this must be one of those magazines at check out counters...like old national enquirer only more full of crap...these sailors trying to fulfill a dream...didnt work this time but hope they get it together and try again...any magazine that would print this misinformed nonsence is junk..as for the author needs to be mentally examined..her comparisons and views are nuts...this is example of what is what is wrong with a lot of north americans myely mouthed uninformed know it alls...some of main line tv press hardly any better in regard to their reports,however she takes the cake ..i started sailing at nine years old mostly on my own, but boat supplied by grandfather was like a rainbow class sloop,old ,cotton sails,was wooden hull,some serious leaks at first of season..but sailing by myself in adirondacs in nystate to me was a great offshore adventure...my children had some advantage as 5&.8 yr olds we had modern knarr class 31ft sloop that spent most summers aboard cruising &racing lower great lakes...they handled it themselves &as far as i know,few real problems...things seem to work out for kids...are today well balanced sucessful adults ...60 plus years later i have survived....
