Click (or tap for tablets and smartphones) the eye icon beside the name of the yacht. You will see a green tracking line which represents the yacht's route from the start.
Click (or tap for tables and smartphones) the heart icon beside the name of the yacht. Your list of favourites can then be found in the drop down selection which is found at the top of the fleet list.
Yes. The race time for what you can see in the Yacht Tracker window is indicated in the bottom rights hand corner. You can adjust that time in 10 minute increments by moving the slider under the map. To show the last recorded timepoint move the slider to the right hand end.
Choose the category you want (IRC, ORCi, PHS, Corinthian, Veteran, Grand Veteran, Sydney 38) using the Filter (Tracker (Beta)) or the dropdown menu under Fleet (Legacy Tracker), then choose the division you want (or "All" if you want to see all the boats in the category). The map will automatically populate with those boats competing in the category and division you have selected.
Select the race year in the drop down selection at the top of the Yacht Tracker window. The map will open showing the last time point in the race, and you can adjust the presentation from there. If you want to view a boat's entire race, select the relevant race year and then move the slider to the left hand end, which will then show all the boats at the time of the race start. You can then advance the boats in 10 minute increments - see the explanation below.
The rhumb line is the most direct course between the start line in Sydney Harbour and the finish line in Hobart.
Go to the Legend bar under the Fleet and Race Time bars in the Legacy Tracker.
The Legacy Tracker has been retained for those users that find that the Tracker (Beta) does not open or operate properly, particularly if they are using older browsers such as Internet Explorer.
Yes. Under the bar "Race Time" select the day, hour and minute (in 10 minute increments) and press "Show Earlier Time". That will then show the position of each boat as at that time. To revert to current race time for the current year press "Show Latest Time".
The orange coloured sail represents the position of the race record holder ( LDV Comanche ) at the same timepoint in 2017, when she set the current open record.
Choose the boats as favourites, then go to favourites (in the drop down box) and press Toggle Track.
Select the race year in the drop down selection in the "Race Time" bar in the left hand column of the Tracker window. From there the other controls work as usual. If you want to view a boat's entire race, select a race time later than its finishing time in the drop down selection under the race year, and press "Show Earlier Time". You can also use the Favourites functionality to compare the track of multiple boats, as explained above.
Click (or tap for tablets and smartphones) the row of that yacht in the table in Yacht Tracker. A dialogue box will open with boat data and you will see a green tracking line which represents that yacht's route from the start
