Terms

What you get, and what it does not promise.

Bonasea is a planning aid. The most important thing on this page is what it does not replace.

A working draft. The substance matches how Bonasea is actually sold and what it actually claims, but this text has not yet been through a lawyer, and the company registration details and governing law are still to be added before launch.

What Bonasea is — and what it is not

Bonasea is a planning and decision-support aid. It does not replace official nautical charts, publications or regulations, and it does not replace the skipper’s judgement.

The comfort score is an estimate produced from weather models. It is not a promise about the sea. Model uncertainty grows with every day ahead, local effects such as gusts off a mountain or a squall line are not fully captured, and depths are modelled averages rather than a survey of your bay.

The skipper remains responsible for the boat, the crew and the decision to go. Keep your official charts and publications on board, read the warnings issued for the waters you are in, and trust your echo sounder over the app.

Your account

You need an account to use Bonasea. Keep your sign-in details to yourself; the account is for you, not for resale or sharing.

You can delete your account at any time, and what you put in it goes with it.

Plans and payment

The Free plan has no charge. Weekly costs $9.90 for seven days. Charter costs $19.90 for fourteen days. Pro costs $49.90 per year. Applicable taxes are excluded from the listed prices.

Only Pro renews automatically. Pro renews each year unless you cancel the renewal. Weekly and Charter end after their stated periods without automatic renewal. Free has no automatic charges.

Free includes US maps and route planning, a 10-day forecast, live location sharing and night mode, with up to 10 saved routes, 10 saved trip records and 10 favourite points. Free excludes offline maps and weather, anchor watch and global maps. Charter and Pro include full functionality; Weekly includes all functionality except multi-day trips.

Your boats and routes stay on your account after a plan ends, and are there again when you start a new one.

Cancellation and refunds

If you are a consumer in the European Union you normally have fourteen days to withdraw from a distance purchase. Digital content you start using immediately is an exception.

If something is wrong with what you paid for, write to [email protected] and we will sort it out.

A plan bought through the App Store or Google Play is refunded through that store, under its own rules.

Availability

We aim to keep Bonasea running, but we do not promise uninterrupted service. Forecasts depend on public data sources that can themselves be delayed or unavailable, and the app needs a connection to fetch a new one.

Liability

Bonasea is offered as an aid, and is used at your own discretion. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for decisions taken on the water, for damage to a boat, or for loss arising from a forecast that turned out differently from the model.

Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

Changes

If these terms change in a way that matters, we will say so rather than quietly editing the page.
