GPS tracking for dinghies

   In the absence of more recent recommendations I used the free version of this some years ago. The free version is still available, but very old. It seems that the paid for version is still being maintained and developed, but I can't comment on how good it is. The free one was clunky but usable. Its a Java app so whatever you run it on needs to be capable of running Java apps.

	OK: no response there - how about I am trying to download resQ to my android phone but Play Store doesn't recognize it. Does anyone know if it still exists?

	I used to use a Velocitek Speed Puck which had a really good replay facility which would generate polar diagrams. Now that people are using mobile phones for tracking, is there a comparable program/app that will do the same job and allow me to see my track/tacking angle and downwind Vmg? If it would work with a Foretrex that would be a bonus. xmas wishes, George Morris (Findhorn, Moray, Weta117, Phantom 903)
