Roy E. Disney, Conceiver, Producer, Executive Producer about the movie ~ "We're
not making a film about sailboat racing and we're not making a film about a boat.
It's a story about a group of young adults sailing across an ocean, the obstacles
they encounter and the bonds they form. It's a story about becoming more than
the sum of the parts."
