We've made many backend and frontend upgrades over the past few weeks, and the site is starting to come around. Our traffic grows daily. Our membership count is a bit below where I'd like it to be at this point. Many boards stop users from seeing content until they sign up to grow membership, but I have other plans!

For the beta testers, we're close to testing the tide charts. The data comes from a very popular app, tidesnearme and it will be for NJ, NY, and CT.

Once again I want to thank you all for the great job you're doing in helping us grow the site. There is no way in hell I would even consider a new start-up at this stage, without your support.

I simply can't thank you all enough.

Not that I would expect ME tides, but what about RI, and maybe MA??

Since we all probably have tide apps on our phone and computers, if this "improvement" costs you money, why bother?? I instinctively grab my cell phone when I want tidal info...

We all have choices. I'm concentrating on NY anglers. Eventually we will have a site and app that has a little bit of everything NY.

Everything they need will be right here. No need for multiple apps.

I think tide charts are a good idea, another way to drive traffic towards the site from search engines.

Hadn't thought of that, good point...

Links to "Windy" "NWS" "tides" etc will make this "one stop shopping." Pretty sure I am going to order a tee shirt and hoody for myself from RushOrderTee. Going to keep them simple, small left chest "nyangler.com" logo and large one on the back, both garments in royal blue with white logo. ROT doesn't charge shipping if you don't "rush the order." I bought my Field Artillery Tee from them two years ago and its good quality. However, they aren't cheap (25 for the tee)

George - if you have the choice, try to pick a tide site that gives HWS and LWS, instead of simple HW times. This, so to eliminate the need to do calculations to get the slack times. This is important, if one runs the South Shore inlets on breezy days.
