This was a disappointment. It is amazing that it was compared favorably by some reviewers here and on other sites with Master and Commander - there is absolutely no comparison. I had hoped it would at least be to sailing what Caddy Shack is to golfing; didn't happen. Weak plot, pathetic script, "me-centered" teens expecting the world to revolve around them while struggling to become reprobate, improbable (impossible) plot shifts. The 2 stars are for sailing in beautiful waters. It is hard to understand that when so many positive elements were there - budget (obviously), talented actors, nice looking boat, great locale, that Hollywood cannot pull together a script and plot. I almost purchased it, glad I only rented on it Amazon Prime and saved $4.
