B&G has been appointed an Official Sponsor by Skandia Team GBR and is supplying a complete suite of electronics for the RIB that will work with the crews to help them prepare for major events in Weymouth and Portland – the venue for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic sailing competitions.

B&G will provide the 8-inch Zeus multifunction chartplotter specifically developed for sailing boats, along with the new Triton instrument system and the latest zero- emission Broadband 4G Radar. Based at the team facility in Portland Marina, the RIB will act as an on-the-water hub for Skandia Team GBR’s preparations and will play a key role in race training, communications, monitoring weather conditions, rest and rehydration in the summer and towing duties when required.

Skandia Team GBR will be in action at the 2012 games from the 29th July 2012, all at B&G would like to wish them the very best of luck!!
