Like watching the NBA on mute—from the other side of the gym.
The athletes are working. Tactics are unfolding. Positions are changing. But from shore, the boats are distant, the voices are gone, and almost none of the story reaches the spectator.
RegattaLink connects every boat, mark, official and spectator through live GPS tracking, race communications and onboard media—using the phones already in their hands.
The athletes are working. Tactics are unfolding. Positions are changing. But from shore, the boats are distant, the voices are gone, and almost none of the story reaches the spectator.
Think of it as the consumer version of the connected race technology associated with Olympic-class and professional sailing: live positioning, race information, onboard media and better storytelling—made accessible to ordinary clubs.
Most regatta technology shows spectators dots on a map. RegattaLink adds the missing layer: the voices, views, decisions and moments that make a race worth following.
GPS positions, course geometry, marks, trails, speed and leaderboard in one race-day view.
Boat-to-committee voice, priority announcements and a low-bandwidth audio mode.
Selected live cameras, boat switching and GPS-synchronized race replays.
Starting sequences, course management, notices, scoring and official roles.
One public link. No spectator download. Families follow from anywhere.
Tracks, audio and video stay aligned on a shareable event timeline.
Review speed, maneuvers, starts, mark roundings and tactical decisions.
A future control layer for live buoy position, drift detection and remote course changes.
One operational picture for the race committee, sailors and shore team. Designed for local fleets and youth regattas—not just televised professional circuits.

SailGP proved onboard media can make sailing gripping. RegattaLink brings that sense of presence to ordinary clubs—without a television production crew or specialized tracker on every boat.
SailGP is the fame and spectacle benchmark. KWINDOO is the established smartphone tracking and club-event benchmark. RegattaLink’s opening is combining club accessibility with live participant media and communications.

World-famous, polished and spectacular—but purpose-built for its own professional racing league.
An established smartphone platform for GPS tracking, live event presentation and performance analytics.
Planned to unite tracking, operations, live voices and onboard views for everyday regattas.

Start with the device everyone already owns. Build toward a connected racecourse where boats, officials and marks report their position and status in real time.
Event rooms, live GPS, committee voice, fleet announcements and spectator maps.
Selected onboard video, audio-first fallback, race timeline and shareable highlights.
Starts, courses, mark positions, rounding detection, finishes and results.
Autonomous buoy telemetry, drift alerts, geofencing and supervised repositioning.
Sailors and spectators create the network, so they never pay admission. Clubs pay for the tools that operate, record, brand and enhance their events.
Prove it on the water.
Launch pricing for the clubs that help shape RegattaLink.
For a championship weekend or occasional event.
Never charge admission to the network. Charge for operating, managing, branding, recording and enhancing the event.
Race-day technology must respect weak signal, youth privacy and maritime safety. These principles belong in the product—not buried in terms nobody reads.
Guardian-managed youth accounts, restricted real-time identity, event consent and configurable public location delay.
Adaptive video, audio-first fallback and resilient GPS uploads when cellular coverage becomes unreliable.
RegattaLink complements—not replaces—marine VHF, required safety gear, visual signals or emergency services.
Join the founding clubs testing a more visible, connected and compelling future for small-regatta sailing.
