Betclic

Betclic is a straightforward tool for club keelboat crews to recognize race signals in the cockpit. The app displays the two hoists on a drawn committee boat, allowing you to tap the upper or lower hoist and select the flag shape, mark, and colour that you see. Once selected, the app shows the matching flag image and provides the signal’s meaning, the number of horn sounds it requires, and the immediate action to take. You can also track horn sounds by tapping the plus icon for each sound heard. The app then verifies that the number of sounds matches the rules for the selected signal. A signal can start the timing clock automatically, with P, I, U, Z or the black flag starting a four‑minute count, and your class flag starting a five‑minute count. The rule 26 rail shows which flag should be raised or lowered at each minute, and the screen stays awake during the countdown. All 26 International Code of Signals letter flags, the numeral pennants, and the answering pennant are included. The app shows the correct flag plate and its single‑letter meaning, placing similar flags side by side to help you distinguish them. You can also add flags specific to your local sailing instructions, which appear alongside the built‑in flags. The app lets you log each signal, the time it was observed, and the sounds heard. You can share a timed sheet of hoists, sounds, and the rule each one triggers with the race officer or protest committee. The app is designed for easy use on the water, with a clear, offline interface. All content is included in the app and works completely offline. With Betclic, your favorites, notes, progress, and personal data are stored only on your device, with no registration, accounts, or cloud synchronization required.
