Abby Sunderland Departs Tomorrow.

Jeff Asbury

Principal Partner
A Little Girl named Abigail is going to sail around the World, Alone!

http://abbysunderland.com

Abigail (“Abby”) Sunderland turned sixteen in October 2009. To the outward observer, she is a seemingly cleancut, All-American girl…the second of seven children. But inside of Abby, a passion burns. Since becoming a teenager, she has had her sights set on making history as the youngest person, male or female, to circumnavigate the world. Not only does she plan to accomplish this feat alone and unassisted, she plans to do it without once taking refuge on land. Aboard an Open 40 racing sailboat, Abby will embark on her voyage in January 2010 from Marina del Rey, California. By June 2010, Abby plans to have made history.

DEPARTURE DATE IS SET!*After years of dreaming and months of hard work, prayer and perseverance Abby's weather router has given the go ahead for Abby to depart on her round the world sail. Abby is set to leave this Saturday January 23, 2010 from the Del Rey Yacht Club (ww.dryc.org) located at 13900 Palawan Way, Marina Del Rey, CA 90292 (Map). Abby will be hosting a press conference and Q&A session at 9:30am and departure is set for 11am. We hope to see everyone there.

I wish her the very best !

If her boat is up to it she will probably make it a race to the finish with Jessica.

Jessica is doing really well after her inauspicious start and the missteps of her handlers. Rounding the Horn is certainly something I could only dream of.
