Mauritius Regatta 2013
The Mauritius Regatta is being held from 18th to 25th May 2013. The Franco-Swiss watchmaker Ralf Tech, already official timer of the Vendée Globe 2012/2013, has expressed the desire to sponsor the event. He'll be joined by the amphibious boat creator Sealegs, and by Champagnes Nicolas Feuillatte partner of the event since its very first edition in the Seychelles in 2009.

Ralf Tech, official timer of the Mauritius Regatta: Launched in 1998, the Ralf Tech company was entirely dedicated to the manufacturing of professional scuba diving material. On the fifth of July 2005, Ralf Tech beats the world record of depth scuba diving with an immersion time of almost 10 hours, at more than 330 meters below the water surface. That day, the scuba diver was wearing the first Ralf Tech watch, the WR1. This record remains unbeaten and to this day, no other watches has gone deeper on the arm of an unassisted diver.

In 2008, Ralf Tech chooses to concentrate for good on the watchmaking business, with a strong DNA and an ambitious project: conceive, develop, and produce watches with character, precise, reliable and sturdy.

Special forces units of the French 'Marine Nationale' Commandos, operators of the special force of the gendarmerie 'GIGN', Vendée Globe skippers, all of which, alongside Ralf Tech are participating in the watches' development and continuous improvement.

At Ralf Tech, experience rules.

Vendée Globe 2012/2013 winner, François Gabart wears every day his Ralf Tech WRX 'A' Hybrid. This particular watch is used by several units of the French Special Forces and was worn by most skippers of the latest edition of the mythical race around the world. Sturdy, and with a quality standard ISO 6425 for Dive Watches that is not only met but exceeded, the Ralf Tech WRX 'A' Hybrid is incredibly precise thanks to its innovative hybrid movement combining in one unique system the advantages of the quartz movement, to those of the automatic traditional movements.

Sealegs, official supplier of amphibious boats: For this first Mauritius Regatta, Sealegs, an innovative company with a revolutionary concept in the yachting field, will lend one of his amphibious boats for the transferring of participants and journalists.

Since their arrival on the market in 2004, Sealegs has revolutionised the motor boat and luxurious boat dinghy world. Used by the army, coastguards and for emergency operations as well, Sealegs boats allow the user to go from sea to land and vice versa without having to set foot on the ground. Thanks to their motorised retractable wheels, Sealegs boats can drive you from your storage location down a boat ramp, from the beach into the water with all the occupants staying in the boat and remaining completely dry ! With Sealegs, the boat owner can concentrate on what is really important, which is that navigating should remain a pleasure.

Sealegs is also the official marine partner of the New Zealand All Blacks national rugby team since 2010.

Champagnes Nicolas Feuillatte official supplier of champagne: http://www.nicolas-feuillatte.com/!Nicolas_Feuillatte!ne partner of this event since the beginning, has renewed its partnership for this first edition of the Mauritius Regatta.

Nicolas Feuillatte is a brand like no other, loyal to the past, in tune with its time and with an eye on the future. The brand is equally at ease amid the hushed world of academia as in a creative design studio, in the vineyard or attending the hippest party. Avoiding an elitist approach at all costs, the brand encapsulates a lifestyle that combines the pleasure of sharing, the exuberance of lavish entertaining with the intimacy of emotion.

Nicolas Feuillatte is a co-operative that gathers 5000 wine-growers from the Champagne area, all dedicated to the production of a quality champagne. One of the three biggest companies in this industry, Nicolas Feuillatte guaranties that this first Mauritius Regatta will be a sparkling Event website
