29-Year-Old to Become 1st US Woman to Solo Sail Around World 

Way to go girl!!!!

I would not even get on a puddle boat 🛶 She is a brave girl

Cole is rocking it.. So close to the finish and so much to keep on top of... She is an amazing role model. I am so looking for watching her finish and keeping my fingers crossed that she signs up for a Vendee Globe.

OMG Congradulations! I'm a short person too!

There’s literally no advantage to being tall and a sailor. None. Whoever said this girl was too short to be a sailor was just a hater looking to put a determined mind down.

Let's go. Girl. The one

She’s badass! Congrats to her!

Wow, she is amazing. I could not get close to doing what she has done.

Queen of the pirates

Abby Sunderland attempted to become the youngest person to sail around the world back in 2010. She almost made it. She started out sailing from Marina del Rey in California, sailed around South America, did repairs to her boat in Cape Town, South Africa, but had to be rescued in the Indian Ocean west of Australia. Her brother Zac sailed around the globe back in 2009 ending his voyage in Marina del Rey's harbor to a great turn out of people. I was there too. The Sunderlands were a family deep into sailing and boats.

I would never. Apparently she's a lot braver than I am.

Awesome ‼️👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow I'm impressed. That's awesome

She is ABSOLUTELY inspiring other women!! Really refreshing to hear some good news for women for once

Congratulations to this brave woman!! She made history!!

Congratulations girl❤❤❤

Wow! She is a strong and brave woman for doing this. She was the only woman out of the group to do this! Congrats to her!

very lucky and proud

Amazing solo adventure!!!!

Cole is AMAZING!

Now this is iconic!!!

How do you get Medical care in the water?

Braba 💪 Parabéns, Cole. Feliz Dia da Mulher! Saudações do Brasil 🥰🇧🇷

Just glad she survived the journey.

She did it!

Sail on sail on!!!!!

Good for her.

Brava!

@0:43 oh wow that was extreme! I wish she was ok tho!

What does height have anything to do with sailing? Congrats!

Damn how long did that take way to go 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Being short is an asset on a yacht

She is not human.😂😂😂Big congrats. This is accomplishment is out of this world

I could never …. I’d be too chicken

Now that is brave

Jamie Watson in Australia did it at 16, which is crazy, about time we got an American female to do it!

Wow

Sounds like a fun adventure minus the rogue waves, IVs, and almost capsizing.

🌻🌷🏵⚘🌹🥀🌺

Who knew Solo Sailers needed to wear helmets and padding to bed. That was one strong rogue wave.

R.I.P TAKEOFF

Damn there's a height limit just to sail around the world what a dumb rule

she didnt even move 10km

Reminds me of Amelia Earhart. Congrats🎉

Terrifying - noo wayy

The first man did this in 1898 LMAO but yas kween go off😂

Sailing solo around the world must be the most dangerous thing you can do..

Hope she doesn’t crash along the way.

MOANAA WHO AGREES? 👇

“Feisty”= Someone who ignores advice that they can’t do something.

Did she not hear about amelia

They sailed across the ocean

i bet she cant beat me in fortnite

Shows you what you can do with just a few million dollars backing you.😂😂

Counting chicken a LITTLE early!!!!

Something a man did already years ago. You always treat women unequally

SCREW SEAT BELTS!!!

I respect her desire for travel and adventure, but in my opinion it's a bad idea for her to be doing that alone, and I didn't say that just because of her gender. A guy shouldn't do that all by himself either. A mechanic who could repair boat engines would've been good to bring along incase the boat suffered a serious malfunction. Someone with enough medical knowledge such as a doctor or nurse joining her would've been a good idea seeing she almost got dehydrated, and one of her closest friends could've joined her for emotional support. If I knew her personally I would've reccomended she bring those 3 others prior to sailing off on that voyage.

A rich girl sails a boat. Great.

chess

Ok....and this means what? Being on a boat for weeks....why pn earth is this an accomplishment? Stuck on a tiny boat rocking up and down side to side...yrahhhh no thanks

First black guy

She should of had her seat belt on ....ya know like wearing safety glasses before losing an eye

Amelia Earhart 2.0 Nah, just kidding

To be honest - not that impressive, yet typical of the American News Media to hype up every story. In the last 20 years there have been many yachtswomen from several countries who have solo sailed non-stop around the world (most of them unsupported by international race organisers), including a 14 year old and a 16 year old. The very first solo circumnavigation (by any sailor) was by Sir Francis Chichester at the age of 65 - he was greeted on the dockside at Greenwich UK by HRH Queen Elizabeth II and knighted there for his endeavour.

🤣🤣🤣

Looks like a man Doesn't count 😊

Unless I win a billion dollars, I don't see the point. This is way too dangerous, giving yourself an IV 😩

First american woman but at least the fourth woman. and no where near the youngest!

I hate that inside edition turned this into a gender issue.

Why would you want to inspire someone to go out to sea where no one will find you

Flat Earthers say what....

This isn’t that great of an achievement really. There just boasting this story….

Congrats on possibly being the 300th person who isnt a male to do this. 😂

Whoooooooo caresss

Congrats to doing something that Men have been doing for eons. 😂

You know what you call this? Single

Why does everyone who do this kind of stuff look like gretta tunberg
