3-2-1-Sail

3-2-1-sail, available for iPad and iPhone, is a start timer for sailing races.

It provides a count down/count up timer to manage the start of a sailing race and is primarily designed for race officials  -- although if you're confident of waterproofing your iPhone, there's no reason why you shouldn't use it aboard!
