Video review: 'Maiden' sets sail
September 27, 2019 at 12:30PM
Minnesotans love their boats, and love being on the water. The inspiring documentary "Maiden" (⋆⋆⋆) has plenty of both. Tracy Edwards went looking for a job in yachting and was hired — as a cook. She realized there were only a few other women working on boats, mostly in secondary roles. So she rounded up a bunch of them, bought a used sailboat and entered the first all-female crew in the prestigious Whitbread Round the World Race. The arduous endeavor takes nearly a year and requires skill, determination and bravery.
