Mad Cow · Hoover Sailing Club
Apps that have seen a start line.
A start timer for your wrist that sounds the signal on the
mark, and robotic race marks on the way. Mad Cow, 1340, is the
test rig
, and the logs prove it.
Apps
Useful on the water
-
Race Timer
Runs the start sequence on a Wear OS watch. The horn goes on the gun, not near it, and it keeps going with the phone left in the bag.
-
Tender
Post the boat that is a crew short, and the club members free that day hear about it. If nobody fits, it looks wider on its own.
-
Buoyant
Robotic race marks you set, move and watch from wherever you are running the race, instead of dragging anchors around.
