Tracker

Follow the sailing course from Stanley Tasmania to Walkerville South Victoria taken by Adrian and Josh. Latitude and logitude positions will be taken at intervals as they sail the course across Bass Strait.

Part of the project is being a test bed for various technologies. In addition to Next G phone and satellite tracking, direct mobile phone updates can be obtained courtesy of Datacall.

After opening the Tracker page you can adjust your browser to provide a full screen view. The function key F11 for Firefox and Internet Explorer toggles on and off the full screen view.
