Is your class or event looking to stand out from the crowd next year?

If so, please get in touch with Kenny Rumball ([email protected]) and the team from MarineServices.ie to book Sailmon tracking and video analytics for your event in 2024.

The 1720 class adopted the live tracking system for their National Championships this year in Waterford Harbour Sailing Club. Sailmon and Marine Services provided the entire system, including the all-important MAX min trackers, drone for video analytics and online and on-site support from the Netherlands and here to be able to produce in the club after sailing each day video highlights integrated with the data from the trackers.

The Sailmon Max

Dave Love, president of the 1720 class, commented after the event; 'The 1720 Sportsboat Class were delighted with Sailmon at our 2023 Nationals. There was superb viewing in the clubhouse after sailing, and created real focal point for all crew to chat about the day's racing. It also helped friends, family, and the wider 1720 fleet keep involved in the racing. We used a lot of the data on the speeds of the relative boats as prizes within the fleet, which made for fun sailing. We'll be using this service again in 2024.'

MarineServices.ie and Sailmon, can provide different packages and can tailor this to the requirements of each class.

Kenny Rumball gives his idea of how it can work for each class, ‘There is already a lot of work for organisers of sailing events and also classes to consider when running and regional or national event. Allow us to take the work out of it for you and let us do the job of enhancing your sailing event with top-class tracking. All we need is booking 6 months in advance with an anticipated number of boats. All we need after that is an entry list…. We can provide all the other ancillaries, drones, support RIBs and extra features as required.’

Join the revolution and put your class on par with some of the major international classes and names out there, including Melges 32s, SB20s, RS21s, British Sailing Team, J70, Cowes Week, Cape 31s, Nacra 17, the list goes on and on!

With some commitment and pre-planning we can be fully prepared and set up for and epic 2024 of live tracking and integrated video analytics for all sailing in Ireland!

Sailmon’s ‘Sail Better’ series of webinars continues following America’s Cup winner Kyle Langford discussing the importance of setting goals with Dylan Fletcher hosting an hour-long how-to on preparing yourself for a dinghy race.

The multi-medal-winning sailor will give you all his insights on how to have one foot on the podium before the regatta even begins.

During the interactive Zoom session next Thursday afternoon 9 December at 2pm GMT, Dylan will emphasise the importance of focusing on the right things long before the gun.

The British Olympic gold medal winner at Tokyo 2020 will share his thoughts about boat preparation, weather conditions, strategy, tactics and more. A good performance during the race is essential, but a decent plan of action is more than important as well.

Moreover, Dylan will share how Sailmon’s MAX and the Sailmon app helped him win gold in the men’s 49er class at the Tokyo Olympics. Which data was the most useful and how did he analyse this data during the road to victory? Get an answer to these and all your other questions — register for the free Zoom webinar HERE.

Sail higher, faster and hit the right end of the line

Traditionally dinghy and sport boat sailing has all been about feel. MAX makes guesswork a thing of the past. It features a built-in, fast GPS and advanced 9-axis compass which generates the most accurate sailing data. Keep an eye on data such as heading, speed, heel and pitch, wind, and course over ground to sail higher and faster. In addition, MAX contains a ping function, countdown timer, distance to line, and time to start functionality.

MAX makes guesswork a thing of the past

By connecting the Bluetooth, solar-powered, wind sensor, you can receive instant and accurate apparent and true wind readings.

All data is presented on a clear transflective LCD display with anti-reflective front glass for maximum viewability. Powered by a lithium-polymer battery for all day use with waterproof charging.

Relive your trip with the Sailmon app

In addition to the technological and practical solution, MAX is the first sailing instrument with an accompanying app. The Sailmon app can be used to provide insight into, save or review data from training or competitions. The results of every trip are visualised in the app on a clear timeline and map, which you can also compare with your training partners and competitors. All functionalities of the Sailmon app helps you to improve your sailing.
