 Volvo Ocean Race  Carolijn Brouwer NED and Marie Riou FRA join Team Dongfeng
The French-Chinese 'Dongfeng Race Team' have selected Carolijn Brouwer NED and Marie Riou FRA for their Volvo Ocean Race campaign in 2017-18 – a move that confirms the impact of a rule change introduced by the race to encourage mixed male-female crews. The two women bring a wealth of experience to Charles Caudrelier’s team, including a total of five Olympic Games and a host of world titles. The Dutch triple Olympian participated in two Volvo Ocean Races, in the last edition as co-skipper of the all-female team 'SCA'. Marie Riou FRA won the last four Nacra-17 World Championships with Billy Besson FRA.
