From the back cover

Since the first sailing ships cast off in search of fortune and knowledge, the imaginations of countless generations have been fired by the idea of sea voyages to foreign lands. In Exploring Under Sail, viewers travel with a group of global adventurers who combine the tradition of sailing with the latest in high technology to explore the remote corners of the world.

Hit by a Hurricane
Paul and Sheryl Shard voyage down the Inland Waterway from Lake Ontario to Florida. But their quiet cruise quickly turns into a heart-pounding adventure as they run for shelter from an approaching hurricane. En route, they assist in the rescue of a sinking trimaran and later survive a direct hit from the hurricane while other boats around them are destroyed. A unique look at a hurricane--the most powerful force in nature.

Reef Sharks of the Bahamas
Exploring the beautiful islands of the Bahamas, Paul and Sheryl Shard explore a remote blue hole, sail to an island populated only by giant iguanas, and meet a woman raising her family on her own desert island. Investigating the reef life in these enchanted isles, the Shards swim with a group of large eagle rays and dive in the middle of a school of more than a dozen large grey tip reef sharks.
