A thriller for sailing lovers
10 August 1998 | by (Sao Paulo, Brazil) – See all my reviews

It's a great movie for those who like and enjoy sailing. The nautical vocabulary is used but there's nothing too complicated about it. It's filled with beautiful images of sailing boats and of the America's Cup. Check on it and I doubt you'll regret.
