On Water Sign-On Sign-Off – OTB
Background
OnWater is a web based extension of TES: the ‘TopYacht Entry System’. Being web based, it can be used on any device (including hand held ones) that supports a web browser. This methodology is centred around using computers on shore.
It allows sailors to sign on/sign off very quickly using a simple Web based interface. It can be accessed by a computer at the club or via the sailor’s smart phone/tablet.
When used with the Keel Boat extension, it can be used to also capture the number of POB.
At a recent major OTB regatta, the sailors averaged 4 seconds each to sign on/off.
Event Prerequisites
Event Entry
- You have used TES as the event entry platform. Each competitor must be in the TES database for that event. Boats directly added to the TopYacht database will not be shown for sign-on / sign off. Boats in TopYacht that are retrospectively added to TES, must have the boat-id number (generated in side TES) added to TopYacht via Step 6.
