Regatta Racer - Sailing Timer

Regatta Racer is the lightweight sailing race timer built for competitive dinghy and keelboat racers who need precision timing and navigation tools without the bulk. Race with your phone in your pocket and your watch on your wrist—synchronized in real time, race after race. Why Regatta Racer? Most sailing apps are built for cruising. This one's built for racing. Whether you're chasing the start line in a 49er, dialing in your Laser, or flying a keelboat, every second counts. Regatta Racer gives you the tools to execute perfect starts and nail your race strategy. Core Features ▸ Countdown Timer – Start with presets (1-10 minutes), custom timing, or pursuit race start selection. Audio and vibration alerts keep you locked on the race, not the screen. ▸ Real-Time GPS & Compass – Speed, heading, location accuracy, and bearing updates for continuous navigation ▸ Start Line Optimization (Premium) – Time-to-Line (TTL) and Distance-to-Line (DTL) calculations to dial in your approach and hit the line at the horn with zero margin for error ▸ Speed Display in your choice of units (knots, km/h, mph, m/s, ft/s) – large, readable in any light condition ▸ Compass with heading indicator and compass rose for visual navigation feedback ▸ Screen Lock – Prevents accidental touches when the boat's bouncing and your hands are full ▸ Phone + Watch Sync – Control your timer from either device; data stays synchronized without cloud dependency Watch App: The Advantage Your wrist is always faster than your pocket. Start your countdown from the watch, check speed and heading without reaching, keep one hand on the tiller. The watch app runs independently or synced with your phone—you decide. Perfect for small boat sailing where every distraction costs boat lengths. Customization That Matters ▸ Speed and distance units to match your local racing standards ▸ Display themes: High Contrast (aqua on black—the racing default), Light Mode, Night Mode, or System ▸ Audio and vibration alerts (toggle both on or off) ▸ Countdown alert lengths: choose 5, 10, or 15-second warnings ▸ Custom timing for any race format The Pricing Model Free Preview: Full access to all features for your first 5 races.
