Questions

Good to know

Can the Race Timer be used for both 3-minute and 5-minute start sequences?
Yes! The race Timer supports both 3-minute and 5-minute start sequences. For example, the IQFoil class uses a 3-minute sequence, and we've received great feedback from them.
How do I set up the sailing start sequence timer?
Press SYNC and SET together to cycle through the start programs until you see the sequence you need. If you miss the start signal, press SYNC and the timer jumps to the nearest minute. The full step by step guide, with videos, is at windie.pro/pages/how-to-use-windie-sailing-race-timer
Does it show the real time, and can I set it?
Yes. Off the water it shows the time of day like a normal watch, in 12 or 24 hour format, and you set it yourself. The guide at windie.pro/pages/how-to-use-windie-sailing-race-timer shows how.
Is the Windie Sailing Timer waterproof?
Yes, the Windie Timer is fully waterproof up to 50 meters, making it perfect for use in all sailing conditions, ensuring it remains reliable no matter the weather.
What is the best race timer for sailing?
The best sailing race timer is simple to operate with gloves on, loud enough to hear over the wind, and reliable in the water. The Windie Sailing Timer has a preset 5-4-1-0 ISAF countdown, a loud start beep, a quick re-sync button and 50m waterproofing, which is why it is used as a regatta timer and race stopwatch by race officers and champions worldwide.
