Moths to follow Volvo Ocean Race

Following a deal with Bladerider, Puma's mini il mostros to be at all 11 of the Volvo stopover ports

Puma Sailing has partnered with Bladerider International to showcase a duo of fully Puma-branded foiling Moths at all 11 Volvo Ocean Race Stopover cities. Crewed by world class Moth sailors, the mini ‘il mostros’ will provide entertainment for spectators as they blast around the harbour each day in every port.

Bladerider Moths are one of the fastest growing small boat classes in the world. Lifting out of the water in just five knots of winds and achieving boat speeds of over 25 knots in 20 knots of breeze, these boats dart around on their hydrofoils just like their namesakes, moths in the night. Attracting crowds of astounded onlookers, the Puma Moths will be quite a spectacle for each of the Volvo race villages around the world. In addition to the race stopovers, Puma and Bladerider will also enter the Puma Moths in local Moth regattas where they coincide with stop-overs.
