Sail Racing
You can use the device to help you cross the start line of a race exactly when the race begins. When you
synchronize the regatta timer in the sail racing app with the official race countdown timer, you are alerted at
one-minute intervals as the race start approaches. When you set the starting line, the device uses GPS data to
indicate whether your boat will cross the start line before, after, or at the correct time to start the race.
Setting the Starting Line
