AkzoNobel, Volvo Ocean partner to create race boat experience




AkzoNobel NV and Volvo Ocean Race have partnered to create race boat experience and to explore a life-size replica of the competing Volvo Ocean 65 (VO65) yachts.
The race boat experience marquee features a cross-section of the one-design boat which offers a fascinating insight into life on board. It also highlights how AkzoNobel products are making an essential contribution to all the Volvo Ocean 65s in the fleet – not just the team AkzoNobel boat.
As well as the cross-section itself, the attraction also includes a huge information board illustrating the key areas of the boats where AkzoNobel’s products can be found.
The race boat experience partnership further extends the company’s commitment to the 2017-18 Volvo Ocean Race, beyond the involvement of team AkzoNobel. As well as being a sustainability partner for the forthcoming edition, the company’s International brand is both official coatings supplier to the Volvo Ocean Race Boatyard and the official Youth Academy Partner.
