What sort of events do we support?
While YB sells devices to adventurers around the globe, most of our customers use our products on a rent-and-return basis. Here are some of the most common events and expeditions we support.
Yacht Race Tracking
We provide tracking for all of the big events such as The Fastnet, Sydney Hobart and The Arc, and smaller events with a few boats taking part.
Adventure Racing
We track about 200 races per year, including the legendary GODZone and the pictured Trek Rose Trip.
Car / Vehicle Racing
If your race stages take competitors outside of cellular coverage, YB Tracking is the perfect choice.
Expeditions & Treks
From school pupils taking part in Duke of Edinburgh expeditions to fundraisers and adventure travel, we have global coverage.
