About

I wanted something relatively simple to use and read while sailing, that would also send the completed activity to Garmin Connect as a "Sailing" activity. This is a first release, so may contain bugs. Please let me know if there are problems you encounter and I will try to fix them! ***IMPORTANT***: to start the app timer, you MUST press the ACTION button on your watch (upper right button on the Venu 2). A second button press on the ACTION button will stop and save the activity. The screen will not be responsive during activity tracking. The BACK button will also NOT be responsive during activity tracking. INFORMATION DISPLAYED: - battery percentage - local pressure in millibars (mb) - compass (where the "12 o'clock marker of the watch is pointing) - GPS heading (where your sailboat is heading) - GPS accuracy signal (green good) --- Compass and GPS will show the same heading until the sailboat is moving quickly enough to distinguish between both - SPEED in knots - heartrate - distance in nautical miles (nm) - time elapsed - local time I built this for myself, and make it available for others to enjoy if they find it useful.
