Close to the wind : [an extraordinary story of triumph over adversisty]
An avid sailor describes his life-long love affair with the sea and with sailing, his participation in a solo round-the-world race, the hardships and disasters that followed, and his epic battle to rescue a fellow competitor whose boat sank and still complete the race.
"During the 1996-97 Vendée Globe single-handed round-the-world yacht race, Pete Goss foregoes his own chance to win in order to rescue competitor Raphael Dinelli despite the fact that Dinelli is 160 miles away, Goss's own boat is damaged, and he must cross through a hurricane. Against all odds, Goss manages to complete both the rescue and the race."
