The Junk - Adventure of the Tai Ki: narrated by Joss Ackland At the most distant point from land anywhere in the world - in the North Pacific-a Chinese river junk met disaster. It had been built in Hong Kong to an ancient pattern to try to prove that the Chinese of 2,000 years ago could have reached South America.
From the beginning there had been problems. The international crew of eight were mostly inexperienced. Could they ever work as a team? They almost made it, but disaster was to come.
