Functionality is good for only race starts (e.g., programmable count down, fly-back restart). It lacks the count-up feature essential for handicap racing (e.g., IRC, PHRF) that most yacht owners are involved in. For the rest of the people racing the boat for the yacht owner, they will use Citizen, Timex, and Casio to tell the yacht owner the timing information he/she is seeking from the ROLEX.
