Author Last Post

Racers,


Another NS-Cruising boat has been added. Thanks to Ted for sharing Maya's track from last night!


The link in the original message below will display the tracks and other data for all five boats that used RaceQs for last night's race.

Racers,

 

Last night there were 4 boats running RaceQs. Thanks to Happy Place, Knot Home and Serendipity for sharing their tracks, in addition to ours.

 

Here is a link to the Race Replay with a focus on Happy Place and Blew Bayou II. Note that you can increase the playback speed from as little as x2 all the way up to x64, to replay a one hour race in under one minute.

I am also providing a screen shot below to show some of the details that anyone can access in RaceQs. The first screen is a summary of the windward leg of the race last night, with information about each selected boat, including the elapsed time for that leg, total distance covered, average speed, maximum speed, etc. RaceQs allows you to view this data for any leg of the race (or the race overall), for any boats that recorded their track.

  

Below that screen is a detailed analysis of one of our tacks during the upwind leg, showing the tacking angle, oversteering amount, minimum speed during the tack, and time lost during the tack, among other details.
