The only negative note struck was by the world sailing authority who expressed an opinion that was uninvited.Those envious old decrepits shook in their boots at being upstaged by yet another kid.These erstwile mariners feel their shine of their splendid deeds are beginning to wane and look pretty pale by contrast. Cant let that happen so what did they do?
Now as we all know they dont recognise any records under the age of 18 so they tried to get in their penny worth of a grizzle.Jessica Watson's record wasn't going to be recognised. Hang on.You have already aid that no record by any one 18 or under would be recognised so why comment on Jessica's great feat? Just to rain on her parade?You poor,lamenting and lamentable sods, it has nothing to do with you lot.Keep your traps shut. We arent interested in what you think about it or what you want to say about it.
Go back to sailing about in your bathtubs and having fun with your yellow ducks. Your'e safer there.
