Archipelago Raid to be broadcast worldwide starting on BBC World

The Archipelago Raid, the 5-day extreme sailing survival marathon through the Scandinavian islands is coming to TV homes, hotels and airlines worldwide. The international viewing will start on the 1st/2nd September 2007 when the 24-minute film ŒArchipelago Raidı will be aired on BBC World.

The film charts the gruelling event as the 29 world-class teams from 13 nations navigate their way through one of the worldıs most unique landscapes. The 2 man crews, sailing volatile high performance catamarans were followed as they faced the challenges of racing 400 miles ­ by day and night ­ around some of the most breathtaking but unpredictable landscapes in the world. The result is a tale of endurance and stamina played out against a backdrop of beautiful, but threatening islands and rocks. Itıs hard enough to complete the course without collapsing from exhaustion but winning is a very special achievement.
