Vendée Globe boats Position reports

[yrichomme]

Is there anyway to get the position of the Vendée Globe boats onto Windy?
It would be great to foloow directly into 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:

Here 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? :)

@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..
