Starting and Stopping Tracking Sessions

Tracking sessions can be started and stopped manually or scheduled in advance. These controls are available from the session dashboard.

Boats will appear live on the map once the session is active and will stop being visible once it ends.

Manual Control

To start or stop a session manually, use the:

• Start tracking button to begin

• Finish tracking button to stop

Scheduling a Session

You can also schedule session start and stop times:

• Schedule Start

  • Set the Race starting time: the system will automatically begin tracking 15 minutes before this time.

  • Alternatively, use Schedule start to define an exact Auto start tracking at time.

• Schedule Stop

  • Set the Lasting maximum attribute to define when the session should automatically stop.

What Happens When a Session Stops?

Once a tracking session has ended:

• The replay becomes available for public or internal review

• Race insights and data become accessible

NOTE: You cannot restart a session once it has been stopped. If tracking was ended prematurely, a new session must be created.

Session Limitations

Keep the following in mind before starting a session:

• You must be within your plan’s monthly limit of active sessions. If you’ve reached the limit, you’ll need to wait for the next billing cycle or upgrade your plan.

• You cannot have overlapping sessions that share the same fleet. Only one tracking session can be active at a time for a specific group of boats.
