Expedition is a complete tactical and navigation package developed by veteran Volvo Ocean Race navigator and Whitbread winner Nick White. Two-time America’s Cup winning navigator Peter Isler has consulted closely in the development of the system.

Expedition was initially developed for Team News Corps' 2001-2002 Volvo Ocean Race campaign and the Stars & Stripes Americas Cup team.

Expedition has been continually refined by a core group of world-renowned navigators to the point where it is the most user friendly and powerful yacht racing software available today.
