Synopsis

A 48-year-old Chinese man realised his sailing dream. Guo Chuan completed a solo, non-stop voyage, circumnavigating the world in 137 days becoming the first man in history to achieve in the aim in a Class 40 boat. Finishing the Round-the-World Volto Ocean Race and single-handedly crossing Atlantic Ocean gave Guo Chuan a heightened sense of spirituality, while the experience and skills he acquired took him all the way from the start of the voyage through the finish line. Guo suffered hardship and loneliness during his solo circumnavigation of the world, but he accomplished the extreme challenge thanks to his faith and determination without boundaries.
