Way back when she started I predicted she'd fail. She's already failed with
the non-stop part and now it looks like she's failed altogether.

Two manual EPIRBS activated. The one on her boat that water releases not
broadcasting. I would suspect she capsized, probably got dismasted. Hope she
survived it. It was a foolish attempt in the first place. A stunt that any
responsible parents would have disallowed. Too much boat for an amateur,
inexperienced, little girl
