Edition: 2017-18
Caption: Antonio 'Ñeti' Cuervas-Mons. MAPFRE.
Ñeti is one of Spain’s most well-known Volvo Ocean Race faces (he even has his own fan club), and lines up for a fourth edition in 2017-18. The bowman has competed in every race since 2008-09, when he made his debut onboard Telefónica Black, but hasn’t limited himself to Volvo Ocean Race sailing – he’s raced in a range of classes from dinghies to Olympic sailing and TP52s, and even smashed the legendary Sydney-Hobart record on supermaxi Perpetual Loyal in 2016.
Previous Volvo Ocean Races:
2014-15 MAPFRE
2011-12 Telefónica
2008-09 Telefónica Black
