With the start of Leg Five just two days away, the PUMA Ocean Racing team is busy preparing for the longest leg of the Volvo Ocean Race. The team is now going over what needs to be wrapped up before setting off to Brazil. Vacuum pack the survival suits, check and re-check all the food supplies, prepare the customs documents…the list is sure to keep the crew busy.
