Maiden Single-Handed Voyage !

I have to say as a father and a sailor, yesterday was a very proud moment. My 6 year old daughter came home from sailing camp and told me she sailed an Optimist pram by herself for the first time. I asked her if she liked sailing and she said no Dad, I love it!

Warms the heart.

Hopefully you won't send her around the world when she is 12 or so.

Yes, please be a responsible parent and wait until she is 14.
