Competitors in the Volvo Ocean Race, the world’s premier round the world race, will cover almost 35,000 nautical miles of the globe’s most treacherous seas over a period of more than eight months.
The Volvo Ocean Race 2008-09 will start in the Spanish port of Alicante at 11. October 2008
The 2005-06 race reached a television audience of over 1.8 billion
ranking it among the leading international sporting events. The race
attracts in-depth coverage from the world’s media and uses ground-breaking
technology on board each yacht to relay all the action around the world.
• The Volvo Ocean Race yachts, the Volvo Open 70s, are crewed by
professional yachtsmen and women. The boat design is regulated and built
for speed whilst safety reindexs a key concern.
• The first 31,250 nautical-mile race first took place over 30 years ago
(as the Whitbread Round the World Race), testing the crews against some of
the most ferocious elements that man can encounter. The 2008-09 race will
be the 10th edition of the event.
