Description

Everybody knows that catching the start is essential in sailing. Finally there is a great Sailing Watch available for the iPhone and it works great with the Apple Watch.
This app provides a timer, speed and course monitoring with unique features and unparalleled ease of use for sail racing. When you hear or see a race signal just press Gun! - You can adjust if it is a 5, 4 or 1 minute warning afterwards! And if it was just a loud noise from a flapping sail and not a race signal you can easily jump back to the previous timer.
It defaults to the standard ISAF 5,4,1,0 sequence but it can handle arbitrary countdown from 30 minutes down to 0
Now you can focus on other things like wind (directly in the app - simply configure your own favourite weather on the config page) and other boats potentially giving you yet another edge!
** Please read more on the info "i" page in the app **
You can enable GPS and get Speed over Ground (SOG) and Course over Ground (COG) presented next to the timer to help you keep track of wind and speed in the seconds before and after start. The Wind page shows a graph of COG and SOG which can help you track wind shifts.
It is designed to work on iPhone with or without Apple Watch and a lot of people seem to be using it with iPads as well.
TIP: On the Watch it is recommended that you (at least temporarily) activate Resume to Last Used App so that you just have to raise your wrist to get the time left:
Settings->General->Activate on Wrist Raise->Resume to: Last Used App
The iPhone application also contains a convenient reference to starting signals and customisable local weather information.
HealthKit integration:
The app provides limited HealthKit integration and can optionally start a Sailing Workout activity during race start.

Manually add waypoints

MoBoing on

Is there a way to manually add and store waypoints for future races? Our local clubs have placed permanent marks for racing. I have the gps coordinates and looking for a way to add and save marks then be able to hit a go to function after each rounding. Only Garmin seems to have this ability and it’s so complicated every sailor hates it! Thank you for all your work on this. It really offers a lot of great things.

Use it on my watch. Countdown display freezes but the count continues behind the scenes. Tap on it and the display jumps to the correct time. Glitch. Also sometimes keeps running even though you’ve reset. Display goes back to 5 (or whatever) but the count continues. Glitch.

Seems to work but I can’t shut it off

KS SKIBUM on

The basic functionality of the app seems to work. I have only tested it in an open area while walking since I’m not sailing today. The GPS resolution appears to be about 5 meters with clear sky so that’s good enough for me for now. The “time early / late” to line seems to be glitchy. Setting the TC and Pin was easy enough. A “pin set” positive feedback would be a nice addition. I see no way to delete “races” without deleting all my data. It would be nice to be able to click on specific races and delete them. My biggest concern is that I can’t seem to completely shut the app off even when I follow the directions. The timer remains persistent on my Apple Watch even when I kill the app on my phone. It will be interesting to test the app on the water to see if it behaves any differently than walking around on a field.

It’s a great app, but I can’t turn it off - How do you shut it off?

Jnweis on

United States

It’s a great app, but I don’t possess the ability to turn it off. I shut it down on the iPhone and the iwatch and it starts up automatically immediately. Very frustrating as I’m no longer racing and I don’t want to look at the RaceTimer all the time. How do you turn it off?

Best sailing app ever

keoweeguy on

United States

I’ve been using this app for one design racing. I use the timer on my Apple watch and it’s terrific. The app is updated regularly with great customer service and troubleshooting. If your class allows, it’s got very nice start line graphics and speed and CMG stats. Get the app and the Gold subscription.

Great race app!

Love this app!! It is so racer oriented! Having the ability to add or subtract a second or minute is so helpful when you miss the gun. Question—I went to use it today and don’t see the option to enter an ‘exact start time’. Did something change? I no longer have the “settings” page on my watch.
