Don Street Antigua Race Week 1985 Preview From Don Street Antigua Race Week 1985 Preview. A film by Charles Croft. A one hour award-winning documentary which lets you share the intense sailing action aboard Don Street’s 80 year old, 44 foot, engineless yawl, “Iolaire” during Antigua Sailing Week, 1985, Iolarie’s final appearance in one of the world’s top sailing events. In 1985, “Iolaire” was 80 years old having been built in 1905. Don had sailed and raced her throughout the Caribbean for forty years while he developed the famous Imray-Iolair charts and the first comprehensive cruising guides that opened up the Caribbean to modern sailors. Antigua Sailing Week races became an annual event for Street and Iolaire since the first regatta in 1967. In 1985, Street decided to retire Iolaire from racing and they both went out in style, finishing only 5 points out of first place at race week’s end. This award-winning documentary shows you what Caribbean racing was like in its golden years when the skippers all new each other and racing was fun, not business.

A film by Jack & Jude Binder Returning to Tasmania a couple years after their first voyage, Jack & Jude take their "Green Machine" kayak up rivers few explore. In World Heritage Port Davey, they paddle through an exquisite gorge. Next, they trek overland to the far south coast of Tasmania, where they explore off track, again in perfect photographic conditions. Taking Banyandah across the shallow Old River Bar, Jack & Jude kayak up river to locate a last stand of mature Huon Pines, and search for the lonely grave site of Critchley Parker, an ill equipped dreamer. Departing the Old River, they sail Banyandah south under Tasmania's Maatsuyker, braving a spunky fresh gale to reach safety in Recherché Bay on Tasmania’s East Coast. About Jack & Jude Two veteran Australian sailors return to the sea following a 15-year refit of their self-built Ferro cement ketch, "Banyandah" (aboriginal word meaning “home on the water”) which had carried them and their two sons around the world.
