Sun Hung Kai/Scallywag: Our Story in the Volvo Ocean Race (video)

Sun Hung Kai / Scallywag video above published Jul 10, 2018: the team's recap of the Volvo Ocean Race 2017-2018 edition.

IT WAS A JOURNEY THAT WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN

"This is the Volvo Ocean Race, the ultimate test of a team in professional sport, and Team Sun Hung Kai/Scallywag were tested heavily throughout their 8 months at sea, travelling over 45,000 nautical miles around the globe.

"There were many highs, and terrible lows that the team went through, but the thought of giving up never once crossed the mind of skipper David Witt and the rest of the Scallywags, on and off shore.

"As all things do come to an end, we can all look back at the intense, amazing, yet unforgettable journey that we have all endured. From the sailors to the fans, friends and families, we want to thank everyone for all the support and for every word of encouragement you all have shared throughout this race."
