A movie about sailing


Recommended Posts

Here's a question ( haven't watched either of those yet)

 

Who can tell me the name of a movie I must have seen in ooo say ,the '80's filmed in sort of the style of "The Gods must be Crazy" but more doco too. It was about a mixed crew in a boat cruising the Pacific, something like an old baltic trader or a schooner.

One part I recall was them stopping at Palmyra or other WWII base, and taking a diesel engine for the boat.Any ideas on the name?

The best sailing movie I've seen would be Deep Water, very sad doco. But most are absolute garbage, that thing with Robert Redford was so awful I couldn't watch it properly I had to keep fast forwarding it. Do farmers have the same problem? When they see an actor using a tractor in the wrong manner or builders must see stuff on tv all the time that is blatantly bad, unsafe, or plainly physically impossible.
