I would like to know what experience this kid has to warrant allowing her to do this alone. I can't believe that at 16 she has had enough experience to venture out solo. I know people have had sea-worthy experiences in their early teens, but I doubt they were solo ventures out into the open ocean for a intercontinental voyage.
I also thought that the 14 yr. old climbing Everest was idiotic as well.
Hell, it's idiotic for adults as well.
They had a show on a year or so ago about one expedition on Everest where people died and almost everyone suffered disfiguring frostbite on their face, hands and feet. These same people say they don't regret it (Sure, one adventure has changed your life FOREVER, and not in a good way, and you don't regret doing it?)
But back to the oceanic adventure....If she is found and rescued safely, she and her family should be MADE to pay for the rescue.
If she isn't found, they should pay for the attempt just the same.
If you can't afford to pay, you can't afford to play!
