The Race organisers at the Island Sailing Club together with J.P. Morgan Asset Management and their Race Communications teams headed up by Peta Stuart-Hunt for the Race, J.P. Morgan's agency Into the Blue and Next Generation Results (NGR), are honoured to have been nominated for a Maritime Foundation Award this year.
The Race website, designed and maintained by Andrew Rayner and his team at NGR and its entire contents supplied by a mix of internal and external resources - from all the news elements to the comprehensive practical information, plus outstanding imagery, videos and blogging, not to mention the importance of tracking technology and results - received a Certificate of Merit in the First Sea Lord's Digital Media category.
The 85th edition of this globally recognised Race is being held on 2nd July which will be J.P. Morgan Asset Management's final outing as Title Sponsor. They intend to make it a true celebration of everything that is best and most loved about this extraordinary day on the water; a day that annually attracts over 1,500 yachts and 12,000 competitors.
Entries open on January 15th 2016.
Meanwhile, the Island Sailing Club invites anyone interested in discussing the title sponsorship of the Round the Island Race from 2017 onwards to contact the Sponsorship Manager Dave Atkinson at:dvatkin@gmail.com or call +44 (0)7889 790698.
