How to use data to help you go faster (whilst avoiding technical overload!)

As an ex-Olympic sailor who represented Croatia in the 470 at Sydney 2000, Ivan Bulaja knows what it takes to go fast. He has been an in-demand Olympic coach ever since, and was looking for a low-hassle data analysis tool to help speed up the performance curve of his sailors.

Unable to find exactly what he was looking for, Ivan developed his own data tool, SailViewer. Although it's not yet well known in the wider market, a few top level medallists are already keen enthusiasts for the user-friendly nature of SailViewer, and the vital feedback it provides.

"Pure and simple insight into your logs. Getting all the needed answers fast..." - Santiago Lange, Olympic Gold Medallist

"I have been using SailViewer from the Olympic dinghies to 90ft Maxi boats. Works great on all occasions..." - Igor Marenic, Olympic Gold Medallist

"SailViewer has been a huge asset to our team. Nowadays it's possible to collect so much data on board but it has always taken many hours to get into the data and extract the answers we are looking for or involved bringing in a specialist to process the data for us. Sailviewer has been a game changer for us - we can upload our data files each day and get answers quickly in a user-friendly platform without having to be super tech-savvy sailors. (I don't even own a laptop)" - John Gimson, Olympic Silver Medallist
