GPS tracking with fitness app

How can I track and record my GPS position with the Fitness app when using the paddling or sailing modes? GPS tracking seems only to work for walking and hiking but not for watersports?

The route option (GPS) is available for outdoor walk, hiking, run, open water swim, or cycle workouts

There may be 3rd party apps that will do what you want.


For example a quick search of the app store this came up.
