In amongst the hundreds of UK and international entries processed each year by the hard-working team at the Island sailing Club (ISC), the Isle of Wight always manages to produce a sizable and interesting turnout.
This year is no exception with plenty of familiar local faces and boats signed up for the start line of the J.P. Morgan Asset Management Round the Island Race on Saturday 19th June.
For the armchair spectators amongst you, don’t forget that many of the more familiar boats might well be available for you to track online right here for the very first time as they progress around the Island.
If you have already entered the race, the ISC will be in touch with you about downloading the tracking software and registering your mobile etc but for some more general details about how this very exciting Race Tracking is going to work and how you can follow the race progress online using the Race Viewer, visit the Race website www.roundtheisland.org.uk
