MEEZEILEN MET DE VO65 CHILDHOOD1
The Volvo Ocean Race ended in June 2018. After a nerve-racking battle, the VO65 Team Brunel finished in third place. The next race will start in 2021, under a new name: The Ocean Race, in which the VO65 class will again participate. We welcome "fans and friends" on board to prepare for this race. From the home port of Scheveningen we made various trips in the summer of 2019 to places including Kiel, Stockholm, Aarhus and Southampton. We broke the record Gotland Runt, sailed the Fastnet Race and sailed Pro-Ams against Team Akzo Nobel. This winter we will travel to the Caribbean. Under a new name: Childhood. In the spring we are back in Scheveningen.
A trip with the VO65 is an experience that you will never forget. On board everyone gets the chance to help; steering, hoisting the sails or helping on the foredeck. During an offshore you participate in the waiting system and you are fully part of the crew. The experienced crew, consisting of young talented sailors with the dream to sail the next Ocean Race, will gladly show you on board and tell you the tips and tricks of the VO65.
To sail along, we request a donation for the Childhood foundation and also a contribution to the Ocean Race 2021-22 campaign.
