Head of the Charles — Best Line Leaderboard

Upload your race .fit file. We measure how closely you held the ideal racing line. Fewest extra metres wins.

A row3r.com project.

Your boat GPS records the line you rowed. The best line is the shortest legal path through the bridges — the theoretical minimum. % over best line is how much farther you rowed than that minimum.
No need to trim your file — automatic gate detection finds the race start and finish, so upload your whole activity (warm-up, race and paddle home).

Ranked by how close to the best line — lower % is better. 🥇 🥈 🥉 mark first, second and third.
