Timing and results

The Race-Trax system generates an instant list of competing boats, mark rounding and finish times and LIVE! positions, helping to reduce the on-board timekeepers´ and Results Office personnel workload.  This data can be broadcast to the shore for the LIVE! display of provisional results in the race or press office or on screens around the venue.

1. The Race Data pop-up is displaying `Overview´ data.
2. The Start Line, OCS, 1st Mark, Finish and Competitor tabs, like this Overview tab, have user input enabled. Effectively, this means that whilst all text data is auto generated by Race-Trax all data may be cut, copied, pasted, amended and / or added to before it is saved and / or transmitted back to the shore-side Event Management, Media and Broadcast Teams.
