More Than Just Tracking When Communication Really Matters

At YB Tracking, we do far more than simply put positions on a map.

Supporting events around the world means providing organisers with the tools, technology and reassurance they need when conditions become challenging.

This year's Route du Rhum has proven to be one of the toughest editions, with several incidents requiring the experience, quick thinking and coordination of the Race Management team.

While modern yachts have access to various communication systems, having an additional, reliable means of communication can make a significant difference when situations become difficult.

That's where YB Tracking's two-way satellite messaging provides another important layer of safety.

Through the YB Race Management platform, race organisers can communicate directly with the YB tracker on board a yacht, sending and receiving messages independently of conventional mobile networks.

Sailors can access and send messages using a compatible smartphone or directly through the YB tracker's built-in screen and keypad, providing an additional backup if a smartphone becomes unavailable.

This gives Race Management another valuable communication channel, particularly when conventional systems are unavailable or unreliable.

It's the Small Differences That Matter

Satellite tracking is often judged by how accurately a boat appears on a map. But for YB Tracking, the service goes much further.

Our focus is on providing organisers with a complete solution that combines reliable position reporting, two-way communication, race management tools and 24/7 support.

These additional capabilities may seem like small differences between satellite tracking providers, but when an incident occurs hundreds of miles offshore, they can become invaluable.

Because when it really matters, tracking is about more than knowing where someone is. It's about being able to communicate with them. YB Tracking – More than a position on a map.
