If you can't stand the wet ...

... then stay out of the ocean:

THE mother of rescued American teenage sailor Abby Sunderland has said the family cannot afford to reimburse the Australian Government for the cost of saving her daughter which could top $300,000.

The mother claims they're not wealthy people.

I beg to differ. Offshore sailing is not a poor mans' sport. The vessel I'm sure cost a pretty penny, endorsements not withstanding.

I've got nothing against Ms Sunderland attempting the circumnavigation, for whatever reasons she can come up with. That said, you need to be aware of the risks, and be ready to bear the costs of any eventuality.
