Ron MacAnnan was the proud owner of Pursuit, an M-class 82-foot sloop. Both are legendary in Sausalito, California. Ron had a hand in making history on the Sausalito waterfront, and he tells his story with a unique candor that is truly unforgettable. This was the first film in the Life on the Water series — made with no budget, no sponsors, and no donations, filmed aboard Pursuit whenever Ron would have us. Life on the Water is an independent documentary series of portraits of people whose lives have been shaped by the sea.
