This was NOT a recreation. The movie is a documentary. Disney held a contest to select the young sailors. Roy Disney and his wife financed the boat and crew. They brought in world class sailing experts to train the crew and entered them in the race.
Token black my ASS. My sailing club in Northern Alabama has several black sailors. Please check your prejudices at the door!
I absolutely LOVE this movie... Being a female teen sailor it gives me a dream...Before I graduate college I either want to do the transpacific race or newport to Bermuda.. This movie just is a total inspiration!!
one of the best sailing movie i´ve ever seen... does anyone know if its available translated into spanish?? i would like to show that film to some friends... but they would not understand nearlly anything :-P
Why does the presence of a black guy have to be token? What, African-Americans aren't allowed to go sailing? C'mon, be a man, stand tall, and reveal your real name, ya frickin' bigot.
THIS ACCUALLY WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1.)say the name of the boy/girl u like 2 times 2.)now say the name of your bestfriend 5 times to urself 3.)now post this onto 5 videos and then press f8 and then ur crushes name will appear onthe screen!!!!!!!!!
i watched this movie and was kind of pissed off because pretty much all of the people they picked were from very whealthy familes and they could all afford to get involved in big sailing events like this without anyones help just pisses me off because these days in the sport of sailing skill means absolutly nothing its all about who has the most cash and newest boats...
@killdac i agree, but i personally know one of the guys from this crew, his name is Piet Van Os. his family is definitely wealthy, but he was a skilled waterman/sailor before ever doing this film. I haven't watched this film yet, so I dont know how he was portrayed in this film, but Piet is a true waterman. He knows a lot about the ocean and sailing.
@killdac - don't forget the token black guy. Could they have been more obvious. You're not wrong but there are still people winning without all the fancy gear. I don't think I could have raced with that lot without throwing myself overboard, too many prats.
Hello, anyone know the song in the scene where they finally get out of the dead wind? They lyrics were 'i think this could be the day there's a clear sky overhead clouds are leaving sun is shining' Sounds like Phil Collins riffing off ELO's Mr. Blue Sky
OMG! that movie was amazing! i saw it in newport... in the bathroom the had hairspray and lotion. they had a balcony 2 watch the movie in and everthing. it was awsome!

@memeiminiminx Of course they had to have a black guy in this movie, EVERY press in the world would be on their ass saying they are racist
