Description: Once labeled a "youth-at-risk," Matt Rutherford risks it all to be the first person to sail alone, nonstop around North and South America.
Red Dot on the Ocean: The Matt Rutherford Story – Trailer from SailFlix on Vimeo .
“Red Dot on the Ocean portrays the story as triumph over adversity and wayward youth….we learn that he spent part of his childhood in a cult and struggled with ADHD. That condition may have led him to — and helped him thrive in–the adrenaline highs of sailing…. plays like an upbeat, real-life “All Is Lost,” as Mr. Rutherford, with relatively simple sailing equipment, contends with setbacks and the elements.”
