Morten Lannmark owns and campaigns a Volvo Ocean 60, a former Whitbread Round the World race boat originally named *Toshiba*.5:46 Built to strict box-rule specifications in 1997, the vessel features a carbon-fiber hull and an original aluminum mast.18:35 Lannmark purchased the boat in Germany for a low price, noting that while the hull remains structurally sound, the electrical systems required significant overhaul.13:39 He uses the boat for both cruising and occasional regattas, though he notes that the handicap rating makes it difficult to win on corrected time against smaller, modern boats.41:57 During a passage from Bergen to Shetland, the boat achieved line honors but finished last on corrected time.28:01 Lannmark modified the interior with hardwood floors and replaced a manual head with an electric pump.7:51 He also installed a custom anchor system, though he now keeps the primary anchor stowed inside the hull during rough conditions to prevent damage to the Kevlar bow.34:33
