A film by Gene and Josie Evans
Completed in 1976, this is Part 1 of a two part sailing documentary shot in 16mm color film by noted Hollywood cinematographer, Gene Evans - cameraman for "Roots" the miniseries, and feature films including "Jeremiah Johnson," and "Lady Sings the Blues". The film has been restored and converted to HD video.
600 Days Pt. 1: To Cocos Island
Part 1 takes us from San Diego, south down the coastlines of Baja California, Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica with many stops along the way.
It's a relaxing sail back in time before the onset of drug violence and civil wars. In Costa Rica, the couple's son, Ron, joins them for the offshore passage to the mysterious and uninhabited Cocos Island.
