25th Atlantic Rally on Google Maps

25th Atlantic Rally for Cruisers

The 25th Atlantic Rally for Cruisers, a race across the Atlantic from Gran Canaria to Saint Lucia, is currently underway. Every boat in the 25th ARC fleet is fitted with a Yellowbrick Iridium tracker and you can view all the participants on this Google Map.

The position of each craft is updated on the map every 6 hours, at 0000, 0600, 1200 and 1800 UTC. Using the map it is also possible to view the current wind direction along the route.

You can read more about Yellowbrick trackers and the rally here.
