This time he is planning to win the world's longest and most challenging yacht race - from San Francisco to Japan via the BeringSea, through some of the roughest and most unpredictable seas imaginable. His craft is the Victory, a $75 million racing yacht navigated entirely by computer.

 Wyman desperately needs to win because unknown to others, his business empire is crumbling, his assets dwindling,and only a triumph like this can save his reputation. Not even his girlfriend realizes the lengths to which he'll go - though meanwhile he must outwit an insidious range of enemies intent on making this his last voyage ever.
