Which Tablets can I use for A-fleet Sail Scoring? Read More »
A-fleet is not supported on IOS, so it will not run on an iPad or iPhone. While we understand that many of you have iPhones and iPads, we chose to support Android because Android tablets can be purchased inexpensively. A number of clubs have chosen to purchase a tablet as their scoring device. One club has …
One of our users pointed out that WTDRN – (Withdrawn from Regatta) does not work as expected.

You may have noticed that www.afleet.app remembers skippers from week to week. This makes it quicker to set up an event.

The Kerikeri Radio Yacht Squadron is one of my favourite places to sail. Their annual Northland IOM Championships are very popular, and the venue is fabulous. They also have very competitive club racing, with ties becoming commonplace. Last weekend they had a 3-way points tie for first place. The ties were resolved using the Racing Rules …

It’s now: www.afleet.app. If you like the Afleet app, and think it would benefit others, please send the link to your fellow radio sailing enthusiasts; or post it to your club website. Thanks to those who have already helped spread …
Some users were unable to send out the results of their events. Event names with special characters (like the forward slashes used in 5/5/2018) were confusing the App. This is now resolved. Special characters can be used in Event names. Thanks to those who assisted with this issue.
