Wind Router.
Browser weather routing for sailboats. It combines a boat's
ORC polar with live forecast weather to suggest the fastest
route between two points — respecting the best wind angles and steering clear
of land and shallows — all drawn on a nautical chart. Built first for
S/Y Astarte .

Your boat, your numbers Choose the boat and it loads her ORC certificate — every speed on the route comes from your real polar, not a guess.
Pick the forecast ECMWF, ICON-EU, GFS, or “Best” to auto-pick. “met.no” shows when your model has no data for these waters.
Two models, two tracks Each weather model gets its own route. Where the lines split, the forecasts disagree — plan for that spread.
Forecast wind Wind across the whole area for the hour you’re viewing — arrows give direction and strength at a glance.
Conditions at the boat Follows the boat as you scrub the timeline: true and apparent wind, boat speed, elapsed hours, local time.
Sail it through Step or play along the passage to see where you’ll be at any hour before you slip lines.
Night legs & ETA The band shades darkness — see which stretches you’ll sail in the dark — plus departure and arrival times.
Best sailing angles Your boat’s ORC polar. Marked angles are the highest you’ll point upwind and the deepest you’ll carry downwind in this breeze.
