Another fantastic sailing movie

I've previously posted about "Hold Fast", one of my favorite sailing movies of all time. Well, it's time to add another much anticipated release to the list! I followed Nick Jaffe's trip across the Atlantic and the Pacific through his website BigOceans, and actually learned a lot in the process. Now Jack Rath has made a documentary called "Between Home", which you can download here, from Nick's footage before and during his passages. I watched it the other night and I loved it. I thought it was honest and beautifully shot, and really those were the two things I was looking for. It's not prettified and it's not what I would call a happy ending, or a happy anything, really, movie. It was true to the sense I've gotten from reading the writings of and chatting with other people who've pulled off similar things. Highly recommended!
