PWC Lab helps you record and review personal watercraft rides using your iPhone's GPS. RIDE RECORDING — Record your route, speed and acceleration data, then revisit saved rides, maps and available performance measurements. GPS measurements depend on signal quality and conditions; they are not an independent performance certification. GARAGE — Keep your watercraft profiles, modifications, maintenance information and ride history together. RIDERS & MEET UPS — Discover riding areas, connect with other riders and organize group rides. Location sharing is optional and controlled in the app. LEADERBOARDS — Compare eligible recorded runs by available ski, class and location categories. OPTIONAL LINK HARDWARE — Connect compatible PWC Lab Link hardware for supported engine telemetry. Available data and functions depend on the connected hardware and watercraft. Phone GPS recording can be used without a Link. PWC Lab supports personal watercraft profiles for Sea-Doo, Yamaha and Kawasaki. Hardware compatibility varies. Always ride responsibly. Set up the app before riding and stop in a safe place before interacting with it.
