BoatNGo questions, answered

What is BoatNGo?

BoatNGo is a boating and fishing app for iPhone and Android. It brings your boat profile, marine weather, maps and fishing plans together, so you can review conditions before heading out.

How does the boating score work?

The score considers your vessel setup alongside conditions such as wind, gusts, waves and wave period. Review the conditions behind the score and the eight-hour trip forecast; conditions and forecasts can change.

What is new in FishNGo?

The new FishNGo experience follows four steps: Explore, Species, Setup and My trip. Choose your fishing area and search radius, compare numbered opportunities and species, review how to fish a spot, and check your boating forecast. The screenshots show the version 4.1.6 update, which is being reviewed by the app stores.

What do the fishing percentages mean?

They express an estimated species match based on available regional and environmental evidence. They are planning estimates, not a measured chance that you will catch a fish. Local conditions, season, technique and bait all matter.

Can I use BoatNGo on lakes and coastal waters?

BoatNGo supports freshwater and saltwater planning in many regions worldwide. Forecast, species, depth and chart detail depend on the location and available data. Choose your actual spot in the app to see the information available there.

Will every lake have depth contours?

The map shows available chart and depth information. Detailed contours, reefs and wrecks are displayed where the underlying source provides them; coverage is not identical everywhere.

What is included in the forecast?

Review an eight-hour trip window and seven-day marine planning, with wind, waves and wave period where available. The app also provides weather, tide, radar and other marine context depending on the location and subscription.

Does BoatNGo replace official forecasts or navigation equipment?

No. Use BoatNGo as a planning aid alongside official weather and marine forecasts, charts, local rules and your own judgment. It does not replace a chartplotter, radar or sonar.

Where can I download the app and see pricing?

BoatNGo is available through the Apple App Store and Google Play. The store checkout shows current subscription pricing, renewals and any trial eligibility. Visit our Download page for the official store links.
