What would you say if you had the opportunity to win a new Volvo C30 and participate in the famous Race Around the World, The Volvo Ocean Race?
A global event which is the biggest and most difficult race to sail ever.
Discover the Southern Ocean and its icebergs, Cape Horn and its horrendous storms, the Doldrums and excruciating light wind conditions but also the emotion and joy of arriving safely in exotic places like Cape Town, Gingdao or Rio de Janeiro .

Since 1973, we have been millions to follow the exploits of exceptional sailors like Eric Tabarly, Paul Cayard or Peter Blake gone to enjoy a great sporting and human adventure around the world.
Imagine yourself at the helm of a 70 feet boat capable of traveling at speeds of 30+ knots, to race against the best sailors in the world as Ken Read and Torben Grael on a journey of 37,000 miles divided into ten legs.
Sailors around the world have found their way to the Virtual Volvo Ocean Race Game. With over 10000 already registered captains coming from 98 countries so far we can safely say that a true global sailing community has been created for your enjoyment!
