MYC 'Live Race Tracking' Trial
The Club is about to trial some exciting new technology for boats racing on the Club racetracks that uses nothing more than a mobile phone and a tiny little free app on your phone, so we are looking for people – an owner or skipper or crew member from a boat - to 'put their hands up' and help us with our technology trial.
People can watch you racing live and, you can 'playback' the race later too!
So if:
• You race in D1,2,3 or Etchells on Thursday nights or in the Long Distance Series (or both)
• You have a mobile phone (only iThings or Android and not Windows)
• You have a working email address (will not be used publicly at all - just for login)
• You are prepared to use approximately 1Mb of data per hour of your phone data plan whilst racing and...
• You are prepared to take your phone out on the water with you……
….we need to hear from you or one of your crew members RIGHT AWAY as we are keen to try and get things going for this Thursday!!
The data usage is really tiny – approx. 1Mb per hour – and remember we only want your usage whilst racing. The average Thursday night race is 1.5 hours, so only 1.5Mb of data!
Please fill out the form below if you wish to be a part of the trial.
Hope to have you onboard for this exciting trial, and, many thanks in anticipation.
