Yes, a great story and very well told. Guts is guts no matter what gender body it comes packaged in.

I think I've seen Part that one Lydia but it was on normal Tv so couldn't re-watch. Have you seen it on any of the pay tv sites?

Definitely on Netflix as of now.

Is the Alaska one called "Making it fun again" ?

i think we should build on this post with recommendations on good yachting flicks, they seem few in far between in my limited searches of Netflicks
much more on u tube though.

i check out Lydia's recommendation, thanks

The problem I had in finding it was that we get Netflix on our TV through a "Fetch" box. Doing a search using the crude interface did not reveal it. I finally found it by going to Movies-Documentaries and painfully scrolling through all the movies in this category.

Help me guys, I've searched Netflix for Race to Alaska, and Making it Fun Again, and scrolled through documentary movies, no luck.

Thanks for suggesting "Maiden" -very inspiring movie! Another good sailing film is currently streaming on SBS- "Turning Tide" based on the Vendee Globe Race
