A film by Eric & Susan HiscockRunning time: 91 minutes
In the late 1950's, very few "middle class" sailors had taken small sailing craft on long voyages. British Sailors, Eric & Susan Hiscock became pioneers in making long trans-oceanic passages in a small sailboat to what was then quite remote destinations.
