🧺 Youth event: kept private automatically, and please use a sail number, not a name — so a child’s live location isn’t public.

One tap starts recording your GPS. Tap again at the finish and it uploads to the
fleet replay — corrected on handicap. Keep this screen on — we hold it awake for you
(screen-on in a pocket is fine; just don’t lock it or switch to another app). Sign in once — then one tap records & uploads, nothing to install.
📱 Honest heads-up: a phone is the easy way in and a great gap-filler, but phones fight hard to kill background apps — lock the screen or switch away and tracking can pause. More reliable for the whole race: a GPS watch or logger (Garmin and the like) records the lot on its own — just upload the GPX afterwards. And for live capture, an AIS transponder or a club receiver.
