Hi All, Jeff here ( Made the vid) Abby certainly wasnt depressed. We left the marina with about 1 hours daylight left, and along with her dad and Scott, she had plenty of items to think about and work thru, with a possible end to the weather window for trials, so i think she just had loads on her mind. It was a privilege to sail with her, she's upbeat and looking really forward to resuming her voyage! I will be following her out to shoot her 'departure' vid. :-)

So happy to hear that Abby is doing ok. To her Mom and Dad - how proud you must be!

Push trough girl. Hope you got back to land safe. And back to the sea afterwards. Prayers are with you.

Hope all is well. Reports are grim.

Drudge Report say feared lost at sea.......

Hey Abby ! You go girl ! we're all very proud to know and read about your voyage, I don't think I've got the courage that you do. I'm glad that you got off again looking forward to reading your continuing trip Bon Voyage !!

I hope that will be the end of autopilot problem. I'm happy to see her again on video. Good luck Abby.

You ARE an AMAZING young lady!!! I can't wait to share your story with my 14 year old daughter! You are exactly the kind of role model the world needs! .........I hope you write a book about your grand adventure!

I am in awe of you and your spirit. Not only are you sailing solo around the whole world, but you never get lost!! I am in my mid-fifties. I got lost driving a golf cart around Catalina with a map in my hands. Abby, you are wonderful!

Very noisy! Is it like that all the way around the world?!

Wow, at that age my worst worry was how to get my pants leg out of my bicycle chain sprocket. I find it very interesting a young person could have the courage and fortitude to take on such a trip. Good Luck to you.

@mrroper: I am very sorry for interfering in your preparations. I was just stating an observation and had hoped to encourage Abby on her further journey. Never mind, I wish her a successful continuation. May all winds and ocean conditions be favourable for the rest of the trip, I am sorry for my comment. Over... and out.
