Volvo Ocean 70 – Cockatoo
At the launch the Volvo Open 70 was not a singular yacht design but a set of design rules to which competing boats must adhere. Competing teams design and build boats within the scope of this rule to try and come up with the fastest boat . The Volvo 70 repeatedly broke monohull speed record and Volvo 70's held the record for over 10 years. The Volvo 70 was replaced in the Ocean race in 2014/15 by the Volvo 65 but the Volvo 70 live on and are regular seen on the race course competition at the highest level around the world.
Cockatoo competed in the 2008-2009 as Kosatka with her designed optimised for power reaching. The current owner purchased her from Sydney and has refitted all the technical system and brought her back to Europe.
The Volvo 70's were designed and built for high performance, long distance offshore racing at the highest level. They are pure-bred racing machine, ready to endure the toughest of conditions. Cockatoo is a great boat for offshore race charter. She is ideal for a team looking to experience racing and an iconic Grand Prix Class Zero yacht.
