Book excerpt: In 1978 the twenty-eight-year-old New Zealander, Naomi James, became the first woman to sail single-handed around the globe via Cape Horn. She did this in the fastest time ever. Naomi tells of her despair when the radio broke and she faced months of silence; of her embarrassment at discovering after three months at sea, that she had been confusing latitude with longitude; of her grief when the ship's kitten, Boris, went overboard; and of the black horror of a dawn capsize off Cape Horn.
