The fourth stage of the Volvo Ocean Race was launched yesterday in the city of Sanya. Due to bad weather conditions, the stage was split into two parts - a short race near the port, then, when the weather improves, a restart in the order of finishing on the first leg. Now the Pacific Ocean is in front of the yachtsmen, accompanied by the statue of Guanyin, a Buddhist god who rescues people from all kinds of disasters. Will it help the yachtsmen?
