About Stacey Szigeti
Ahoy! I'm Stacey — I build free, practical tools for sailors. ⛵
I'm a sailor and engineer at Fastrrr, and I spend my spare time turning race-day questions into simple browser tools that anyone can use — no installs, no accounts, no ads. Everything runs right in your browser and is free for the whole sailing community.
My projects so far:
☁️ Upwind Tactics Simulator — answers the classic pre-start question: which side of the beat pays? Set up your course, wind oscillation, boat polar and up to four current measurements, and it simulates both sides of the beat with current-corrected laylines, a colour-shaded current field, and side-by-side elapsed times. Try it at upwind.sailfastrrr.com (open source: github.com/staceyszigeti/sailing-upwind-simulation-tools)
🌬️ Wind Instrument Calibration Tool — a step-by-step helper for calibrating your masthead unit (MHU offset, TWA and TWD checks on both tacks), so the numbers you race with are numbers you can trust: calibration.fastrrr.com
Why coffee? These tools will always be free. If one of them helped you pick the right side, nail a calibration day, or just made you think differently about the racecourse, a coffee keeps the servers running and fuels the next tool on my list. Every cup genuinely helps — thank you! ☕
Got an idea for a tool the sailing community is missing? Leave a note with your support — I read every message.
