31/07/2008 20:59. The activity levels of the participating teams in the 2008
Volkswagen Touareg King of Cowes at Skandia Cowes Week are reaching
fever pitch. Virtually all of the owner helm pairings have
finalised their crew configurations and some have been able to get
some practice time in on the Solent, ready for Fridays start to
Cowes Week.
The King of Cowes event uniquely matches the winning helms of the
major classes at the 2007 Skandia Cowes Week with a randomly drawn
pool of experienced Laser SB3 owners, for a one off regatta to
decide who will be crowned King of Cowes for 2008. Aside from the
kudos of securing the overall title, the winning helm will be
presented with the keys to a brand new Volkswagen Touareg car and
the boat owner will be rewarded with a fantastic Mark Warner family
