Local crew member, Teng, better known as Tiger, was draped in a Chinese flag as he led Mike Sanderson’s men across the line in the 2011-12 Volvo Ocean Race Leg 3 finish, into the team's home port at 12:35:17 UTC, bringing to an end 14 days of gruelling racing in Leg 3 Stage 2 from the Maldives.

Cheers went up from the crowds as they welcomed home the first ever sole Chinese entry in the Volvo Ocean Race.
