In 1989, the time had come for the first ever all-female crew to enter the “Whitbread Round the World Race” (renamed now to “Volvo Ocean Race”). The terrors awaiting these bold women went far beyond the sea itself. The true challenge for them was to face institutionalized sexism, the media’s verbal abuse as well as their male counterparts’ taunting, and crushe self-doubt. A challenging journey that unfolds as a metaphor for courage and self-sacrifice.
