獨力航海環繞世界 加州17歲少年返家

The hardest part of a solo voyage is always being tired, Zac Sunderland says.

(法新社)2009年7月17日 星期五 11:50

(法新社洛杉磯 16日電) 一名獨自航海環繞世界的加州少年,今天結束旅途,平安返家,成為獨力完成這項壯舉最年輕的人。

17歲的孫德蘭(Zac Sunderland)結束旅程,踏上土地,接受家人和朋友迎接,他說:「這13個月來很瘋狂...最後回來這裡真棒。」

孫德蘭去年6月14日從馬瑞納德瑞港(Marina Del Rey)出發,當時他才16歲。他登上36英尺長的小船「無畏號」(Intrepid),揚帆朝西方航行。

去年11月29日,他在南非好望角(Cape of GoodHope)外海慶祝17歲生日。

現在孫德蘭希望出書,描寫他的冒險旅程,期望激發年輕人找到生命動力。

他說:「這個社會讓15歲到18歲的年輕人彷彿困在箱子裡,沒有人期望做大事。他們大概就希望上高中、打打美式足球,差不多就這樣。」

「生命中只要有正確的動機和正確的抱負,人們能做的就有許多可能... 我所做的就是步出戶外、挑戰困難。追求你所要的吧!」

根據美國航海協會(American Sailing Association),過去13個月長達5萬1860公里航程中,孫德蘭歷經避開大型貨輪、情緒低潮,並因設備故障而狼狽靠岸。

協會表示,至今只有不到250人獨力航海環繞世界。(譯者:中央社李威翰)

Teen becomes youngest to sail solo around world

By Scott Thompson
CNN

(CNN) -- A Southern California teenager has serious bragging rights: After docking back in his home state late Thursday morning, Zac Sunderland, 17, can claim to be the youngest person to sail around the world alone.

The hardest part of a solo voyage is always being tired, Zac Sunderland says.

Sunderland was greeted with thunderous applause and congratulations as he arrived at Marina del Rey in his 36-foot sailboat.

"It's kind of crazy to have it done now because, I mean, for the past year I've been just fighting for the next ocean, fighting to get back. And now I'm back so it's amazing," he said.

The teen acknowledged the 27,500-mile voyage wasn't easy. He told CNN that pirates off the coast of Indonesia gave him quite a scare.

"[I] had a boat circle in and ended up calling in the coast watch and they chased them off but, yeah, [I] lucked out there! About an hour and a half of hell."

Severe storms also were a problem, he said.

Sunderland's Web site says he bought the boat with his own money.

我好少會咁講, 但都好想講一句 : 我好仰慕佢 !

dreams of ours always remain as a dream, very very few of us can achieve dreams.

if i were to die today, the most accurate line to say in my funeral (as well as many other kids') would be :

she has dedicated most of her life to exams and study

如果今天我會死,我短暫的一生不過是在考試和讀書中渡過。

年輕根本就該輕狂。要玩樂,要 ' experience different things '。可惜我們經歷過的不過是一次又一次的考試,從末有時間和膽量去冒險。哪會有人這樣去體驗人生 ? 從來覺得人生苦短, 只覺得時間太少,力量太薄弱。生於香港,更覺難以有所成就。身邊人都急功近利,最在乎的不過是上哪間大學,能賺多少錢。

社會的問題。


唉,好想慢慢走去看看世界
