Some boats at the Glabal Challenge will have a gps, and I think it would be nice to gather the tracks and publish them eventually on internet.
You can see what happened during a race, vmg can be calculated, best 500 meters etcetera.
The program used is GPSar, to be found at
http://gpsactionreplay.free.fr/We have seen some pretty nice examples over here,

So if someone wants to see his own tracks, please bring your gps unit and pc-interface cable. After the races we can downlad the track on a PC We do have already cables for a Garmin12, Garmin Geko and Garmin Foretrex.The best would be if we could put it the same day on the internet , but i don't think we can do this. But sure it will be done after the Global Challenge.
