Volvo Race Update:
The Volvo Ocean Race is the leading round-the-world sailing race for teams, with a series of stops that give fans the chance to experience the additional In-Port Race series. It began in 1973 as the Whitbread Race. Today it is sailing's biggest offshore race and one of the most coveted prizes in the sport. It lasts for nearly nine months - it's the longest sport event in the world.
This year's race started in Alicante, Spain on Oct. 4 and will finish in Gothenburg, Sweden with a final in-port race on June 27, 2015. The race route spans the globe, stopping at 11 ports, covering 38,739 nautical miles. This week team "Vestas Wind"  from Denmark, skippered by Australian sailor Chris Nicholson, hit a reef in the Indian Ocean and the crew had to abandon the boat. After stripping all the valuables, hardware and electronics, the crew was rescued and transported to safety.
Follow the race..... HERE Here's an article on how a boat bristling with technology could hit a reef. Read it HERE
