The BT-Q1000X with its 66 channel MTK II chipset is the most sensitive GPS logger we've seen.

Couple this with a huge 42 hour battery life between charges and direct track import into TackTracker and you can see why we believe this is the best logger you can buy.

World Champions use TackTracker! PDF Print E-mail

 

Read the Sail World article where Bucky Smith explains how they used TackTracker on the way to their world title win:

Tracey: - Did you study Bertrand's start tactics from the first few races to determine whether you would follow his start and course decisions or make your own 'path' to each mark ?
Bucky Smith: - We went home every night and studied inside out the TackTracker software for each race. We knew where every top boat was tending to start on the line, what they were doing on the first beats. We tried to decipher their on-water tactics and strategy from this. It was a great tool of which
we took full advantage.
