Courses allow you to mark the start & finish lines of your test pieces and measure the time spent on the course (as opposed to the total duration of a workout). This allows you to row and rank marked courses. To create a course, you use Google Earth to mark the start and finish lines using polygons. The process is identical to creating custom courses for the CrewNerd app.
CrewNerd has published a nice video tutorial of the process. Click here to see the video. The part we're interested in starts at 2:05.
In addition to start and finish areas, on rowsandall.com you can add additional polygons to mark areas that you must pass (in that order). This allows for courses with turns around buoys, respecting buoy lines, or respecting traffic patterns on rivers and lakes.
You are allowed to have multiple courses in one KML file. Your CrewNerd "courses.kml" file works out of the box
The site doesn't test for duplicate courses.
