Hi 
I am about to embark on a solo sailing adventure on a Hobie 16, that will set a Guinness World Record (GWR) for "Longest distance sailed by an individual in a two-person catamaran.
I will come ashore every night, so I will be tracking each days sail individually.
GWR requires that at the end of everyday I write down, in a log book, a series of statics from that days sailing.
-Latitude / Longitude
-Start Time / Finish Time
-Moving Time
-Stop Time
-Speed Average / Maximum
-Distance Daily / Total
I have combed over Garmin Support online, searched Youtube videos, even called Garmin support numerous times, but I have not found a simple way to view the data GWR requires to be written into a log book every night, from the track I record. I will be coming ashore on many deserted beaches and some completely deserted islands. Idealy I want to find a way that I can set up the 86i or the Garmin Explorer app, in such a way that everyday after I stop the 86i recording the track for that day, I can simply and easily see all the data GWR requires, either on the 86i or on the Explorer App (iPhone 17 ProMax).
If that is not possible to see all the information necessary for GWR, on the 86i device or paired with my iPhone.
I will have my laptop (Mac) with me on the adventure. So I could connect the 86i to my Mac every night. Though this will be a huge hassle while I am sleeping on the boat's trampoline deck, on deserted beaches or on tiny islands with blowing sand and salt water.
If I can only see the information GWR requires written into the log book everyday using the laptop, I want to have the laptop open for as little time as possible. How can I set up and see all the information on the BaseCamp or I guess the Explorer website as easily and quickly as possible on the laptop? Can I set up additional fields in BaceCamp or Explore to show additional data categories that I know are recorded on the 86i? Ideally, how can I configure the laptop programs in such a way, that I simply have to connect the 86i to the laptop, open the programs, see the data, and stow the laptop as quickly as possible.
I also need to back up all the tracking data into a couple places off the 86i, in case I destroy or loose the 86i. How do I back up the tracking data in more than one place?

Thank you for your assistance :)
