If you spent any time on the water last season, chances are you sent us a note about what would make NautWise even better. We listened—really listened—to the hundreds of Georgian Bay boaters who shared their wish‑lists in 2024, then rolled up our sleeves all winter to turn those ideas into reality. The result is the brand‑new NautWise GoTime Spring 2025 release, live today on nautwise.com. Here’s what you asked for—and what we delivered.
1. A Home Page That Thinks Like You Do
What you told us: “I want to know—at a glance—if today’s a go or no‑go for my kind of boating.”
What we built:
- Go/No‑Go Icons in bold green ✔️ and red ✖️ so you can size up conditions in seconds.
- A 24‑hour / 10‑day snapshot that shows the whole day and week in one sweep.
- Lightning‑fast load times and a cleaner layout so you’re in and out quicker than ever.
2. “Follow Me” Location Tracking
You asked: “Can NautWise move with me as I cruise?”
Now live: Toggle Follow Me and GoTime automatically refreshes to your real‑time GPS position anywhere on Georgian Bay—perfect for island‑hoppers and loop‑cruisers.
3. Fully Customizable Activity Tiles
Your feedback: “Show my activities, not everyone’s.”
Our answer: Pick from 20+ water activities—power‑boating, sailing, kayaking, swimming, SUP, and more—and rearrange or hide tiles so only your favorites appear. One tap reveals current gauges; a double tap pulls up historical trends for the data nerds among us.
4. Visual Upgrades Worth Dock‑Talk
- Radar & Ice Charts right on the dashboard with play / pause / zoom controls.
- A new Sunlight Factor bar that blends daylight, twilight, and dark so you can time your crossings.
- Optional imperial / metric toggles and decluttered numbers (good‑bye, needless decimals).
5. Smarter Data, Less Scrolling
We streamlined advanced weather details into an “expand‑for‑more” drawer—so casual cruisers see just what matters, while data junkies still get every gust, gust, and pressure drop. Water‑level alerts now surface automatically when big swings hit your saved locations.
Why These Updates Matter
Because Georgian Bay doesn’t come with a manual, with GoTime, you spend less time piecing together forecasts from five different apps and more time enjoying that glassy‑calm reach to Hope Island—or knowing to stay tied up when the chop says otherwise. This is your app as much as ours.
