It's a journey that is exciting. The arrival will be at the launching.

First script: PG rated. The cat tacks out of the harbour through the gently lapping waves and the disappearance over the horizon into the setting sun.

The directors cut: XXX rated. The boat rises onto one hull, caught by a sudden gust of wind when the oversize main sheet sticks in the pulley. The main stay snaps and during the cartwheeling that follows, the skipper is impaled on the unfastened spinnaker pole. His mate, out on the trapeze during all this, plunges to his watery grave dragged down by the weight of additional hull fillets and is snapped in two up by a passing giant octopus's razor sharp, horny beak.

All of course recorded in high definition video and and supported by a mix of flash backs to the construction, seemingly minor errors, pointing to the placement the wrong cleat in the wrong location and UPSIDE DOWN, cascading into his family slumping into the sand.
