    GRIB file sources for IridiumGo

    We are racing in the SORC, which specifically prohibits obtaining information from sources that require paid subscriptions or passwords.  Others have been downloading GRIB files from PredictWind while racing; however, I have confirmed that this is not permitted. What sources and methods does anyone recommend for obtaining updated GRIB files while racing? We have IridiumGo enabled. I presume that we would need to setup for emails to be sent with the data.

    Yes, it can be annoying when peoople ignore the RRS.

    The Saildocs system was designed specifically for rule 41. I think the Exp grib server does too, but I like the idea of delegating the Iridium GO downloads to another app as they can take a long time ...

    Sailmail is the killer app for this.
