Electronic Monitoring Systems

Hi

Picked this web site up www.prosail.no

Kit looks expensive but in theory, very good.
Would appreciate comments if anyone has experience of the company or the system

Seem to remember this came up on SUG some time ago.
Was it you Martin??

Regards

Oh, yeah!

It was me… I’ve been cooperating with these guys since we did the 49er EC in cooperation in 2002. I think I sent this link prox. last may…

Anyway, it was a “large” test of this system last autumn when using it during the Norwegian Zoom8 championship. I’ve not seen the results yet… There was som minor problems about attaching the senders to these boats, but on bigger boats it should not be any problems. The sender is about 8x3x10 cm + the antenna, if I remember correct.

You’re right about the cost, but they’re supposed to drop.

Think Prosail are thinking about renting them for certain regattas…

regards,

Martin

I am running a regatta where the scoring
penalty is the addition of time to a boats elapsed time rather than a percentage
penalty. Any suggestion on how I might be able to achieve this using sailwave?
