Tips
- Please read the general guidance for all users of smart / sports watches.
- Change the data recording interval to “every second”. The default is “smart” and is unsuitable for speed sailing.
- Export the session in the .FIT format in the Garmin Connect app. Do this using the “original” format.
- Try installing the GPSTC data fields by TBWonder to monitor your best 2s, 10s, 5 x 10s, 1852m, alpha 500m and hour.
