Favorite sailing movies?

Besides Capt. Ron, what other good sailing movies are out there?

I loved "White Squall" not a fan of "Summer Rental" which I was told had some good sailing.

"Wind" is good if you mute it.

Other than that, I'd love to know what everyone else thinks...

Dead Calm with a very young Nicole isn't a bad movie. White Squall was a very good sailing movie. Also the movie Four Seasons has some fun, sailing scenes in it.

Wind.

Summer Rental is a great movie because of John Candy and the comedy of it all.

Ahhhh . . . "Skullies catches of the day"
