Description
Here’s a priceless opportunity to sail with a legend as he gets ready to circumnavigate the globe.
Rhode Islander Ken Read is inviting the high bidder and a guest aboard PUMA’s 2011-12 Volvo Ocean Race entry for a training day on Rhode Island Sound on a mutually-agreeable date before July third.
With boatloads of America’s Cup experience and over 40 yachting championships himself, Captain Read – and the PUMA team – are serious contenders for the title in the next Volvo Ocean Race. They came in second last time (2008-09), but intend to move up aboard PUMA’s new craft, the Rhode Island-built Mar Mostro!
Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime chance!
Special Instructions
High bidder will be contacted by the station after the auction and must follow up with PUMA Racing forthwith to make arrangements.
