PHRF Sail Race allows sailing Race Committees to create races, register participants, and score race series. Racers can register online or in the app, and boat position is logged via GPS. Scoring is done automatically with GPS from the racers' phone. The Race Committee can upload custom charts, upload PHRF base ratings with modifications, assign custom ratings, create racecourses, and adjust finish times or add penalties.
