Fifteen young sailors... six months of intense training...
one chance at the brass ring. Morning Light tells the inspiring story of a group of
intrepid and determined young men and women, on the cusp of adulthood, as they
embark on life's first great adventure. Racing a high-performance 52-foot sloop
in the TRANSPAC, the most revered of open-ocean sailing competitions, the crew
of "Morning Light" matches wits and skills in a dramatic 2,300-mile
showdown against top professionals. From their earliest training sessions in Hawaii conducted by
world-class teachers through their test of endurance on the high seas, they
form an unbreakable bond in the process of becoming a singular team that is
greater than the sum of its parts.
