What, then, possessed 3 young women to become the first female team to seakayak the 850 miles around this windswepped Australian island?In this warts-and-all documentary, award winning adventure filmmaker Justine Curgenven gives a real insight into the highs and lows of a challenging expedition. You feel like you are there in the kayak as the girls battle through 3-storey high swells on the exposed southwest coast and heave their 100 kilo kayaks over drying-out sandbanks. They resort to 4am starts to try to beat the constant headwinds but still they endure the heartache of turning back against a gale force storm.
