you have someone in Australia?
More interested in who I
could be sailing towards, mate.
Hey, who's the lady in
the picture down below?
Now that is the original Rose
Noelle, Tahitian princess.
I named the boat after
her. Love of my life.
Do you still love her?
In spirit.
We're going a bit fast,
John? Don't you think?
I mean, we're not in that
much of a bloody hurry, are we?
Well, I want to get as far
as we can before nightfall.
- But why?
- Well, the weather's changing.
The weather's changing? What
do you mean? What's it doing?
Well, there's a storm coming.
It'll be on us pretty soon. And
then we'll do some real sailing.
(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)
JOHN (V.O.):
A littleknowledge is a dangerous thing.
I don't like this. I
really don't like this.
JOHN (V.O.):
Phil had limitedcoastal sailing experience.
Maybe that's why he was so
anxious. His fear was contagious.
How long's this going to last?
What's the big surprise?
If you guys heard the marine forecast,
you would've known about this.
This storm's gonna blow us all
the way to Tonga in no time.
You sailed us into a storm on purpose?
Get us... come on! Get
on the radio now! F***...
Call the Coast Guard. Get us a helicopter.
Get us off. Hello? Is the Coast Guard...
Hey, hey, hey! That radio's short-range.
There's no one out here to hear you.
- Why?
- Why what?
Why is it short range?
Because I don't have a license.
Why not?
'Cause I don't believe in them,
and I don't want to waste the money.
When you're out here, you're out
here. That's the journey you're on.
F*** you, mate! We're gonna flip!
Look, we're not gonna
flip. This yacht can't flip.
I've sailed 40,000 miles in one of
these. This is just another blow.
- And when was that, 20 years ago?
- Yeah.
I built this baby with my own hands,
we've already crossed the Tasman together.
You're safe, Rick. Relax.
Oh, God.
What about a sea anchor?
You got one of those?
What for?
Well, to stop us bouncing
round while we ride it out.
Yeah.
Have you got one?
Of course, I have...
Well, then let's throw it
out, slow us down a bit.
No way, it's brand new.
It cost me a lot of money.
- For Christ's sakes.
- The wind turn and goes.
- Let's take take a vote.
- Yeah.
It's not a bloody democracy, mate.
Hey, f*** you! Where is it?
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
Okay, throw us the bag!
Okay, hold onto the bag!
- Use this rope!
- Got it!
Ready?
Now!
(MUSIC CONTINUES)
JOHN (V.O.):
If I made onebig mistake, this was it...
allowing myself to be bulldozed
by a terrified crew...
with no experience of
blue water sailing.
The noise of waves smashing against
a multihull is like gunfire.
