Description
Wake Watch is the Boater's Resource for information on no wake zones, boating speed limits and bridges. We have no wake zone and boating speed limit maps for FL, NC & CT. We have bridge heights and opening schedules for FL, GA, SC, NC, VA & CT. The app uses your GPS location to track your boat on the map to keep you aware of what bridges and no wake zones are coming up on your route. NOAA boating charts can also be used as the base map! This is a must have for recreational boaters in Florida and snowbirds cruising south for the winter down the ICW. Boating in FL can be frustrating due to no wake zones and limited bridge openings. Limited bridge openings could mean waits of up to an hour or more. This tool will help you to stay informed and plan accordingly. The app covers all of the waterways in Florida, including the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW), bays, inlets and canals. Also covers key areas such as the Okeechobee Waterway, New River, and more. Includes information from a variety of sources, including NOAA charts, state and federal Manatee Protection Zones, Boating Safety Zones and more. It covers the ICW all the way up to Chesapeake Bay, and all coastal waters and rivers up through VA. Tide station information was also added. For each tide station, the times for high and low tides each day are shown. Tidal heights are included as well. NOAA Coastal Waters Forecasts are now included. These include wave height forecasts up to five days out. NOAA Raster Nautical Charts can also be used as the background maps. Speed and heading data are now included. If your primary GPS/plotter fails, you've got NOAA Charts, speed and heading...Everything you need!
What's New
Updated no wake zones were added in Miami, Ft. Lauderdale and Jupiter, FL.

User Reviews
Purchased app while day cruising North and South Carolina ICW. Not a single No Wake marked in the ICW in either state. Should have just thrown $2 off side of boat.
dont know what the bad reviews are about for $2 (? is that even real money) i have zero idea what a boater could complain about. Bridge heights no wake zones its all there
Doesn’t seem to be at all functional. Doesn’t show any symbols to indicate no wake zones or anything else. Very creaky. A rip off basically. 19876034$
I purchased the app for Bridge Heights. The app keeps sending me all over the world. I zoomed into a bridge and there is no information. After one try, I now cannot zoom in on the area that I’m seeking. This app is terrible.
I’m not sure where the data is gathered but the height for several bridges local in my area of Tampa FL are incorrect. I don’t feel I can depend on the information for my use.
I really like the marine charts imposed onto the map. Very useful for locating navigation markers. The minimum wake zones seem to be accurate for my area and also very useful.
They have had some problems keeping up with IOS changes, but the new version work great. A very valuable tool with data that is almost impossible to get anywhere else. I’d gladly pay a lot more than what it cost.
I bought this because it advertises that it shows heights of bridges over inlets, canals, and bayous... turns out it really just covers major bridges on major thorough-ways which likely have the clearance posted anyway. Disappointing $2 gamble.
This really is a waste of time and money. Very general information
This app is very slow to populate and the zones are not even close to accurate. I just travelled down the ICW in Eastern FL and found this app to be completely useless
