Sailing race timing, from countdown to finish.
For the club volunteer keeping an eye on the line, the fleet and the clock. SailScore brings the start sequence and finish recording together on iPhone and Android.
Get SailScorePrepare the fleet before the countdown
Set up the race entries with each boat's sail number, class and handicap rating. When boats approach the line, you can identify the right entry instead of writing a time and trying to match it to a sailor later.
Check the entries and ratings against your club's race information before the start. The app handles the timing and calculations, while the race officer remains responsible for running the race.
Follow the five-minute start sequence
A clear countdown, sound cues and animated flag guidance help you follow the sequence from the warning signal to the start. The display shows when to raise and lower the class flag and Blue Peter.
Keep the phone where you can see and hear it while carrying out your club's starting procedure. The guidance supports the person making the signals.
Record the finish while watching the line
Tap each boat as it finishes. SailScore records its finish and keeps the remaining boats visible, so you can concentrate on the next arrival. If you tap the wrong entry, you can undo the mistake.
Timing and finish recording continue without reception. Once the race is complete, those recorded times feed into corrected results and race points without another round of data entry.

Does race timing need mobile reception?
You can keep timing and recording finishes without reception. Sharing results with the club needs a connection.
Can I correct an accidental finish tap?
Yes. Finish recording includes undo. You can also edit results in a browser when reviewing the race.
What happens after I finish timing?
SailScore uses the recorded times to calculate handicap-adjusted results and race points. Those results can contribute to the series standings and be shared with the club.
Get ready for your next club race.
SailScore is available for iPhone and Android.
