This looks great at first glance, it was relatively easy to get it connected to Expedition and seems to work smoothly. I might write up a quick step by step guide for those not familar with Expedition connections.
I'll try it out onboard in the next few weeks but even using Expedition in simulation mode you can see a lot of the value it brings.
For now we can keep comments about it here but I might add a dedicated section in the forum if people are interested.

Re: New Android apps
Getting started with RaceData from Field Yachting
1. Install the app on your phone/tablet or watch
2. In Expedition add a new network connection (Menu->Instruments-># of Network Connections). Just add one to whatever number is shown.
3. Click on Instruments and on the new network connection shown on the left hand side (Network N)
4. Give it a name 'Phone' or whatever you choose.
5. Set Instruments to 'Expedition'. Connection to UDP. Set Port to 6011.
6. Open the app on the phone and select Settings (bottom right). Scroll down to Network Settings.
7. Note the Device IP shown in Blue, enter that in the instruments settings screen on Expedition. (Address) Or you can use a .255 address to broadcast to all devices on the network
8. In Expedition go to Playback mode and hit Simulate (assuming you are not currently connected to instruments on your boat). Data will now be broadcast on the network connection
9. You should now see data appearing in the app.
Lots more details available on Campbells own website at

Appreciate the feedback.
Hopefully the setup instructions on my web page are sufficient to get most users going.
