Volvo Ocean Race - His Majesty the King visited Team Brunel this morning, where he was given a guided tour of the Dutch Volvo Ocean Race boat by skipper Bouwe Bekking. In the cockpit, he met the crew members of the Dutch Volvo Ocean Race team. The nine men discussed their participation in the race with the King, while giving him an idea of day-to-day life on board.
The Volvo Ocean Race fleet is currently in Scheveningen for a so-called pit stop, after which the ninth Volvo Ocean Race leg will be restarted today. The boats will depart in the sequence in which they arrived, with the time differences booked on the previous day. Following a race off the coast of Scheveningen, they will set sail for Gothenburg, where they are expected to arrive around 22nd June.
