Yellowbrick™ Tracking devices are on board for sponsorship with their ‘YB3’!


We just received confirmation from Yellowbrick™ that they will be sponsoring the River Gambia Expedition 2012 with a YB3 Tracking Device – ‘Yellowbrick3 has been designed to withstand the harshest of environments. And with our heritage in offshore racing, you can be sure that we’re not just saying that…!’

The YB3  will allow us to get GPS co-ordinates and transmit our position back to the blog, ‘from anywhere on earth‘.  Ensuring that we have ‘truly global coverage. Absolutely no dead spots.’ Simply put, you can follow us on the whole journey up the River Gambia!

We can even Twitter, send emails and text -wherever we are on our journey. So, there will be no escape from our adventures – we’ll be transmitting our position up to four times a day to where you can follow us on a web based map.

Seriously though, if we get into any sticky situations, we will be able to send an SOS signal, with our co-ordinates.

Therefore, we’re very happy and thankful to be sponsored by Yellowbrick™
