Navy Showtime For Volvo Ocean Race Sightseers
The Royal Navy will be contributing to the crowd entertainment and spectacle accompanying the Volvo Ocean Race stopover in Portsmouth (May 19 to June 2) by providing a free show on the water and in the air.
For the first time in Portsmouth since the International Festival of the Sea last year, a warship will be open to visitors – the Type 42 destroyer HMS Exeter, berthed at South Railway Jetty, an area of the Naval Base to which the public do not normally have access.
Exeter, one of the Navy’s highly capable air-defence ships, all based at Portsmouth, will be open over the Bank Holiday weekend (May 27-29). Then on June 2, when the race restarts for the Portsmouth-Rotterdam leg, Modern and historic Naval aircraft will provide sightseers with a rare spectacle.
