About Channel Tracking

Tracking gives swimmers, crews and supporters a live view of relay boats as they cross the English Channel. Positions are useful for following progress, but they should never replace instructions from the pilot, skipper or safety crew.

Stay informed

Follow progress in near real time.

Support the crew

See how the team is doing.

Plan and prepare

Use tracking and weather together.

Safety first

Tracking supports coordination.

FAQs

How accurate is the tracking?

Accuracy depends on the boat's GPS equipment, signal and update interval.

Why does the position sometimes stop updating?

Temporary gaps can happen because of reception or delayed data transmission.

Can I see past crossings?

Historic routes depend on what UltraSwim makes available.

What if a boat disappears from the map?

Do not assume an emergency. Contact the approved team liaison or pilot.
