Although the teams of the Talisker Whiskey Atlantic Challenge cross the Atlantic Ocean without support, there are two safety yachts that keep an eye on the fleet throughout its journey.
All the skippers and crew do an excellent job taking care of the teams, working and sleeping in shifts, through unpredictable weather, often racking up far more miles than the teams themselves.
They also send out amazing live footage from the Atlantic to keep all observers up to date.
