- Great layout and set up for quick indulgence from a mobile platform.
- Awesome to be able to track and watch videos of the race.

I have an iPhone 5S. This ap locks up when I select video option and puts me in an endless loop of hitting "back to home" then the only way to recover is to delete TheOceanRace off my phone and reload it from TheOceanRace Store. Sometimes it does this when selecting other menu options as well. I've had to do this at least twice a day since the race started

A small video archive means that if you don’t keep up with the race in real time, watching on demand will mean missing large sections of the race. Enough to quit and wait for the next one.

New coverage for 17-18 VOR is disappointing in some areas. Need more OBR reports and videos and less slow-moving, repetitive dialogue from someone who says he doesn't know what he's talking about. He asks an expert to explain, but the whole report is very slow-moving.
Also, it is difficult to find out when live coverage will start. I understand the times of arrival at port are not predictable, but it would be nice to get some idea further in advance so that we know when to start looking for the live broadcast.
The website keeps saying a report will come at 1300 UCT, but then nothing shows up, and it is very dated when it does finally get posted.

Looks like a nice update so far. However, the iPad implementation seems to have a fixed vertical orientation. This is not a good thing for me. I hope they can work out a way to fix it.

Love the info, would love to have more. Still a few bugs to work out on iPads.

I love following the preparations and then the race using TheOceanRace . I check it often to see what is going on to get ready for the start

Pretty good app, the things I like to look at are:
- tracker
- Results table (for more data than tracker)
- some of the articles
Not perfect, there are also plenty of what you could rudely call "BS marketing publicity" articles not aimed at anybody who knows anything about sailing.

If You, Being-here:
You’d voice Your muffled roar,
Batter shores -
myriad shapeless mounds:
Course, clean sand swept from Ocean’s floor.
Yet Great White Gulls
Go flying far and free
Cross this restless, timeless, lonely sea.
