Could you build this?
Partial Standard mobile GPS waypoint logging is easy to vibe code, but reliable offline nautical tile caching, GPX parsing, and aggregating accurate marine tides/currents/weather require specialized data feeds.
What it would actually take: The mobile app would use React Native or Swift with Mapbox/MapLibre handling offline vector tiles. The challenging part involves integrating proprietary marine NOAA/Copernicus weather and tidal prediction datasets, managing offline tile caching at scale, and implementing accurate dead-reckoning navigation algorithms.
