Wind. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105824/

Unbelievable footage and action!
I could have sworn I did a search for sailing movies and this never came up.


I just bought 2. One for me and one for my father as a Christmas gift.

Good movie, I like the scenes where they're testing the boat design out in the desert. I think I have the VHS of it, possibly the DVD.

Bought the DVD a few months ago. Even my wife liked it. She was quizzing me when we went out after watching it so I guess she was paying attention to the movie. It is a classic from the early 2000's that is a must-have in your Sailing video collection. What about Master & Commander?

I like the special spin sail called the "thumper" as I recall. Plus the fact that the sailor gets.the girl. Which really doesn't happen in real life!

Lol, the Whomper. Yea, I kinda laughed at that part. Seemed a little cheezy.

I like Master and Commander. I've seen it several times on tv, so it hasn't made it to my library just yet.
