      Hi tech team,
      If you could add wave period to the boat distance and route data when viewing a route that would elevate this whole app from a sailers point of view. Currently you have temperature, rain/snow, wind, wind gusts, wind direction, waves in ft with direction. If you could add wave period as well you have no idea how much it make the app.
      Sailers don't really care too much about temperature and rain/snow.

      What I really want to see when plotting my sailing course data wise from Windy.
      -Wind speed and direction.
      -Wind gusts
      -Wave height, direction and period.
      -Swell height, direction period.
      Any other information is nice to have but these points is what a sailer really wants to know at a glance over the period of their trip when predicting the trip.

      In my opinion if you do this, or make the data hub fully customisable you will turn users in to raving fanatics for the Windy App, and I have a lot of weather apps.

      Anyway do this for me and I'll do a free Youtube/social video/s raving on how I can use your app to predict a sailing trip and all the physics at play from planning the pre trip to whats actually happening on the water. Picking weather window for a safe and enjoyable passage.

      Keep up the good work.

      Kind Regards Sea Salt Sam on his floating home.
      Stay Golden

        @Chimere Hello, we can note this into our upcoming plans, however, right now there is no specific plan to handle this on our end.
