Does anyone use a custom weather service for offshore (canyon) forecasts? If so, what product and who?

I wouldn't call this custom but I find the weather underground site to have a nice interface for buoy, and the standard marine zones.

It's also free

On the pay side,
I use the wxworx weather system. It's updated over the XM satellite system so as the forecast changes during the day, you get it, even at the canyons. It also has detailed info on wave heights and periods, wind, pressure, lightning strikes, nexrad radar, fronts, and sea temps. My company sells them so you can consider this a shameless plug...but I do use it myself. Happy to show you the system on my boat in Cape May if you ever want to take a look.
