Software: raceqs

Playing with RaceQs it seemed to get some good data from our race last night. It's estimating time lost on tacks, has a clear display of speed over time.

It's not perfect - last night it failed to record the time lost on a gybe and on my previous recording didn't get the tack points or estimated wind. FAQs suggest this was because the phone wasn't mounted (it was, yet we do get estimated wind from last night when it wasn't!).

What looks really interesting is if you can get multiple boats using it at the same time then it'll record differences between them, show wind ladders etc.


I'm not sure what links work with and without a login:
