Hello,
✓ SailFreeGPS displays current location, course (COG), speed (SOG), max speed, Trip distance, speed average and magnetic compass.
✓ SailFreeGPS displays COG and SOG history (6h) to help you to see trim effect on your sails.
✓ SailFreeGPS filters GPS information for more accuracy (average of an amount of last measures you can set).
✓ SailFreeGPS can share your position, COG, SOG to your friends.
✓ SailFreeGPS helps you during Man OverBoard maneuver (MOB). It stores the location and lead you to it.
✓ SailFreeGPS displays your track on google map (48h).
✓ SailFreeGPS helps you during Regatta with its countdown timer and its departure line
✓ You can store up to 8 waypoints and activate a GOTO function with ETA (Estimated Time to Arrival computation)
✓ You can save/load track to/from GPX/KML file
✓ You can calculate distance and heading
✓ You can use it on every boat, motor or sail boat.
✓ You can now activate an anchor alarm or a course alarm.
I am an amateur sailor who has decided to create this app after a Transatlantic cruise.
I add periodically functionalities to this app when I have some spare time.
Do not forget to calibrate your compass for better results.
