One of the world largest and most powerful racing yachts is berthed in Greystones Marina for 2 days before the start of the Round Ireland Yacht Race from Wicklow Harbour on the 28^th June. The Volvo Open 70 took part in a previous Round the World Race and will be based in Greystones while preparing for the coming race.

It is based in Greystones because it is the deepest marina on the East Coast, and it is an impressive sight. It will probably leave the harbour around 10 a.m. on Friday.
