GREEN DRAGON is the most perfect Volvo 70 Class boat to combine serious racing, race charter, cruising and conversion project.

There are several features making her preferable to other Volvo 70s, such as:

  • contemporary Carbon C6 Rigging not having any expiry date like Kevlar or PBO
  • large spare rigging inventory
  • engine Saildrive transmission fitted (reliable and safe - no further hassle with retractable shaft)
  • no hydraulics for trimming
  • extremely weel built hull, no structural problems during the Volvo Ocean Race and since very little use and almost no serious racing after the Volvo Ocean Race
  • thanks to her interior layout and original structure, she is very well suited for an interior conversion project
