    Crashes on startup. Fix please!!!

    Looked great / worked great on free version. Then it stopped working, which I assumed it was a limit of the free version, so I paid for it. Now it doesn't crash but does not show any data (no forecast, no current conditions, etc.). On reinstall the next quirk was that it only showed forecast -- no current conditions or recent data. Now it is back to crashing. In short, don't waste your time or money.

    One of our favorite apps! Used to plan sailing for our Hobie 16. We trailer to water so we have to depend on good info before we head out so we don't waste time. Previous short term stability issues resolved thanks :-)

    Was really useful when it worked, but now crashes when it attempts to load a data source. I'm a kite boarder and software developer in the Seattle area. If the original developer has no plans to update this, how about they share the code and I'd fix this? Contact me.
