An Australian teenager stepped onto the shore(海岸) for the first time in nearly nine months, announcing to the record for being the youngest solo sailor to circle the globe nonstop.
David Dicks, 18, left Perth on the 10-metre sailing boat On February 26th, 1996. He returned with a warm hero’s welcome, cheered by thousands on the shore and greeted by about 200 other boats.
At the age of 17 when he started out, the teenager’s voyage(航海) gave him his first look ever at snow when he rounded Cape Horn.
Strong winds in the Pacific broke his mast in May, but he kept going until he could borrow a tool from the British Royal Navy to fix it.
“David had dreamed of a round-the-world sail when he was five, inspired by a family friend who did it three times,” his mother Patricia Dicks said.
“Once he started making plans to do it, I never doubted that he would,” she said.
In September, 20-year-old Brain “BJ” Caldwell Jr. landed a 26 sloop(單桅帆船) in Hawaii and asked for the title of the youngest sailor circling the world. His asking was admitted by the World Sailing Commission.
Australian news reported that the last record holder accepted by the Guinness Book of Records was American Robert Lee Graham, who set out in 1965 at the age of 16.
Graham took five years to complete the trip, stopping off along the way to get married. But David asked for the nonstop voyages.
