Just a word of warning. If you do buy any Apple apps, make sure they are suitable for your I phone. Some apps work on Macbooks and not on I phones or I pads and vice versa. FWIW, the boaty apps I've looked at for my Macbook have all seemed pretty useless but I'm sure somebody will be along in a minute to prove me wrong

Anchor Watch works well. It gave us confidence to stay out at anchor overnight for the first time last year - albeit on a lake.
It also alerted us when we got knocked off the anchor during the day, by a passing tour boat.
I've got the Met office ap, and AeroWeather aps
