Jessica, Go for It. As a young 75year old. I wish I had the opportunity when I was your age. But I did race dingy’s all my life. Its such a great feeling when you win.
Keep blogging I look every day. Good Luck. Stephen.
Your a Winner!

But what actually occurs is that costs fall on children and are not morally outweighed by gains to anyone else. ,

Comment on Jessica Watson Gets a Beating Sailing to Sydney by john SEIP

Jessica I’d also like to stress that most if not all personal (not adopted or copied ) opinion is given on the basis of experience, be it zero or minimal .,

To expound ,a person whose family has driven “entry mode” vehicles for decades is not qualified to rant on the driving experience,life expectancy ,service cost or safety of a Foreign alternative & the torrential diatribe pouring over you is largely from that origin . .

Suffice to say “empty vessels make most noise” .

Very good advice ,Also few understand what she says due to her speed of speech , teenage ex school,accent , & subject matter foreign to many.More care in enunciation is essential as people switch off mentally or physically if they do not understand .

But we love your bright expression, enthusiasm & confidence ,fine tuning this is nearly as important as the boat & dilutes the juvenile ‘Child ‘ image so many ignoramuses like to hammer .

Jessica, improve your image by looking into the camera instead of the ‘pose’. The vacant stare irritates viewers because they can’t read your eyes too see who you really are.

Comment on 13-year-old Laura Dekker Denied Sailing Around World by David Martin

Though not a child, a Dutch born woman, Annamarie Dekker, then Anna Woolf, managed as a young woman to sail solo across the Atlantic in her own homemade boat to Britain from South Africa. She had no formal training but was a former athlete and had great motivation.
If she had been any younger, she would most likely have attempted the round world trip. She would be a great person for young Laura Dekker to meet.
