My Ocean Challenge Event In Newport, USA
New stopover, new kids event! Throughout The Ocean Race, Team Malizia has been hosting children's event in every stopover city as well as back in Germany. Today, we met kids from two local schools and told them about our sailing team and the importance of the Ocean.
