			<description><![CDATA[AyeTides has been updated to version 2.0.0. Biggest change was the addition of more current stations in the US courtesy of new NOAA harmonics, but alas we lost two big stations: Boston Harbor (currents), and Delaware Bay Entrance (currents). NOAA has changed these from the standard harmonics-predicatable reciprocating currents to non-harmonic rotary currents, and I can't match the NOAA predictions with the data I have. So I decided to pull these two stations, and all the secondary stations that come from them, resulting in the loss of many stations. I had thought about leaving the stations in and flagging them as unreliable, but a tugboat captain told me that made the entire app unreliable, so I decided that pulling them was the best course. It did not take long for this to be noticed <img src="https://macsailing.net/mybb/images/smilies/sad.png" alt="Sad" title="Sad" class="smilie smilie_8" /><br />
<br />
The other changes were a bug fix for iOS 5 crashing when viewing help, and a very rare bug that caused the app to crash on launch.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Unfortunately the 1.94.2 update that was released just last week has a big problem in it. For existing users it hangs when updating the database, and for new users it mistakenly thinks that it is a pirated application and won't run. I've fixed the problems and have submitted the 1.94.3 update, and requested an expedited review from Apple so hopefully they will get back to me quickly. In the meanwhile I suggest that if you haven't updated to 1.94.2, then don't! Wait for .3 to show up instead. If you've already updated, then don't run AyeTides until the new update is available.<br />
<br />
I hate when things like this happen. And I'm terribly embarrassed too.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hello,<br />
<br />
I thought you should know about a new app we have recently released for iPhone / iPad and Android called Boat Monitor. Boat Monitor allows you to monitor your boat's position from onshore when you leave it anchored or at the dock. Now you can use your existing devices to keep track of your boat's position and receive alerts wherever you are if your vessel drifts outside of a 'safe zone' that you set up.<br />
<br />
We recently got a great review in the Panbo marine electronics blog. Since the article we have released the iOS version (there is a link to it on our website below) and added the ability to set an exclusion zone in the anchor radius, to alert you when the wind shifts, etc.<br />
<br />
Let me know if I can answer any questions. You can find our app by searching for 'boat monitor' in the app store or the Android market.<br />
<br />
All the best,<br />
Kevin<br />

			<description><![CDATA[It has stability fixes and updated harmonics for some European stations. Unfortunately it also removes many current stations in the US, as we no longer match NOAA's predictions. NOAA isn't releasing the harmonics for the current stations, and the ones we have are turning old and moldy - hence they've been removed. When NOAA releases their updates, we'll add the stations back in to the database.<br />
<br />

The biggest change is there's a new page control on the text view for switching quickly between favorites. Tap on it and move back and forth on the favorites. Event icons are back, they were lost in an Apple bug that I had to code around. The geographical list is back too, after having re-added one line of code that I had removed due to an incorrect compiler warning. Oh, and it no longer crashes if you have 'use GMT' turned on and then upgraded to iOS 4. Nice to have that one fixed!]]></description>
