The adventure begins at 10.00 a.m. with a briefing session on board given by professional sailor Gonzalo Araujo. Once familiarised with the boat and the necessary safety precautions, we set off for the waters of the estuary to begin the adventure. As we navigate the beautiful Ria of Vigo, you will have the opportunity to pilot the boat and participate in the maneuvers as we fly through the Vigo estuary on our twenty-metre thoroughbred. If the conditions allow it, we can even head for the open ocean, beyond the archipelago of the Cies Islands.
Becoming a Volvo 70 team member for the day and sailing with a professional crew is akin to a world-class training session, with the added bonus of being in the perfect setting offered by the fantastic Galician coastline.
