I gather that she made a seven week solo passage when she was 11, having lived aboard her parents boat, during a circumnavigation, as a little girl.
And I heard the sixteen year old English boy who is about to become the "youngest circumnavigator yet" interviewed on BBC Radio yesterday; he seems to think she would be up to it.
I think they both know much more about it than I do - I'd say let her get on with it.
