Personal Best: Chasing the Wind Above and Below the Equator is more than a sailing adventure. It’s the story of one man’s drive to realize his dream. Finally it is time for his dream to be realized. Ed and his wife will sail around the world. Sail with them as they experience the wonders, triumphs, and difficulties of living their dream. Storms, breakdowns, personal loss, and a miraculous escape from drowning in the 2004 Tsunami in Thailand serve as the backdrop to seeing the wonders of the world and meeting the people who are a part of it.
