5 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 11 years ago - ★★★★ - 4 ratingsThe Extreme Sailing Series is an international inshore racing circuit bringing together the best skippers on the planet - from Olympic medalists to round-the-world record holders - competing against each other in state of the art 40-foot catamarans.
