Nov 10All At Sea

• By Dan Griffey in News,

We are now officially all at sea. Well, our clients are, as the team at OC Vision are firmly on dry land, fresh off the ferry from the start of the 2008 Vendée Globe.

With our Volvo Ocean Race clients (Team Russia, Green Dragon, PUMA Ocean Racing) tied up in Cape Town awaiting their restart to Kochi, it is the turn of the solo-ists to take to the seas.

30 IMOCA 60’s left the French port of Les Sables D’Olone yesterday facing 26,000 miles of ocean, solo, without assistance.

British teams have had good results in the last events (Ellen MacArthur 2nd in 2001, Mike Golding 3rd in 2005) and our client campaigns are among the favourites for this, the most closely contested, edition.

OC Vision are providing the full suite of digital services to Mike Golding (www.mikegolding.com) and BT Seb Josse (www.btsebjosse.com). Both sites feature the usual array of news, results, analysis and tracking; Powered by our own Content Server CMS with managed hosting from Virtual Internet, we’ll be following the teams closely, day and night, each and every position report.

Check out the sites, subscribe to the RSS, or sit back and watch the videos arrive via satellite, as the story of this the most classic of adventure races, unfolds over the winter.
