Cycle switch

The Volvo Ocean Race will switch from a 3-year to a 2-year cycle after the upcoming 2017-18 edition, a change that will provide more continuity and more commercial value for professional sailing teams, sponsors and Host Cities.

Scallywag set for VOR

The fifth entry to the 2017-18 edition of the Volvo Ocean Race will sail under the name Team Sun Hung Kai/Scallywag and will represent Hong Kong.

Golden future

The Volvo Ocean Race is planning a raft of changes and special commemoration for its 50th anniversary edition in 2023, strengthening its ties with the Southern Ocean, new design boats, shorter legs and more Host Cities.
