we take 10 male windsurfers and dump them on an island with Cagla Kubat and jennifer hawkins.
they have no gear or food.
on the other side of the island is a reef containing broken boats/parts and equipement.
the windsurfers must travel across the island and scavenge parts to build their own windsurfers and rigs. in the middle of the island are the hostile kiters that always try to snake the windsurfers.
once completing the built gear the windsurfers must then travel back through the middle of the island to a reef break at the main camp where they must sail their gear and perform manoeuvres each day.
each night, all contestants must attend the "tribal council" made up of Jim drake, robby naish and jason polakow. at tribal council the days performances will be judged and the loosing contestant evicted. after tribal council a "party" will be had where contestants can win immunity by winning the heart of either Cagla or Jennifer.
now for the clever bit.......and almost a show within a show.
the first 6 weeks of the movie will consist of the judges travelling around the world interviewing and filming local sailors vying to be in the script.
Also i'd be available for any consultancy work on set

we take 50 male windsurfers and dump them on an island with Cagla Kubat and jennifer hawkins and all the windsurfiing gear you could imagine.
the end.
I think it's a fun and brilliant idea Gesty, except being realistic you need equal numbers of male and female windsurfers. Go for it!
