Second Wind: The Tale of a Sailor

Nautical photographer Onne van der Wal completes a solo restoration of a vintage sailboat.

From the Arctic to the tropics, award-winning Newport-based nautical photographer Onne van der Wal travels the world to capture sailing's most thrilling moments. But it's always been on someone else's boat. Now, van der Wal takes viewers on a different visual journey, returning to his craftsman roots to refit his very own 1972 Pearson 36 in Second Wind: The Tale of a Sailor.

Second Wind: The Tale of a Sailor is a local public television program presented by Rhode Island PBS.
