Mad Mariner is proud to announce that WxWorx, the data provider for XM WX Satellite Weather, is our latest advertiser.

XM is the nation's leading sattelite-delivered weather service. It gathers weather data from the Department of Defense, the National Weather Service and commercial sources; interprets and  verifies the information; and then packages it for distribution via satellite.

That means sophisticated weather data can be available onboard in real time, viewable on a computer, a chartplotter or another mobile device.

XM WX Satellite Weather offers several subscription pacakges to suit a variety of budgets, and all less than $50 a month plus activation fees.

If you are still reading text forecasts or listening to the VHF, take a look at the latest technology.
