| GPS technology for many of us has brought a whole new dimension to windsurfing for a host of different reasons! The key advantages of using a GPS device are as follows: |
 |
 |
Tune equipment and instantly evaluate performance. |
|
 |
|
Keep a record of the speeds & distances achieved and analyse such with software applications thereafter. |
|
|
|
Create charts displaying sailing tracks on location images using readily accessible mapping technology (examples). |
|
|
|
Compete in organised speed events that are run without reliance on expensive & limiting time keeping equipment. |
|
|
|
Participate in worldwide speed sailing through the amazing GPS-Speedsurfing website (see here). |
|
|
|
Easily build an archive of personal sailing data. |
|
|
 |
|
| If you have access to a computer then all of this is possible with the low cost yet highly accurate GT-31 GPS! It is very easy to get set-up and use (see our support section). |
|
| If you don't have a computer (how are you reading this?) then you'll find there is still much to be gained by using the GPS as a standalone unit for simply monitoring speed & distance. |
