Yacht race tracker/data logger App?

[DavidGrieves]

Hi

Anybody use a phone app to record a yacht race? Is there an App that records track etc then upload it to a PC/laptop/website?

I was thinking of somthing that all boats in a race could download their data to and overlay onto a chart/google earth etc, then maybe replay the race later.

Or is there a GPS data logger that could be given to each boat before the race and downloaded after the race.

Anybody use anything like this? Would need to be easy to use etc...




Cheers

There are trackers used in quite a few offshore races these days. Look for Yellow Brick.

Just found a free GPS iLogger in the iphone App store, obviously not used it yet. Will play tomorrow....
