Vendée Globe boats Position reports
-
Is there anyway to get the position of the Vendée Globe boats onto Windy?
It would be great to foloow directly into windy. -
@yrichomme Hello, there is not such option on Windy.

Hey Admins, that would be really nice feature. I was searching it as well, I believe it can spread the word out about windy and help with marketing. Pass it on to your team. Thanks

A Windy user, @kbsali, has developed a plugin to get the position of the boats in the Vendée Globe race:
https://community.windy.com/topic/9250/list-of-finished-windy-plugins/9Here are the boats positions on Windy wind map (customized). But you can use too the Wave map, the Route planner and many other layers.
Only available on website not in the app.

@kbsali thank you for this!!
Anyway you could combine trackers of Sodebo and Rothshild that just started their Jules Verne attempts? :)
-
On the burger menu, click on the plugin regatadata, and all vendee globe boat appears !!
-
@Ghini I have asked both teams over twitter, no answer yet; but I know from someone working with Gitana, that they are not willing to share their track : they want people to use their official tracker. :/
-
@kbsali ok cool, thanks! Would be nice since they started so close to each other.. Fingers crossed..

Dear all,
Did anyone develop a link/API to follow Vendée Globe positions into windy, such as for the mini transat ? (I mean for 2024 :) )
Many tks !!! -
@Astrid_ I have developped a plugin that is being reviewed for approval by the admins
see https://community.windy.com/topic/37370/2024-vendee-globe-yacht-tracking/24?_=1731935873549 -
FYI the plugin has been validated and published, you will find it in the list of plugins : https://www.windy.com/plugins :)

Cool, thank you!
