520    Abby Sutherland grew up sailing. Her father, Laurence, a 
       shipwright, and her mother, Marianne, wanted their kids to
       develop responsibility, to see other cultures, to 
       experience the world instead of watching it on TV. So they
       took them sailing down the coast of Mexico... for three 
       years. When Abby was thirteen, she began helping her 
       father deliver boats and soon was sailing solo. She loved 
       being on the open ocean, the spray in her face, the wind 
       in her hair. She began to dream of sailing the world.  But
       fewer people have successfully solo-circumnavigated the 
       globe than have traveled into space. It is a challenge so 
       immense that many have died trying, and all have been 
       pushed beyond every physical, emotional, psychological, 
       and spiritual limit. In Unsinkable, you will follow Abby 
       into the depths through a gripping and evocative firsthand
       account that starts prior to her departure, travels 
       through her daring (and sometimes near-death) encounters 
       on the open sea, to her dramatic rescue in the remotest 
       part of the Indian Ocean. Today, when the most productive 
       thing a teenager may do is play videogames, Abby's courage
       and tenacity shows us all what can happen when we choose 
       to challenge our own limits, embrace faith, and aim for 
       what our critics say is impossible. It was pitch-black out
       and whitewater was crashing over the boat. The wintry wind
       screamed across the deck, and I could tell it was now 
       holding up near fifty knots. Imagine standing on the roof 
       of a car that's driving down the freeway. That's how hard 
       it was blowing. At that moment, a huge gust hit the 
       mainsail like a train. The boat heeled over to port as if 
       a giant hand had smacked her down, and I tumbled over the 
       top of the mainsail toward the water... On January 23, 
       2010, sixteen-year-old Abby Sunderland set sail from 
       Marina del Rey, California, in an attempt to become the 
       youngest person to sail solo, nonstop, and unassisted 
       around the world. Immediately, her trip sparked 
       controversy. What was a girl her age doing undertaking 
       such a voyage? What were her parents thinking? Abby's 
       critics predicted she'd make it a few weeks at most. But 
       sailing south, she proved them wrong and became the 
       youngest person to solo around Cape Horn, the "Mt. Everest
       of sailing." Crossing the Southern and Atlantic oceans, 
       she battled vicious storms and equipment breakdowns making
       one critical repair literally with a nail file and some 
       line. Abby bested the wicked waters at the southern tip of
       Africa and then entered the Indian Ocean all twenty-seven 
       million square miles of it. Even less than a hundred years
       ago, having your boat become disabled in the middle of the
       Indian's immense rolling reaches was as good as a death 
       sentence. The odds are better now, but not much. It was 
       here that Abby Sutherland encountered the violent storms 
       that would test her mettle and her will to survive and 
       change her life forever.
