Those of you who know a little about us will not be surprised that we whooped and hollared when Day1 were appointed by leading corporate sailing company, Britannia Events, to develop their new, content managed website.

We had already done a little business together through our sister company Esprit de Corps - providing a skipper and yacht for a fiercely-contested lawyers' regatta earlier this year. During the post-event celebrations, it transpired that our land-based services may be useful too.

In a two-way pitch, we won the work and the new website is due to go live in October 04.

"Day1 have a refreshing approach - they not only analysed our brief, but they got to know our business and our processes, examining what we wanted the new website to do beyond the obvious 'brochure' site.

The solution has not only given us a stunning website, but it has also migrated many of the administrative elements of our business onto the website, streamlining our operation, which will release quite a few man-hours in the office and freeing us up to enjoy more on-the-water action - which is after all, what we are all about!"

Early in the new year we hope to be extending the site to accommodate a new regatta for the retail industry which will have its own website and URL with a link to the main Britannia Events site. Watch this space...
