This is a great idea. I was going to suggest using GPS Replay earlier but I thought it was all being worked out with another program. With GPS replay you don't have to have the program installed on your computer to watch the race, you only need it to make the internet files that will be uploaded to a site for others to view. It is a Java script(program?) that will run right from the internet, just click and it will play. JPG's of the sailing area can be added so that the viewer can see the shore and the buildings on it as well as the ocean of course. I have GPS Replay already installed on my computer and have viewed a few small races on it. Very Nice!

I think I will start a web site where anybody can post their Cat racing GPS Replay files. Geert, let me know if you need some web space and I set up a simple (meaning quick, to be adorned later) web site. Sounds like an idea, a single place to view replays of any cat race, even simple two boat races between friends. Let me know and I will get to work.

All you need now is for Garmin to sponser the races by supplying all the handheld GPS's (most companies love almost free advertisement) <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Maybe next time.

Just to let you know, I am in no way associated with GPS Replay or Garmin (after reading this post I can see that it sounds like a commercial), I just think GPS Replay is cool, it can also be used as a powerful learning tool for all cat sailors.
