Tracking obsession
connorboops
Absolutely love the tracking feature in this app. So fun to know where the boats are and the distance between the leader and the rest of the field.
Needs work

The switch from the way the website and Apps were managed in 2014-15 is not an improvement. Go back and use the old platform and the analyze what you are trying to do and why it would improve the function, service and user experience. Now u have spotty coverage, poor live feeds, and a game app that doesn’t know if it shld be a money making tool or an fun devise that generates stickiness. It’s badly designed with weird algorithms that makes arbitrary decisions that make no sense to sailors. Start over and bring back the old team for the next leg.
Best way to stay up to date

The ‘17-‘18 Volvo Ocean race is on and this app is essential for keeping up with all the action.
Tiny Video Archive
Belloq
A small video archive means that if you don’t keep up with the race in real time, watching on demand will mean missing large sections of the race. Enough to quit and wait for the next one.
Great mobile portal for quick info

Great layout and set up for quick indulgence from a mobile platform.
Not bad
whats your COG?
Pretty good app, the things I like to look at are: - tracker - Results table (for more data than tracker) - some of the articles Not perfect, there are also plenty of what you could rudely call "BS marketing publicity" articles not aimed at anybody who knows anything about sailing.
Great app to follow race

Has had it’s up and downs but is working great at the moment. Love the race app experience.
