Aside from the fact that she became the youngest person to sail around the UK at 14 years old, she restored her own wooden boat and shares a beautiful story of taking her parent’s passion and turning it into her own adventure. I am absolutely enthralled by her and excited to see what she does next.
I also love this article she wrote about restoring the boat with her dad (a self taught boat builder!) at age 13.

Hats off to Katie and to her Dad for his sponsorship of her efforts. A wonderful story and I have no doubt that Katie will get to compete in the Mini Transat in years to come.
