GPS SPEED unit for Water Skiers

Can be used for any outdoor activity......

BHIP Ltd - super quick summary.... BRILLIANT - super accurate, easy to use, very sensitive GPS data logger - highly recommended for all outdoor activities that require speed monitoring (even works in the back of our company van - no windows!)

The Genie GT-31 (water skiers GPS) is a wonderfully compact, business card sized navigator, carefully designed to embody ergonomic principles. It will comfortably fit in the palm of your hand, mount on the handlebar of bike or motorcycle, and can even be worn on your arm. The stylish unit can be placed on the dashboard in your car, boat, bike, jetski .... horse... you get the idea.. anywhere.

We use the GT31 inside an AquaPac 212 watertight armband to provide highly accurate windsurf speed data records, eligible for download to most recognised GPS Speedsailing websites....

The Navi Genie GT-31 can run for up to 46 hours in power saving mode with the built-in lithium-ion polymer rechargeable battery. It can be recharged while connected to car cigarette lighter, mains power outlet, or your PC/Notebook.

You MAY - if you choose to - add a memory card to the Genie GT-31, however, in our view, this is NOT necessary. It has a 20,000 slot memory - so even at 1 second intervals that is 5.5 hours of actual SAILING data. If you set the min speed to 4 knots, it won't waste time filling memory with STATIONARY data... only when you are moving above 4 knots. SPEED GENIE is a special feature that gives the user INSTANT feedback about the last run, without fiddling with buttons.... KEY LOCK stops accidental key pressing etc etc... Tristan Haskins (director) uses the GT-31 every time he sails.. we hope you choose to buy your unit from people who know what it does, and how to use it.

A state-of-the-art Thumb Stick allows for simple one-handed operation. This rugged navigator is waterproof to IPX7 standards, i.e. immersible in the water for 30 minutes at a depth of 1 meter, and, it floats!

Genie GT-31 is not only developed to handle outdoor activities, but also to handle various professional uses, such as speed, hazard area, zone alerts, altitude, or other alerts defined by the user. To store trip data for longer journeys, there is a SD/MMC slot for extra data storage capacity. And, it can be used as a Real-Time GPS Receiver by connecting to your PC/Notebook. An optional Bluetooth version, named BGT-31 can be used with Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone or PDA phone

What is the Genie GT31 GPS? In our view, it is the BEST VALUE for MONEY GPS data logger / handheld navigator available on the market. It is great for cycling, running, sailing, windsurfing, motocross, horse riding, vintage car racing, handgliding, jetskiing, waterskiing - ANY outdoor sport where you have an interest in speed, distance, navigation and tracking where you have been......

You may also use the Genie GT31 to simply save tracks - where you've been since it was turned on (TRACKS can also be "reversed" to track back to starting point)). Waypoints can be saved "live" to navigate back to at a later stage - or used to construct a ROUTE for navigating at a later date (a ROUTE can be made of up to 125 Waypoints).
