Do you have a customer, partner or VIP that would benefit from receiving a copy of the Who’s Who of Yacht Racing?

With 25% off the price of the DARK BLUE BOOK until the 5th of December, this book of key contacts is a great gift. The Dark Blue Book is the first ever ‘Who’s Who of yachting’ book to emerge on the scene, listing the contact details of some of yacht racing's most influential people in the sport, from team principals to sponsors, journalists and event organisers. With a new edition planned for release in 2010, more entries are being sought to add to the many contacts already in the book.

This directory is based on similar ‘little black book’ resources for sports like Formula One and contains people associated with some of the worlds biggest yachting events. This includes the America’s Cup, iShares Cup, Volvo Ocean Race, Vendee Globe, World Match Racing Tour, Audi Med Cup and other well known regattas and offshore races.

The Dark Blue Book is the ultimate resource for those in the business of Yacht Racing and professional sailing. Whether you are a team looking to become more commercial, a rights holder looking to grow your series or event, a supplier looking to increase your network or a company that is considering yacht racing as a platform for promotion of your brand, this book has the contacts inside.

Featuring skippers, sponsorship directors, journalists, photographers, regatta organisers, suppliers, race teams, yacht club commodores and more, the directory is destined to become an invaluable resource for anyone in the business of professional sailing. A second edition is already taking shape for release in 2010 with a focus on people rather than companies and organisations. Free listing is available for all individuals, even if employed by large organizations and will now include sailing CV’s.

As a single source of information the book includes these and many other entries: Alinghi, Paul Cayard, Bruce Farr, Adam Minoprio, Michel Desjoyeaux, Alex Thompson, Ben Ainslie, Telefonica Racing, RC 44 Class, Gareth Brooke, Torben Grael, Rolex Sydney Hobart Race, Slam, Sir Robin Knox-Johnston, Seahorse, Emirates Team New Zealand,Mike Golding, Dawn Riley, The Superyacht Cup, Bruno Trouble, World Racing Forum, Ronstan International, Ian Williams, The Clipper Around the World Race, Loik Peyron, Sail-World.com, Dame Ellen MacArthur, BMW Oracle, Reichel-Pugh Yacht Design Inc, Sailjuice.com, Lynn Fitzpatrick, Mike Golding and more.

'The economic slowdown will have an important impact on professional yacht racing - working together, through a solid network, and sharing a united front to defend the values and benefits of the sport, will be more important than ever. I think the Dark Blue Book will be good initiative in this respect' Mark Turner - CEO, OC Group

'The Dark Blue Book is a fantastic idea and will be an incredible resource for all who sail, race and work or want to get involved in the marine industry!' : Cam Lewis - Pro Sailor
