Following the Paris Launch of the 2009 iShares circuit Race-Trax is delighted to announce the official partnership with OC Group the organisers of the iShares Extreme 40 Cup, to provide tracking throughout this years events. 

The Race-Trax technology is developed from systems currently in military use and will provide each boat’s position in the fleet, updated second by second to within ½ metre accuracy ensuring that both spectators and officials are kept up to date with the action on the water.

Race-Trax trackers will be fitted to the 10 Extreme 40s, as well as the race marks that layout the course and the cutting edge technology will be pushed literally to every extreme. Race-Trax will also provide its Replay function to the top class skippers allowing them to review where those critical decisions were made.

Mike Anderson-Brown Commercial Director of Race-Trax commented,

“It is always an exciting time when a new relationship is formed and our time with the iShares Cup in Paris has given us an insight into these truly Extreme 40’s, they will not only provide fantastic tracking but also the extreme conditions that the Race-Trax technology truly excels in.  I am positive they are exciting times ahead…”
