I was showing a fellow NOAA'a weather map with wind and wave hieghts etc. Another fellow showed me this one

scroll down to waves etc. Animate for future forcasts. Good site
Frank,
I like the passageweather site (http://sailfar.net/forum/index.php/topic,1268.msg28693.html#msg28693) for shore based, "yes I have Internet Access" planning.
And...they have pretty good Gulf Stream maps, too.
With no means to get the Internet underway, however, that great resource is out for me. I've become a fan of the NOAA/NWS weather text forecasts and maps broadcast on single side band short wave.

an alternative to passageweather.com is:
weatheronline.co.uk
got all the charts, including isobaric and wave heights....slow download on a slow internet connection, but that goes for them all
