Picture of the Week: February 16, 2009

Magnus Woxen hangs on aboard Ericcson 3 (Gustav/Morin-Ericcson 3/ Volvo Ocean Race)

I nicknamed this week's picture of the Week "Whiplash" You can clearly see the speeds reached by the Volvo Open 70 boats in the VOR. Magnus Woxen is well braced on the lows side aboard Ericcson 3 as the water just whizzes by. Catch more of the Volvo Ocean Race Action at www.volvooceanrace.org.
