GPS Motion X
Finally worked out how to output the data from this Motion X GPS iApp.

DJ, if you haven't sorted it for yourself, here's how I did it...

It's a pretty convoluted process because the native output format uses Google Maps instead of Google Earth, so to get the satellite image involves a bit of stuffing around, pulling a file into Google Earth program, then copying that image and turning it into a JPG in Photoshop. But the first thing you have to do immediately after finishing your GPS session is save your track inside the iPhone, then go to the library which is the page just before the iPod page. Click on tracks and open the track you just saved, rename it and then simply click on "Share Track Now". The program will take you through a set up the first time to nominate the email to send it to (you can send to up to 5 email addresses). After the first time you set this up, after that it automatically emails to your designated list when you hit Share Track Now. Then go to your mail program and open the email and you will find all the session details and links to the map as well as Google Earth instructions.

This data and imagery below is from a paddle I did this morning around the proposed Port Phillip Cup route. Travelling on a Starboard Blend 11'2". Not much wind but a little bit of current coming from the south, particularly outside the breakwater.
