With other, even younger young women starting out recently to be the "youngest woman to circumnavigate" we may tend to overlook Jessica.

Abby was born in Oct 1993 and Jessica in March.

But Jessica aged "ten years" last night when her boat went turtle in the south Atlantic. What a boat! in that it only got a bent solar panel support. Mast and all electronics still are functioning. EPRIB went off!

Go Jessica.....

(On edit... correction...... "youngest person to circumnavigate", male or female) Wow, what are the boys going to do? Will this end up by setting off an infant in a car seat with an iv implanted and an automatic bottom-washer, all steered by autopilot?

before I wax polemic

Isnt that a summer thing?? Hurts a lot, too, Im told.

>>My girls (age 12x2) are having a great time following her on the web, but I think wnw hit it on the head - you cant put this up against those who work to give to others at such an early age.

For those that are watching, she's almost done it!

Hull of a little Lady, Hull of a sailor, but the fat lady hasn't sung Yet Still and all I wish her the best.

Ruth and I check in on her almost every day. I'm critical of someone that young undertaking something like this, but we are in total awe of what she has accomplished. Quite remarkable,

Sum and Ruth
