Zac is a FAILURE just like I always said . . .
 
The Guinness Book of Records does not recognize Zac Sunderland's
circumnavigation because he had too much outside help. Bwaahahahhahahaha.

I told you so.


"The previous youngest to complete a similar voyage was American Zac
Sunderland last month, but his effort is not recognized by Guinness World
Records."

That kid has already done more in his young life than you have done

Your reputation might improve if you tried a little harder to be
truthful. It doesn't say Sunderland had too much help. And why would it?
Perham's father apparently followed him around the globe in another
boat. Zac was more on his own than Perham.

I think you will that was his 1st Atlantic crossing some years ago, not
the circumnavigation
I reckon both lads deserve recognition, no mean achievement for either
young man to complete

well done to both of them

I really dont think his goal was to get into "the book".

He set out to single handedly circumnavigate the world by sailboat,
and that he did.

Wrong! His stated goal was to be the youngest person to sail alone around
the world.

He failed miserable as he did not sail alone around the world. He had help
with tows into and out of various ports. He used the Panama Canal which is
not sailing. He had all sorts of people constantly working on his boat. He
dilly-dallied around for months at a time and had a birthday en route while
workmen refitted his boat time after time. Fail, fail, fail. The entire
journey was an embarrassment to us real sailors.

Sailing alone around the world involves the three great capes - Leeuwin,
Good Hope, Horn. Using the Panama Canal or the Suez canal is not a
circumnavigation. That alone makes a travesty out of it.

It's time we sailors started to face the facts that our pride and joy is
being *******ized by publicity hound parents who live vicariously through
their brats. Even worse is those arm chair sailors who seem to approve of
and support this trash sailing.
