Special features make her outstanding from most other Volvo 70:

With her cockpit layout with the additional pair of traveller winches she is the best choice for large pro-am crews.
a retrofitted Saildrive is replacing the original retractable shaft and makes the boat a lot safer and reliable in harbour and safety maneuvers

Construction
In 2016 the underwatership was completley stripped down to the original hull filler and built up a new system with Veneziani’s Speedy Carbonium.

hull : Carbon composite
superstructure : Carbon composite
deck : Carbon composite
Keel : canting keel with hydraulic rams
Dagger boards : 2 (+ 2 spares)

Green Dragon competed in the 2008/09 Volvo Ocean Race. It was the first participation of skipper Ian Walker who later won the Volvo Ovean Race in the first edition of the Volvo 65 class with Abu Dhabi. Green Dragon is a very good overall performer and has a sweet spot in reaching. Current home base is Vigo in Spain, an excellent strategic place located half way between North Europe and the Med as well as being an ideal departure and arrival place for Atlantic crossings.
