SailDash

Sail Dash is a two-device coaching dashboard for dinghy training.

ON THE BOAT The sailor's phone becomes an instrument panel — big, monospaced readouts of speed, heading, distance to the top mark, bearing, and VMG. Numbers are sized for arm's-length legibility and the screen stays bright and awake on the water.

ON THE RIB The coach sees every sailor in the session on one screen: live speeds, headings, and tile colours that match each sailor's sail number. One tap sets the top mark at the coach's current position. Another triggers a 5/3/1-minute start sequence with a proper flag-coloured countdown banner and audible beeps on every device in the session.

COACH BROADCASTS Canned messages — STARTING SOON, REGROUP AT RIB, FOLLOW ME — hit every sailor's device with a full-screen banner and audio ping. Quick-tag notes (TACK, GYBE, POOR ANGLE, GOOD VMG, WIND SHIFT, CAPSIZE) log silently to the session timeline for review.

SESSION REVIEW After the session, map every sailor's track, peak speeds, detected tacks and gybes, annotations, and coach notes. Speed chart layers all sailors together. Past sessions stay available for later review.

BUILT FOR ON-WATER USE for Sailors Works offline — sessions upload when the phone reconnects. Audio cuts through the silent switch so timer beeps are never missed. Dark and light instrument themes.

Free to use. No ads. Built by a sailing parent for his son's training.
