How much sailing?
I am looking forward to seeing Maidentrip when it gets to Seattle later this month. I was wondering, though, how much sailing is actually in the movie. Did Dekker ever fly a trysail? Did she ever practice celestial navigation? Go aloft?
I saw a story that indicates that Dekker has problems with some of director Schlesinger's moviemaking choices: http://www.wavetrain.net/news-a-views/453-laura-dekker-dissing-her-own -movie.
Notwithstanding, I'm sure I will enjoy this film.
Separately, does anyone know when Dekker's book -- Ein Mädchen, ein Traum: Solo um die Welt -- will be published in English translation?
