Competitors in the class can expect support from Volvo at their events this summer ranging from, coaching appearances from some of the country’s top sailing talent ‘Team Volvo’, the opportunity to ‘win a car’ for events - helping transporting boats and equipment in comfort and safety to exclusive event prizes.
