Their triumph—perhaps even their survival—owes itself to their astonishing commitment to teamwork: an alchemy of cooperation, trust, planning, and execution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race is among the most demanding sailing competitions in the world. Unpredictable seas make the approximately 630-nautical-mile course grueling under the best conditions, but the 1998 race proved to be the most perilous to date when a sudden and violent storm struck. Six sailors perished and another 55 were saved in what became the largest search and rescue operation in Australia's history. But even while bigger, better-equipped yachts attempted to maneuver around the storm, Ed Psaltis and his crew on the AFR Midnight Rambler made the daring decision to head directly into its path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAuthor Dennis N.T.
