When I first heard the story break, I knew the Iranian boats would be smaller than the US boats, but I didn't realize it would basically be Ghorab and Sameer cruising around in the family boat. They truly were lucky.
Also, the wake of the boat from which the filming takes place is huge, looks wider than the cruise boats I've been on. Seeing the film reminds me of my fantasies where I go back in time with one of these warships and take on some Athenian triremes.
