The full exhilaration of ocean racing is felt as Visit Finland, an entry in the 2011-12 Clipper Round the World Yacht Race, surfs down a wave at 27 knots.
Heading toward the Race 9 finish line, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Finnish team experienced a huge surf after crossing the Pacific Ocean spending 30 days at sea in the race from Qingdao, China, to Oakland, San Francisco Bay.
