Building the Future – Part 7

Last video update of the week on the new One Design boat! After visiting the Italian and French boatyards Persico and Multiplast, Volvo Ocean Race's Rick Deppe dropped in at Green Marine in the UK.

Rick concludes his European road-trip at Green Marine in Southampton, England.

We're given a privileged sneak peek at the full-scale wooden mock-up of the Volvo Ocean 65 which has been built there, in preparation for putting together the real thing for the 2014-15 race.  

Remember, the work on the boats is going on at four boatyards in the UK, Italy, France and Switzerland.

Find here the first construction update, the second update, the third, the fourth, the fifth and the sixth.
