Easiest way to get started with RaceQs

Download the app for iPhone, Android or Garmin Watch
Sign up, sign in…
Create a boat profile
Start tracking your first event
Use scheduled start if you stow your phone
Use auto shut down if you are forgetful, in my case it is not going to record more as 6 hours, or when I get in a car that drives more than 30kn as I know my boat will never go that fast.
When racing is finished, go to Tracks, assign a boat if you did not yet, and press upload. You can also check the replay here.
To see your log online: Go to RaceQs website.
1. Top right side log in.
2. Go to “MY JOURNAL”
3. You can now see the course. Add your boat, and yourself as crew.
