when they are sailing a boat like how they raised the sails. And they named some of the parts of the boat, like the mizzen mast and the mizzen boom. I'd like to see other movies that are mildly educational about sailing. Any suggestions.

John's site has been up for a few years. Lotsa good info.
Far as movies go, Ron was good one. "The Dove" is a true story about a young man that sailed the world on a Ranger.
