In sailing, weather is not a condition to play around. It is the competition itself.
Regional weather radar resolves entire territory. It was not used to resolve one stretch of race water.
The Louis Vuitton Cup raced through the Gulf of Cagliari. One of the most watched sailing competitions in the world.
ELDES deployed a WR-10X X-band Weather Radar System on-site for the full duration of the competition.
📍 A single, compact solution.
📍 One stretch of water.
📍 High-resolution and real-time monitoring that regional radar cannot offer.
Not watching the region. Watching the race.
The biggest events often come down to the smallest details no one sees.
What’s something about race-day weather risk that most spectators never think about?
