The Bluetooth functionality combined with the AutoHoot App allows the operator to set the start sequence, sound the horn and display the countdown time. The App will also record the time of the finishing boats at the time the sound signal is made.

This added functionality allows even greater accuracy by the race committee and further reduces the possibility of error, finishing times can be automatically uploaded to confirm finishing results and if necessary apply PY handicaps.

AutoHoot Bluetooth still has the 37 pre-set starting sequences that include:

  • Rule 26 (5-4-1-Start)
  • Match Racing
  • Team Racing
  • Countdown

Bespoke starting sequences can be created by connecting via Bluetooth to PC.
