Default 14-year-old set to become youngest person to sail solo across the Atlantic

It doesn't say much for the quality of the rigging if a halyard chaffed thru in 2 weeks.

I thought it said cap shroud when I read it. That's standing rigging. Halyards are
running rigging. But it's worse having the standing rigging so flimsy it breaks that soon.

Cheers,
