Ben, The life lessons this "little" girl will have when she finishes this voyage will benefit her for an entire lifetime. Nothing wrong with being independent and being able to do things for oneself. I'm sure that her parents would never have allowed her to do this if she wasn't qualified. She must have tremendous sailing skills. Rummy In a message dated 1/26/2010 11:33:38 A.M.

You don't really think it's OK to send a child to sea alone in a quest for...what?...some stupid "record". Maybe we should stock her up with plenty of Mt. Gay? I have real problems with our "celebrity" culture and this case just pushes my buttons for some reason. Don't worry, I'll get over it as soon as the medicine kicks in.
