Jessica Watson, the sixteen year old Australian on a solo world sail, has crossed the equator and making good progress:
“… The determined Sunshine Coast 16-year-old, aiming to be the youngest sailor to circumnavigate the globe, called her land-based team of supporters to confirm she officially crossed the Equator at 7.17am on Thursday.
She immediately followed nautical tradition, dunking herself in ocean water as a celebration “baptism”.”
