Artemis Investment Management has supported sailing from grass roots to the highest level since 2006.

2006
• Investment Management company Artemis begin its association and support of British sailing.
• July: a high profile campaign is developed around an IMOCA 60 offshore racing team, launched under the name “Artemis Ocean Racing”.
• August: the newly branded Artemis Ocean Racing IMOCA 60 (initially launched in 2002) sets off on her first race, the Sevenstar Round Britain and Ireland race, eventually taking line honours with Jonny Malbon as skipper.
• November: skippered by round-the-world record holder Brian Thompson, Artemis Ocean Racing takes 6th place in the classic single-handed Route du Rhum between France and Guadeloupe, after 13 days and 17 hours at sea.

2007
• June: Artemis Ocean Racing, skippered by Jonny Malbon, competes in the Calais Round Britain Race and finishes 6th, as the first of the older generation IMOCA 60s to cross the line.
• August: The Artemis Challenge, staged at the world-famous Cowes Week, makes its debut. The event sees a fleet of IMOCA 60s charging around the Isle of Wight in a unique race, raising money for good causes. A £10,000 prize fund is donated by Artemis and goes to the winner’s choice of charity.
• October: construction of the new Artemis IMOCA 60 starts in Lymington (UK).
• November: second transatlantic campaign for the team, this time double-handed from France to South America. Unfortunately, after four days at sea, Jonny Malbon and Graham Tourell see the mast of the IMOCA 60 break in very heavy seas.

2008
• April: Artemis Ocean Racing II is launched.
• May: Artemis’ sailing event portfolio increases with the advent of The Artemis Transat, heir of the original 1960 OSTAR, first-ever single-handed race across the Atlantic. Thirteen of the best soloists of the world take the start in Plymouth, and the race is eventually won by French legend Loïck Peyron in Boston. In doing so, Peyron captures his third win on the course and beats the master Tabarly himself.
• August: Artemis Ocean Racing II makes her first competitive outing during the second edition of the Artemis Challenge.
• November: Jonny Malbon and Artemis Ocean Racing II take the start of the Vendée Globe (round-the-world, solo, non-stop). After a solid start, both boat and skipper survive a huge storm in the Bay of Biscay while many teams have to retire due to gear failure.
