What's New

Key West Race Week 08
Congratulations to Andy Fisher and the team onboard the Swan 42 Bandit for winning the Swan 42 class. Bandit is powered by Ockam Instruments. In fact 4 of the top 5 finishers in the competitive Swan 42 class are powered by Ockam Instruments. 
  • Tiburon – 2nd
  • Amelia – 3rd
  • Vitesse – 5th
This was a tough Key West with very tricky winds.  There was too much wind to race on day one and not enough wind on day three with everything in between on the days that races were held.

This made it even more important to have instruments that were up to the challenging conditions which helped boats like Bandit to come out on top.  Ockam Instruments along with it’s top finishers at Key West proved once again to be a reliable and accurate winning combination.
