Navigating the Seas with GPS – The Tall Ships Races 2025 Come to Aberdeen

Tall ships race can be tracked

This summer, the granite city of Aberdeen welcomes one of the world’s most spectacular maritime events: The Tall Ships Races 2025.

As these majestic vessels line the harbour, bringing with them history, adventure, and international camaraderie, there's more than just beauty to admire — there's technology at play, too.

At Equi-track, we offer precision GPS tracking for equipment and assets. That’s why we’re especially excited that all participating tall ships are fitted with satellite transponders, allowing their movements to be tracked in real time throughout the race.

Track the Fleet in Real Time

Thanks to modern satellite tracking, you can follow the exact location of each tall ship as they sail their course. Whether you’re an enthusiast, a crew family member, or just curious, you can track every ship's journey at: 👉 Sail Training International – YB Tracking 2025

Much like how we provide visibility and control for plant and equipment across job sites, this technology gives race organisers and spectators the same clarity over a fleet scattered across international waters.

Why GPS Matters at Sea and on Land

Whether you're managing a fleet of excavators or a fleet of tall ships, real-time location data is vital. For the ships, it ensures safety, efficiency, and race transparency. With Equi-track, GPS tracking brings accountability, operational insights, and peace of mind — knowing exactly where each asset is, any time of day.

Join the Celebration in Aberdeen

The Tall Ships event in Aberdeen runs from Thursday 18th July 2025, featuring parades, open ship visits, crew activities, live music, and fireworks. It’s a celebration of heritage, youth training, and international cooperation — and a great opportunity to witness GPS tracking in action beyond the construction site.
