What it is

The race doesn't go dark when the fleet leaves the dock.

A sealed, one-way streaming unit on every boat, and a shore-side platform that turns intermittent satellite feeds into a produced 24/7 channel. Nobody has to run it on board: the skipper presses one button and goes back to sailing.

The challenge

Offshore racing is the best story in sport, and the hardest one to show.

Nobody to film it
Solo and short-handed skippers are busy sailing. Streaming has to happen by itself: no laptop, no app, no technician on board.
Rules against outside help
In races like the Golden Globe, skippers may not receive data of any kind. The system has to broadcast without opening a single inbound path.
Months without service
Salt, condensation, shock, scarce power and a satellite link that comes and goes. At sea, nobody is coming to restart it.

In their words

From the race office to the live chat.

For the first time, anyone can follow the Golden Globe Race from on board, and not one of our rules had to bend to make it happen. TriPeak understood the spirit of this race from day one.

TriPeak took my complex, 7-component, power-hungry live stream setup and engineered it into a single tiny, energy-efficient box. It's a real marvel.

Overheard in the YouTube live chat

“Does anyone know why this is so addictive? I worked TV for 35 years and can't stand it, but can't stop this.”

“This is great! It's like the Tour de France, but for sailing fans! I'm leaving this on all year!!!”

“I've been tuned in since Mara first started her Atlantic crossing. It's crazy, this is the greatest thing and I can't stop watching.”

On board

Six buttons and a screen. That's the whole interface.

Designed for a skipper who is cold, tired and busy with the boat. The unit connects several cameras and a microphone, and switching camera or turning on the mic takes one button press. Every control is physical, every status is on the display, and there is nothing to configure at sea, so the skipper keeps the peace of mind they need to focus on the race.

Ashore

Run a fleet broadcast from a browser.

The control room shows every boat's link, camera and position at a glance, with live telemetry, stream quality, recordings and uploads one click away. The channels run unattended around the clock; operators step in when the story calls for it.

Case study

Golden Globe Race 2026

The Golden Globe Race is a solo, non-stop race around the world in the spirit of 1968: no GPS, no computers, no electronic autopilots. Skippers navigate by sextant and paper chart for eight to ten months, through the Southern Ocean and around the three great capes.

TriPeak is the race's streaming platform partner. We designed and built the complete system, from the units on board to the produced channel, and we operate it for the whole race. Fans follow the fleet on GGR Window, a 24/7 channel with daily live windows from boats at sea, while the race's rules on board stay fully intact.
