This article describes what they did to make it look as real as it did. I think I would have enjoyed it more on the big screen. I watched it on a 37² TV. One of the scenes that stood out was when the boat capsized and Redford is underwater looking up at the upside down cockpit. He swims straight up into the cockpit just as the boat does another 180, and he¹s back in the upright cockpit above water. Ed

I didn't want to turn it off... I found myself asking, "WTF is he doing now?" a lot. found out it was a Cal 39 that he was on. They basically bought and destroyed 3 of them for the movie.

He was on a list of Anarchists, Communists, and other ne¹er do wells. Not a book, but has anyone seen the sailing disaster film, All Is Lost, with Robert Redford? I had high expectations, but was pretty disappointed. Ed From: Paul Fountain <p...@seasource.ca> To: "Richard N.

So I picked up a used paperback copy on ebay. I laid it aside during spring launch and other activities, and came across it a couple of weeks ago. I just finished the book and I am hooked. This was a great read and I couldn't put it down. Since I know little of the northern waters described in the book, I kept my laptop next to me and scoped out all of the places they went, which made it even more enjoyable. So thank you to whomever it was that suggested the book, I am now a Mowat fan! Richard 1985 37 CB, Ohio River, Mile 584; Richard N.
