With 177 days until the London 2012 Olympic Games, the International Sailing Federation has launched their Olympic website.
The website will be the home of Olympic Sailing during London 2012 with all the information, stories, results and multimedia that teams and spectators will need.
As Member National Authorities start to name their sailors for London 2012, the ISAF Olympic Games website will be the one stop shop to find out who has been selected to sail for their nation at Weymouth and Portland, Great Britain.
Tim Sewell, ISAF Head of Marketing, said, "With some exciting feature pieces and sailor profiling lined up in the build up to the Olympic Games, the new website will provide all the latest and relevant content relating to the Olympic Sailing Competition."
Alongside the multimedia and qualification material all the relevant documents, equipment information, general information, historical data and more are available.
