Teen to give up solo sailing dream
I hope Abby changes her mind. October, she can beat that. Perhaps ABC, CBS, MSNBC etc can pool up some millions and give her another shot. One with a decent mast. Even if it doesn't cook a record, a once in a lifetime opportunity... http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2010/0...0 4:b34826062 A 16-year-old California girl who is adrift on her damaged yacht in the Indian Ocean will probably give up on her dream of sailing around the world alone. Jeff Casher, the spokesman for Abby Sunderland's family, said Friday the teen's boat is severely damaged and might be sunk at sea instead of being towed ashore and salvaged. Rescuers are en route to her location and hope to reach her between midnight and 12:30 a.m. PT on Saturday. On Wednesday, Sunderland wrote a blog entry about the rough weather, saying "Wild Eyes was rolling around like crazy" in the huge seas and she triggered her emergency beacons. Searchers aboard a Qantas Airbus A330 spotted the teen's boat and made contact with her via radio about 20 hours later, family spokesman William Bennett said. Sunderland had set sail from Los Angeles County's Marina del Rey on Jan. 23 in an attempt to become the youngest person to sail around the world alone without stopping. Her brother Zac briefly held the record at age 17. Read mo http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2010/0...#ixzz0qfL9u3o4 -- Taxation, modern day slavery. The loss of economic freedom. |

This girl has more on the ball than many 4 times her age. She should go for it. Far too many like de-fumer let life pass them by. Makes them needy, greedy and pathetic actually. This girl will be a winner in any circle. And behaved much better in this circumstance than most pathetic types would. I can see de-fumer for example, panic driven just screw up. My grandparents let me take a power boat out at 7. Teach the kids to be responsible and let them grow with it. Then perhaps maybe they will not just be slugs hanging out at the mall waiting for old ladies to drop a fiver. I can relate to this. She at least needs to get out an sale in the next few weeks, shake it off and continue... -- Taxation, modern day slavery. The loss of economic freedom. |
