Exceptional racing performance defines this Volvo Ocean Race 65, a vessel with a storied history on the international stage. Previously known as Team Brunel and later Team JAJO, this yacht secured second place in the 2014-15 and 2023 editions of the race, showcasing its enduring speed and competitive capabilities. The hull is constructed from advanced carbon materials, measuring 20.04 meters in length with a 4.78-meter draft, optimized for extreme offshore conditions.
Meticulously maintained, the yacht underwent a comprehensive refit by Royal Huisman in 2022, followed by significant technical updates in early 2023. Recent works included a complete underwater paint system, new non-skid decking, and the installation of Seadek in the cockpit. Structural integrity remains a priority, with the hull, deck, keel, mast, and canting keel system undergoing rigorous NDT testing to ensure peak performance.
Technological and mechanical upgrades performed between late 2022 and early 2023 include advancements in hydraulics, electronics, and sail configurations. Deck hardware, including blocks, jammers, and bearings, has been largely replaced or serviced, ensuring the vessel is fully optimized for immediate race readiness. The interior is functional, featuring one cabin designed for the needs of a dedicated racing crew.
This Volvo Ocean Race 65 is currently located in the Netherlands and is offered at 550.000 EUR. Please note that the price is exclusive of VAT and agency commission.
