Sailing around the world alone is a daunting challenge that requires seamanship, courage, and self-reliance. The Around Alone 1998-99 Race saw 16 sailors embark on an 8-month journey, covering 27,000 miles, battling hurricane-force winds, loneliness, and frustration. The sailors faced numerous challenges, including a Russian sailor performing surgery on himself and a skipper losing her boat after capsizing near Cape Horn, only to be rescued by a fellow competitor.
