Race smarter. Regatta Mark Tracker gives sailboat racers real-time bearing, distance, and VMG to every race mark, a committee-synced start timer, and automatic race recording with full map and chart replay — on your iPhone and Apple Watch. Built for one-design and handicap racing, from club Wednesday-nights to championship regattas. WIN THE START A countdown timer you can sync to the committee horn with one tap, then it counts up after the gun. Optional voice announcements call the time so you can keep your head out of the boat. NAIL EVERY MARK Live bearing, distance, and Velocity Made Good to the next mark. A red/green port-starboard indicator shows which way to steer, and distance switches to boat-lengths as you close in. RACE COURSE AUTO-PILOT Build a course once — start/finish, your marks, and the number of laps — and let the app drive. It switches between the start timer and mark tracking on its own, advances as you round each mark, and resumes right where you left off if you switch apps or restart. DROPPED MARK (WINDWARD/LEEWARD) Set a windward or leeward mark from the committee boat in seconds: enter a bearing and distance, capture your position, and start racing. TACK PERFORMANCE See which tack is paying. Port vs. starboard speed and VMG are compared continuously, with a lift/knock indicator so you can spot wind shifts as they happen. RECORD & REPLAY EVERY RACE Your races are recorded automatically. Afterward, review the whole race on your iPhone: your track on a map, leg-by-leg splits, and full-screen charts for speed, course, and angle to the mark. APPLE WATCH COMPANION Everything you need on your wrist — bearing, distance, speed, and the start timer — with complications and notifications that open the right screen. Fair winds and following seas.
