Documentary Sense the Wind tells the extraordinary story of four blind racing sailors and their battles to make the finals of the Blind Sailing World Championships in Japan.  Mike McDowall talks to one of those sailors - Matt Chao - and to director Christine Knowlton about this remarkable four-year film project.  Hear Matt crush political correctness, laugh in the face of adversity and explain his desire to fly a plane.  Plus, of course, learn how a blind sailor really does 'sense the wind'.This interview is absolutely bloody marvellous.  Matt and Christine were wonderful guests and we’re constantly looking for excuses to have them on again.You’ll find more information about them at http://www.sensethewind.com/This interview was first broadcast back in July 2016
