Overview
GREEN DRAGON is a fantastic Volvo 70 Class boat, which can be used for serious racing, race charter, cruising and even as a conversion project. Several features make her preferable to other Volvo 70s, such as her contemporary carbon C6 rigging, which does not have an expiry date like its kevlar or PBO counterparts. Her hull has been extremely well constructed and she has experienced no structural issues while racing (in the Volvo Ocean Race) and since. Her interior, furthermore, is spacious and would make GREEN DRAGON an excellent conversion project. Lastly, she has been very little used since the Volvo Ocean Race, and is thus in prime condition to continue sailing.
