J/24 Champion Ken Read Racing PUMA in VOR
Ken and crew are preparing for another rock around the clock! Good Luck! PUMA announced last week that it will participate in the Volvo Ocean Race 2011-2012 after placing second overall in the 2008-2009 competition. Led by Kenny in the last race, Ken will again be in charge of the PUMA Ocean Racing team, and shares his thoughts about the team, the lessons learned in the last race, and how they seek to improve for the next race. Scuttlebutt has an interesting series of interviews with Ken here.
