Super neat. Not sure exactly how good I am at reading it yet.

Might be nice to have some more cities on the map so you can figure out what the current is doing out in front of your port.

But otherwise, very cool.

I emailed them and asked if they can add more cities.

Alright, I got a response and sent an updated cities file covering west michigan. Hopefully it'll go live tomorrow.

Nice. Now if they could figure out a map for the deep currents, that would be really nice.
