Behind the Scenes with PUMA on Discovery.com

Discovery.com is running a series on its blog that follows PUMA Ocean Racing and the grueling work involved with participating in the Volvo Ocean Race. While many sailors may know the hard work that it entails to sail around the world, this series introduces the sport of competitive ocean racing to a large community that is not as familiar with it but still offers an interesting look at the race from a new perspective even for the avid sailor. And we think that any coverage of sailing that brings the sport to a new audience and debunks the myth that sailors are all living in the lap of luxury is a great thing.
