocean forecasts for up to 16 days in the
future.
- Plan for the best departure times and weather windows.
- Plan routes to avoid severe wind or wave conditions.
Our cruising customers comment:
"I will be using
Sailfast for passage planning rather than racing. The 1st leg is from
Brisbane-Australia to Auckland-New Zealand ..."
"I used sailfast with Saildocs gribs for passage planning purposes. It
was very useful along the coasts of Mozambique and South Africa where
you have the Aquilas current and southwest winds complicating
passages. There timing is very important to get to next harbor as
weather windows are normally at best 2 or 3 days." - Richard Kolomeychu, S/V Petite Ourse
