With just one month to go to the start of the first leg of the Volvo Ocean Race 2014-15, GAC Pindar is in the thick of ensuring the provision of a seamless logistics support package for the 12th edition of the race that has been nicknamed the 'Everest of Sailing'. As the official logistics provider for the Volvo Ocean Race, the mammoth task that faces GAC Pindar includes logistics and customs clearance of entire race villages and gear for the crews, in addition to emergency supply of spare parts during the race. Due to the sheer size of the race - 38,739 nautical miles across five continents and eleven ports including a pit-stop in The Hague in just nine months - two identical race villages are required and will leapfrog each other across the globe.
