A Long Way in a Small Boat
I don't know how much information has been posted about this documentary, so I hope I'm not going to bore anyone.
I saw the video at the SeaCraft distributor's display at the Los Angeles boat show about 1974, not long after I bought my SF20. As I recall, it was two 23s, a Tsunami and a SF. The trip started in San Felipe, Baja California, Mexico, from where they travelled south along the west coast of the Gulf of California. I don't recall the southern destination but on the trip they encountered some pretty rough water.
As in other Bruce Brown documentaries ("Endless Summer" about surfing, and "On Any Sunday" about off road motorcycling) I'd say it was well done, and included some humor ... at least during the launching. I certainly would like to see it again.
