information about pairing with that device.

Sailing
Tack Assist
While cruising or racing into the wind, the tack assist feature can
help you determine if your boat is being lifted or headed. When
you calibrate tack assist, the device captures your boat's port
and starboard course over ground (COG) measurements,
and uses the COG data to calculate the mean true wind
direction and the boat's tack angle .
The device uses this data to determine whether your boat is
being lifted or headed due wind shifts.
By default, the device tack assist is set to automatic. Each time
you calibrate the port or starboard COG, the device recalibrates
the opposite side and true wind direction. You can change the
tack assist settings to enter a fixed tack angle or true wind
direction.
NOTE: The device uses GPS-based course over ground to
determine your course in the tack assist feature, and does not
account for other factors that can affect your boat's direction,
such as currents and tides.

An arrow appears and indicates if your boat is being lifted or
headed.

Tips for Getting the Best Lift Estimate
To get the best lift estimate when using the tack assist feature,
you can try these tips. See Entering a Fixed Tack Angle or True
Wind Direction, page 2 and Calibrating the Tack Assist, page 2
for more information.
• Enter a fixed tack angle, and calibrate the port side.
• Enter a fixed tack angle, and calibrate the starboard side.
• Use the Auto tack angle setting, and calibrate both the port
and starboard side.
Sail Racing
You can use the device to increase the likelihood that your boat
will cross the start line of a race exactly when the race begins.
When you synchronize the regatta timer in the sail racing app
with the official race countdown timer, you are alerted at one-
minute intervals as the race start approaches. When you set the
starting line, the device uses GPS data to indicate whether your
boat will cross the start line before, after, or at the correct time to
start the race.

From the watch face, select START > Sail Race.

Wait while the device locates satellites.
3
