Essential for Sailors & Race Committees

TackTracker is one of those rare sailing apps that feels like it was built by people who actually race. Instead of trying to be a generic boating app, it focuses on everything that matters before, during, and after a race.

Creating races, registering boats, and managing starts is incredibly straightforward for race committees. As a racer, the GPS tracking and post-race analytics are the real standout. Being able to compare tracks, analyze maneuvers, and see exactly where time was gained or lost adds a whole new level to improving performance.

The developer is actively adding meaningful features, and each update makes the app noticeably better. It’s polished, easy to use, and solves problems that normally require multiple tools or spreadsheets.
