Just rented Deep Water from Nexflix, a 2006 documentary on the 1968-69
Golden Globe race, the competitors in which were attempting the first
single-handed circumnavigation. Focusing mostly on the mental
disintegration of Donald Crowhurst, the movie features a good deal of
footage taken at sea by the competitors, and interviews with many of
the sailors / wives (including Mme. Moitessier).

Two thumbs up.

And my, how ocean racing has changed in the last 40 years...!
