Other Vessel Tracking works in conjunction with the Position Reporting system, enabling the navigator or racer to monitor the positions of other vessels traveling in company or under race conditions. It is accessed by clicking on the Tools menu and selecting Other Vessel Tracking.

DataTrak Enhancements

The DataTrak module is a time-based, graphical recording system included with RayTech Sail Racer and RayTech Fishing Pro Suites. DataTrak script charts can be resized to fixed time intervals for quick data capture. This is invaluable to the navigator in capturing data for target and polar calculations or trying to ascertain minute changes in any recorded variable overtime.

Navigator 4.1 now allows for the display of DataTrak wand times. When capturing data from the DataTrak, vertical frames can be inserted in the chart delineating start and end points for the data capture. These lines, called wands, represent a particular segment of time on the graph. The time interval is reported at the top of the graph, in the blue status bar.

Animation Enhancements

When displaying weather layers on the chart you can animate the information to view weather changes over time. To animate this data, display weather layers information on the chart and select the Animation Toolbar from the View menu. Then choose from the following items on the Animation Toolbar. Features marked with an asterisk (*) are new to V4.1.
