I thought i would put up some GPS stuff on here for guys who are training by them self's to have some thing to go off. If you dont have a GPS watch and train by your self you should get one, they are a great way of seeing what is going on!! I know i was looking around for times and speed of people and could not find anything really so this might start some thing. Water was flat with tide going one way no wind and on a 14ft Javelin

Did someone mention that an iPhone App does a similar thing ???
Great suggestion Laurie !
Yes there is a iPhone app just make sure you have your battery fully charged before you start. A mate has used it and I'm sure he said it went ok just chewed up the battery.
Good idea laurie let's see where it goes.
Jacko
Not sure what functions Garmin offers but the iPhone app that I use is called Motion X GPS.
Will be getting another GPS soon after a certain extreme bay crossing claimed the last one

hey Jacko can the distances on that Garmin site be shown in mtrs and km instead of ft/ mi or am I missing something.
What are the big spikes Jacko, were you going real hard or is that something else.
The big spikes are turns, so they are slow points. Yes it can be changed to ft or miles but I for got how, I will look in to it tomorrow.
Just looked at it on my iPhone and it's in miles. Mmm I will see if I can change it tomorrow.
I have not used my GPS whilst paddling my SUP yet but you may have inspired me it would be good to measure times over a track
Here is the track from when I sailed it though
Tuesday afternoon?? Any wonder you didnt go up to Wendts, lose a fin on a dead cow or tree in that weather......
cool , i might buy that camera i posted , it has built in gps.Now my board is better im more keen to get into some downwinders and flat water stuff.I was just thinking today a flat water paddle on hinze dam might be fun.
In the top right hand side of the chart page under the sign in command there is an option to view in metric or statute. If you select metric it will change it all to metres and kilometres
