I have posted all of the racing data I have for the 2009 Nationals... more or less you can see 3 of the Musto Skiff's and one Swift Solo.  All the colors are roughly the same as the sailor Spinnakers and they stay consistent though all of the race files.  I have tested the site on all of the major browsers on Mac and PC and it seems to works well, e-mail me if you are having any trouble.  Please be patient as the data downloads and gets parsed.  It can take up to a minute even on a very fast machine, don't worry it's working.  Most of the races have all 4 boats.  If you don't see a boat in a race it's usually because the batteries died or their Velocitek was full.  Pieter is the only boat that had files for Day 3.

If you are not familiar with the GPS Action Replay software I recommend clicking the "Waypoints" check box, and "Foot Prints" radial button.  Then you can tinker with the "Speed" settings.  If you click and the zoom gets messed up just pick a track and choose "Scale".  For the starts you can zoom in by clicking on the map a couple times or using the Zoom Slider.  Then pick the skiff you want to follow, click "Center" and choose the "Auto Center" check box.  Anyway... have fun.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Sincerely,

That's pretty slick. Too bad I left my Tactic in the truck. I'll have to
work on a mounting for it over the winter and use it more often.
