Looking for a good Blu-Ray sailing video?

I picked up a new Blu-ray on Ebay for $5 shipped. Was looking for a HD sailing video and found a Disney documentary called Morning Light. It's about a rookie crew sailing in the Transpac on a TP52 from Long Beach to Diamond Head. Great Cinematography especially watching through my Epson HD projector on a 8 foot screen. You may want to check it out to get you through these cold winter days.

Sailboat porn on an 8 foot screen? Dayum!

Yes. I guess bigger is better It's funny that the HD projector is seldom considered since people think they need a dedicated room for it. I have a 42" plazma for most of my viewing but have my projector setup in my little 14 x 16 living room with a ceiling mounted retractable screen. Turns my living room into an instant theater. Only down side is it needs to be nighttime.

I also liked Morning Light. If only the winds were a bit heavier during the Transpac. I think it is a good motivational movie for young adults/teens. On the other hand, "Alone" was depressingly an anti-motivator, if there is such a word. I did came across a feel good sailing movie earlier this week. One of the better that I have viewed. The title is "Turning Tide" (Vendee Globe) Unfortunately it is not available on US Netflix but is available in other countries. Although it is sub-titled the dialogue is simple enough to easily follow.

Nice setup, thinking along those lines to install an Epson projector and screen in my den.
