Description

Tack-Tastic provides GPS based instrumentation designed to support the tactical decision making process during yacht racing

WHY
No one's got time to swipe, click or stare at a device in the middle of a sailing regatta, Tack-Tastic is designed to display all the useful data you can get from the GPS at a glance without changing views. Use for Racing, Tuning and Practice

BOAT SPEED
Because of the small inaccuracies in GPS, yacht speeds displayed can be of poor quality and limited use. Tack-Tastic uses an advanced Kalman filter, specifically tuned for yachts, to provide a accurate and smooth speed reading. Two minutes of speed history are displayed in an auto-scaling trend line so that the effect of a change in trim can be seen, with one look.

COURSE
Accurate and smooth course over ground data is also calculated using the Kalman Filter. Tack-Tastic displays this using an intuitive compass display, showing not only your yachts course but also how your course has been changing over time. Lifts and Knocks are easy to see and easy to interpret while sailing.

TACK DETECTION
Tack-Tastic will detect when your boat has tacked and make an estimate of the current wind direction. Tack-Tastic can use this to provide the compass in "wind up" mode to make tactical decisions easier while sailing upwind

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
