Had a quick look at it, thanks, and it seems to be mainly start timing as opposed to recording sail numbers/lap times. Is that a fair assessment?

Absolutely right.  Although I believe it can record finish times which can then be downloaded into a PC and sail numbers attached, but that sounds like a hassle so we don't use it like that.  For finishing we simple write a list of sail numbers against times and use a program on a PC to work out corrected times and finishing positions.
