Cloud Nine Sails North West Passage - now the DVD

9:10 PM Fri 5 Dec 2008 GMT

'Arctic Journey for the Cloud Nine' .

During the summer of 2007, the sailing vessel Cloud Nine completed the transit of the fabled North West Passage, an amazing 6640 miles in 73 days. Now there's a film and a DVD available on the journy, all of which has been photographed by committed environmentalist photographer David Thoreson.

The film traces the 2007 successful sailing adventure through the Arctic's Northwest Passage aboard Roger Swanson's ketch, Cloud Nine. While telling the current story, the film/book also look back on the 1994 attempt, some history of exploration and how the Arctic is changing rapidly due to climate change.
