it would be incredibly awesome to be able to download the entire documentary via iTunes...I wouldn't even mind having to pay for the download! It's just really inspiring to watch, thank you!
This is Ocean Racing !! "What did we just hit??(Sanya)" Fit a new mast only to have to make the choice to retire "Yeah were turning the boat around(Abu Dhabi)" After 15 days of racing "Do we turn around and help Puma??(Telefonica)" Massive choices for any sailor!! God Bless & good luck !
Awesome but I can't help thinking that with so many boats broken in leg 1, perhaps the boat designs have compromised their strength too much in the drive for speed. Looking forward to leg 2 and I hope they all make it through without any more major problems. How does Ken Read stay so laid back!? Good luck guys.
@PooleChris89 You can't separate rig design from boat design. Problem in weight, they all try yo make hull and rig lower weight as possible and sometimes they forget about safety.
@CabbagePatch592 If you paid attention you would realize that its not the boat design its the rig design aspect that is flawed, last race no rigs were lost but lots of boat damage so far no boat damage (except Sanya which is from the last generation) and this race it seems the rig design although puma's looks like just a simple gear failure rather then design
This was the best volvo ocean race series. Please bring this back! I wan't more of this!
May 2021-Still re watching, love this series of this race
Fantastische docu over de eerste leg van de Volvo Ocean Race 2011/2012. Wat een helden!
Ian, you kept me alive in a mental hospital in Geneva...11/12.
See you soon S
Great job. Despite having watched all the footage from earlier videos and following the race, this documentary had a lot of interesting information.

Crazy guys...! Great documentary!
This is great. It would be nice if it were downloadable (hint hint) so I could watch it on the go and indeed also for inspiration...
@Eltoca21 All of the daily highlights are available via iTunes for download.
thx for the upload well presented

It looks. You're Very Talented. violet scrub !!
I noticed at around 7:00 the sailors were using a small SAF to cut the ropes, should they have prepared a larger one??
Sorry a newb here
@poolechris89 Perhaps I wasn't specific enough in my language; I was including rig in 'boat design.' I did pay attention...
