The World's Fastest Sailboats team embarks on a global race, facing diverse weather conditions. The Kingfisher 2, captained by Ellen MacArthur, starts strong but struggles in the Doldrums due to low winds. Using a barometer, they navigate through, only to face colder climates and icebergs near the South Pole. Despite making up lost time, a storm breaks the mast, forcing them to abandon the race, highlighting the weather's power.
