Documentary MAIDEN Playing at the Glasgow Film Festival on Feb 25-26 /<image009.jpg>
Inspirational Story of the first ever all-female crew to enter the Whitbread
Round the World Race
MAIDEN is the inspirational story of how Tracy Edwards, a 24-year-old cook
on charter boats, became the skipper of the first ever
all-female crew to enter the Whitbread Round the World Race in 1989. Tracy’s
dream was opposed on all sides: her male competitors
thought an all-women crew would never make it, the chauvinistic yachting
press took bets on her failure, and potential sponsors rejected
her, fearing they would die at sea and generate bad publicity.
But Tracy refused to give up: she re-mortgaged her home and bought a
second-hand boat, putting everything on the line to ensure the
team made it to the start line. With the support of her remarkable crew she
went on to shock the sport and prove that women are the equal of men.
