Currently watching on Netflix the doco. "Maiden" 1989 Whitbread .g
Worth a watch with quite a few lessons for would be skippers .
Yes, a great story and very well told. Guts is guts no matter what gender body it comes packaged in.
Check out the Race to Alaska doco
4 young dudes on a Olsen 30 racing 700 miles to Alaska
Making it fun again
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?
Watched it on either Prime or Netflix last night
just can't remember which one but will check
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
Richard

Definitely on Netflix as of now.
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.

Look for:- R2AK.
Good luck...
Nup, not on Netflix but looks like it's on Amazon (which I don't have). Oh well....
Thanks for suggesting "Maiden" -very inspiring movie! Another good sailing film is currently streaming on SBS- "Turning Tide" based on the Vendee Globe Race
