OCEAN BREEZE is a second generation Volvo Open 70, started in 2008 as TELEFONICA BLUE, designed by the Farr office and built by King Marine. She entered the following edition of the VO-race as SANYA LAN. Now she is ready for race-charters, incentives and corporate sailing. After a big overhaul and a brand new set of sails she is stored in a heated boat shed 30 minutes from Schiphol, Amsterdam in the Netherlands. Ready for new adventures.

During the race, the course included a natural obstacle — a small, rocky island. The depths were safe, and the skipper decided to take a tight line around it. But just behind the island, the wind shifted unexpectedly, and a sudden gust drove the yacht’s bow straight toward the rocks. With minimal room to maneuver, the skipper reacted quickly and managed to regain control. However, in the process of steering clear, the keel scraped against the rocks. The result: a few scratches and the loss of half the team’s security deposit. A hard lesson learned — always keep a safe distance from the rocks! #PAPARegatta #PAPARegatta2021 #TheArtOfSailing #ArtOfSailing #DangerousRocks #RocksCrash #CroatiaSailing #CroatiaYachting #SailingRace #SailingFails
