Did anyone catch SOLO on ABC last night?

If you didn't, I highly recommend watching it.  It's a very moving documentary about a man's attempt to Kayak from Australia to New Zealand.  It's 1600km and takes about a month!

I couldn't understand why or how anyone can be insane enough to even consider it.  But the documentary does very well in explaining the mindset, thoughts and insights of these "extreme adventurers".  Puts into perspective the beauty and unforgiving enivornment that is the open ocean.
