Dashboard Help
Navigation on Virtual Regatta, as in real life, depends on many factors (wind speed and direction, variation over time, boat polars, etc.).
To support you on a daily basis, ITYC offers you a dashboard equipped with advanced features, it will allow you to view the weather parameters that your boat is going through or to obtain more in-depth information about your boat.
Thanks to the map tab, visualize at a glance the position of your opponents, compare your routings or evaluate your distance to the odds in a readable way. The graphic tab will allow you to visualize the variations of the main parameters in graphic form offering better visibility. Discover below the many possibilities offered by the ITYC dashboard below.
