Hi Byrds,

Yes I have that one, and it does track multiple yacts. But you need the app to watch the yachts. I contacted the developer - he does not plan on putting it onto google maps.

What I want is a app that just throws each boat onto a common google maps website.

"GPS tracker" is perfect - But it only does 1 "yacht"

GPS MotionX supposedly can track multiple iphones (yachts) on facebook, but I cannot get the facebook plug in to work

I've tried quite a few others, usualy they are limited to one target, or you cannot put multiple targets on 1 page.

What I'm aiming to do is have an inexpensive (almost every boat has a tracker - iphone, etc) & simple way to track a fleet of yachts on google maps, so all the punters back on shore can watch.

I'd love to hear of any other apps that may do the trick

Poods

Hey all,

Thanks for the feedback, I'll drop you PMs..

In terms of fleet tracking, it's not on there yet but it definitely could be. What we have at the moment is quite simple. The goal being to get feedback and make it do what you want/need..

Cheers, Duncan

HI Duncan

Check out Tack tracker , if you can make it do that you will have a winner.
Send me your e-mail and I can send you a sample.

Cheers
