Sailing The World Alone

"SAILING THE WORLD ALONE" Every four years a few hardy sailors undertake the longest yacht race... to circumnavigate the globe single-handed. Twenty skippers from seven nations cross the starting line outside Charleston Harbor in September, 1994 to begin the 27,000 mile adventure of a lifetime. Before the winner crosses the finish line eight months later, two boats sink, one runs aground and another is lost at sea. This is the story of how the survivors tackle disaster and celebrate success. Narrated by Hal Holbrook EMMY AWARD WINNING DOCUMENTARY "It captures not only the drama, but the atmosphere, mystery and romance..."
