2 - Graphical tool for, at least, measure distances from boat and angles.

Thank you Zappe!

Just uploaded a new version to the play store:

Added weather update info when logging in to a race and after a weather update.
Added info about the weather, angle and distance to the aim point in steering mode.

If you ever want to install an older version for any reason all versions are available from here:

zappe - absolutely loving the App. Thank you so much for creating it. It save me from extra hours of steaming E in the last Tall Ships race as I could put in an emergency course correction as I woke!!

Is there a way you can include the in-race messages too? perhaps as an option in your drop-down menu? I know they aren't in every race but when they are, it's usually to give useful/good info that folks relying on the App will miss.

2015-08-05 16:17:12 - Buttons switch suggestion.
Buttons switch suggestion.

Following several catastrophically bad commands with the app my suggestion is to switch the positions of the “CC” button with the “*” one - pls see attached PDF file.

Again, thank you Zappe.

2015-08-08 10:58:38 - Mad CC’s changing during button “*” operation.
Mad CC’s changing during button “*” operation.

Sometime ago during a SPRT race I’ve noticed that during the “*” button operation the sailed CC at the time would change to CC+ 180º.
If you didn’t notice that “subtle” change before making a HDG’s correction on the boat (using for that precise maneuver the mentioned “*” button) you would obtain a dreadful maneuver.

Today, during my first Lisboa TR run I’ve experienced the same problem.
Please see the images mounted on the attached PDF file.
From an initial sailed CC = 98.40º, some seconds after activating the “*” button the CC went to 278.40º without touching anything, namely the screen’s phone.

Nuisance.

Hi everyone and sorry for not looking into the forum for some time.

Just found out about the ZigZag race problem. It was caused by "bad/unexpected" data from the server where both the last waypoints had the same ordering number and that caused the app to drop the last one. I will change the app so it can handle simple mistakes like that in the future.

JB: About the switch of the buttons I think it's a good idea so if no one objects I will do that in the next release. About the "graphical tool" not working in the bora bore race. I wasn't in that race so I didn't see it and I have no idea why it happened. I guess I will have to look out for similar problems in the future.

Dear Zappe

The problem I reported for the Beru to Bora-Bora race is the same as the one we are having now on Hawai race. Pls login with the app and try to get wind info with the graphical tool.

Iceland to the Falklands 2026

Welcome to an all-new route, the first of three Round the 'Old World' of Europe, Africa, Australia and Asia. To give each leg of the ROW a bit of length we'll try to hug the coasts as little as possible, so starting in Iceland our first leg of the series, which will also be the final leg of our Quarter 1 Ocean Championships takes us 7200nm to the Falklands, the full length of the Atlantic end to end. To make sure we'll get it done within the month we'll be sailing our Maxi Trimaran.

SSANZ Round North Island Race 2026 - Leg 1

Welcome to Leg One of the Round North Island Series in partnership with SSANZ.

This year, our SOLers will be racing the dynamic Sun Fast 3600 – Jeanneau’s renowned racer-cruiser and a proven flyer downwind. A gentle opener on paper… but coastal tactics and shifting breezes will demand focus from the start!

New Ice Age 2026 - Browerville to Longyearbyen


Our 2026 long-distance ice-boating challenge continues with a second race in Arctic waters, now from Browerville, where we arrived less than a month ago, continuing east, back to Svalbard’s Longyearbyen, leaving Canada’s Ellesmere Island to port and Denmark’s Greenland to starboard. It’s about 2500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you more than a day or three, thus to complete your first (of several) online circumnavigation of the planet of 2026!

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!
