Volvo Ocean Race

A gleaming, circular gold medal for the Volvo Ocean Race, 3 inches in diameter, hangs from a navy blue ribbon with white wave patterns. The medal features a raised relief of a sleek racing yacht cresting a stylized wave, surrounded by compass rose points. The race logo and year are engraved below. The reverse side displays a world map with the race route highlighted. The medal's edge is etched with nautical rope design. Subtle flecks of sea-glass green accent the wave motifs. The medal is suspended at eye level, slowly rotating to catch the light. Soft, diffused lighting creates a sense of depth and dimension. The background is a blurred, misty seascape at dawn, with hints of sails on the horizon. Closeup view, focus on intricate details and metallic sheen. Photorealistic style with dramatic shadows emphasizing the medal's contours and engravings.
