Watch app to make available selected sailboat instrument features on your wrist via an Apple Watch. Relevant activities before the start signal (set pin and committee boat locations to define start line, set countdown timer and sync to committee boat time.) Also includes ability to manage waypoints on companion iPhone app (click on the map) and download waypoints to the watch for "GoTo" navigation during the race. The iPhone app includes views of what the watch will display, in case you don't have a watch.
This application is NOT intended to replace GPS or other key navigational functions and should not be relied on as the sole source of navigational information.
