Seglare
This was the first 24 hours of the week-long shakedown cruise before she goes for the record currently held by Jessie Martin: Youngest solo, non-stop and unassisted.

There are no details at all yet (that I have found) but it really is a catastrophic start to her quest. The rigging is a mess and apparently the bow is too.
I can't wait to hear the explanation and hope it will shed some light on what happened that makes it clear that she didn't blow it but that there were truly extenuating circumstances. I don't see how a bulk carrier could make sudden unexpected moves, but I hope there is an explanation.
