New website the Atlantic classic

Sporting a fresh new look and simple navigation, the official ARC 2005 website has now been launched, ready for the departure of ARC 2005 in two weeks time. 230 yachts will leave Las Palmas de Gran Canaria on the 20th November and finishes in St Lucia. The 2700nm passage is expected to take the yachts between 16 and 21 days.

This site will have ARC news, feature stories, yacht logs and crew profiles from this year's race and a picture gallery.

Once the fleet sets sail on 20 November, the site will display the latest yacht positions and Atlantic weather, including sharper maps, satellite and weather overlays.
