Join us at the Panida for this is the annual fundraiser for the Sandpoint Sailing Association where they will be showing The Loneliest Race. All proceeds go toward supporting SSA’s mission: To provide, facilitate, sponsor, and organize recreational boating activities for members and the general public; To provide educational resources for youth and adults. And to promote safety and competence during water-related functions. Donations are encouraged in lieu of tickets, there will be a raffle, silent auction and door prizes.

Set against the backdrop of the world's most punishing seas, The Loneliest Race is an intimate documentary that delves into the emotional and physical trials of sixteen sailors in the Golden Globe Race. This non-stop, 50,000 km solo sailing race is the world’s longest and most mentally grueling sporting event, pushing competitors to the limit with no fuel, no technology, and complete isolation. Only six sailors have ever successfully completed the GGR.Starting and finishing in France, they navigate the Atlantic, Indian, Pacific, and Southern Oceans with nine months' worth of food, rainwater for drinking, and only the stars for navigation. Mostly amateur sailors, the documentary gets intimate access to participants, including Kirsten Neuschäfer, the race’s sole woman, who has navigated the Southern Ocean countless times; Abhilash Tomy, a former Indian Naval Commander who nearly lost his life in the 2018 race; and Ian Herbert-Jones, a sailing hobbyist who ends up risking his life in pursuit of a personal dream. The skippers must rely on ingenuity and luck to survive 300 days adrift at sea — alone.
