So much more than a documentary about boats

This is a story about people, hundreds of participants over a five year period, from acclaimed National Geographic Adventurers to everyday people with little boating experience. People discovering grit and perseverance far beyond anything they had anticipated or experienced. Terrabytes of footage from Go-pro's, cell phones and professional gear was collected from widely scattered boats with little or no cell service and collated daily during he race. This was skillfully edited and combined with a minimal amount of "talking heads" to create an exciting, funny and awesomely beautiful story of journeys through some of the most remote territory on earth.
