Crap

Mobile phones are the spawn of the devil and should on no account be taken sailing. If they are taken sailing they should be turned off. If they are not turned off they should only be used for making restaurant reservations.

Weather forecasts are preapred by people who are not allowed to say that they are not sure what the weather is going to do, and are obliged by their contract of employment to say something that sounds convincing. This is tantamount to professional lying.

So, adding the two together (mobile phone + weather forecasts), invites eternal damnation and a F7 on the nose.

I only just started using it too. I've found that service provider O2 works with weatheronline.co.uk and you can access that just by browsing onto O2 and then news. There is a marine section. Chimet for example (if that's any use) is on http://chimet.co.uk/wap. I guess that the other Solent stations are similar. Didn't notice where you are sorry.

I'm on the N.E. coast of England rob so solent forcasts not much use to me http://wap.onlineweather.com works really well the forcast is coastal and the same as the met office one giving todays and 24 hour outlook which is useful on a 2 day passage ..... saves money on expensive navtex... ok for twister ken he can afford such things.
