Can the journey be as rewarding as the destination if an athlete's dream of competing on the world's stage falls short? These are a few of the themes that Uncharted Waters, a documentary following athletes on the US Sailing Team Sperry, will explore in the final year of their journey toward a spot on the team that will compete against the world's best in August. The full film will launch online at http://uncharted.sunbrella.com/ and here on Sailing World's website on July 4th. In the meantime, check out the preview for the documentary.
