Skipper Ian Walker aboard Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing’s boat Azzam, currently leading the VOR.
I haven’t been intentionally neglecting posting about ADOR, as much as I’ve been frustrated by a lack of video content from the boat. As with the other teams, there’s an ADOR YouTube channel, but the only content with which it’s been updated since the start of the race has been videos filmed before the start of Leg 1.
This video, which I love, is not from the team’s own channel; it’s from the official VOR channel, though it’s listed there as “unpublished” and didn’t show up in my YouTube subscription feed. I only learned about it because a helpful user posted it in the Sailing Anarchy discussion for Leg 1.
It looks like this video was shot on the afternoon of October 19, as the boat sailed west on starboard tack after passing north of the Cape Verde Islands.
Go Azzam.
