Navigatta is a sailing navigation application designed forregatta racing.

* Input your course using the waypoints Navigatta already knowsabout, or add your own waypoints easily.
* Tell Navigatta which way round the mark to go, so you can tellthe crew at a glance.
* View your Distance and Bearing to the Mark, Course over ground,Velocity Made Good and Estimated Time to Mark on a high contrastscreen.
* Navigatta automatically increments to the next leg when youapproach the current mark.
* View your course on the map by swiping to the map view in theRace Navigator screen.

We are building up a database of racing waypoints. If you findsome that we are missing, please contact us:[email protected]

Luminous Development are a software company focused on userexperience. Here are some nice little touches we think you'llappreciate.

When editing a race:
* Accidentally added the startline as a race mark? Just move themark and drag it to the start line section.
* Not sure which is the port end and which is the starboard end ofthe line? Just add the waypoints and Navigatta will figure it outfor you based on where the next mark is.

When viewing a race:
* Change the Race Navigator between Race List, Mark Information andMap View by swiping the black bar at the bottom.
* Tap a mark in the Map View to see its name and roundingdetails.
* You won't accidentally exit the Race Navigator when the app is inyour pocket. The Race Navigator requires you to press and holdbuttons (long press). Of course, you can change that behaviour inthe settings screen.
* No need to unlock your device in Race Mode. The Race Navigatorsits over the top of your lock screen.
* Alternatively, keep the screen on all the time if the device ismounted in the cockpit. Have a look in settings for theseoptions.
* Navigatta monitors your race even when the screen is off. As youapproach the mark, it will automatically increment to the next markfor you. If you don't pass close enough, you can set the currentleg (see next).
* Long press a mark in the Race Mark List to set that as thecurrent leg.
