Sailing star Khalid now fit

, April 5, 2015

Emirati sailing star Adil Khalid, from Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing (Ador) – the emirate’s Volvo Ocean Race (VOR) contesting squad – is now fit after recovering from illness. The UAE trimmer and helmsman was forced to miss out on both Leg 4 and Leg 5 of the round-the-world epic after being struck down with severe food poisoning on the eve of the fleet’s departure from Sanya, China, on February 8. He will rejoin his crewmates aboard Azzam for the start of Leg 6, which departs Itajai, Brazil for Newport, US on April 19.
