Expedition is simply the best tactical and navigation software available. Expedition supports more instrument systems, is easier to use and has the most powerful and useful functions for the racing navigator.

Expedition and its tools have been developed since the 1993/4 Whitbread by veteran Volvo Ocean Race navigator and Whitbread winner, physicist Nick White. Expedition has been used in multiple Volvo Ocean, America's Cup and Grand Prix events since.

Expedition is continually refined by a core group of world-renowned navigators, including two-time America’s Cup winning navigator Peter Isler.

The end result is a system that wins more races and is far more advanced and usable in all aspects than any other tactical software available - whether racing around the world or your local harbor.
