Camper: Volvo Ocean Race - Heading to Chile for repairs

It has been a tough 24 hours for the Camper Volvo Ocean Race team. After conducting a full assessment of the bow damage suffered 24 hours ago the team has decided that the damage is too significant to repair at sea and therefore will need to make a brief stop at the Chilean port of Puerto Montt to carry out a permanent repair. Exact details are still being worked through but the current intention is to suspend racing when close to Puerto Montt. The team is not withdrawing from Leg 5 and after completing repairs will resume racing from where it was suspended. Camper is competing with the Emirates Team NZ in this year's around-the-world Volvo Ocean Race. Click here to find out more about Camper's participation and progress: http://cam.pr/repairs
