Jessica Rounds Cape Horn!

http://www.jessicawatson.com.au/jessica-conquers-cape-horn

Pic below: Diego Ramirez Islands in the background, taken by Jessica earlier today, approx 60nm before reaching Cape Horn. This is significant in that it was the first land Jessica has seen since departing Sydney on 18 October.

G'day Jess,

Congratulations. You little bewdy!!

This is a copy of my comment on yesterdays post. I did some calculastions based on your blog this morning and with 80nm and I estimated you doing at least 6 knots in the conditions. Turns out I was about 10 minutes out in estimating your rounding.

You are a truly incredible young lady. After this what won't you be able to do.

We're all proud of you and elated for you.

Good Onya and God Blessya

P.S. only 2 capes to go and a 90 degre turn to port and you'll be in Syudney.

HIP HIP HOORAY!!!!

I've been so busy all day, I haven't had a chance to check the blog so finishing at 10.15pm tonight the first thing I did was look to see if you did it and YOU DID! You must be on cloud nine right now, not only achieving this amazing feat but having mum and dad so near above you. Not to mention the cheer squad with those navy guys. Enjoy this moment and know we are all so proud of you and wish you continued fair weather as you reach the half way mark and all the way home.

Toni McLean said...

Tears of joy and pride and wonder and bedazzlement at this fantastically significant milestone and achievement for you Jesse. In one way it's just another rock to get around, but such a symbolic one. Sounds as though you had a real ride, but I expect you might have been really disappointed if it had been too tame! Hopefully just enough adventure for you to make it even more memorable. I just knew you'd get there tonight.

I guess we can all start breathing again. I know I've been holding my breath and I'm sure I wasn't alone.

Hope you get to tuck out of the wind soon so you can have a 'rest'!

And I hope you were able to pop a lovely bottle of orange juice to celebrate. Oh no, of course, chocolate! Silly me! I'll toast you with a piece of chocolate here!

Well, I hope it becomes a bit easier for you now, at least until you get to the Indian Ocean. I think you will be heading a bit northerly in the Atlantic?

Thanks so much Samurai for that lovely little work of art to honour Jesse. I think she will be the next sporting living treasure after Cathy Freeman!

Look forward to reading just a little more about the last few hours, when you've got more time.

Take really good care now.

You are one of a kind Jessica, What a gem!

Since I followed you from August, I NEVER had any doubts, that you would not accomplish, what you set out to do!

Samurai, your card is so creative! Well done!

Hope everything went well and you got to speak with your parents and to see the plane.
Did all those navy guys line up on the ship and salute you Captain Watson???

Way to go! I am so emotional, I don't know what to say!

Sail on Jessica, keep well, happy and above all else stay safe!

You have done it!
You have rounded the most famous, infamous, feared and respected place on the world seas!

Your performance so far has been world class!
I can say that after reading about so much trouble other boats have had.
Of course the people who prepared Ellas Pink Lady must take a part of the hounour. You did a great job!
But you Jessica have showed skill well enough for this kind of voyage!
You have maintained the boat, watched for potential trouble, and repaired what has been needed.
You have a good safety awareness, needed for ocean racing, but without being too careful.
So all people doubting your ability were wrong, and I have on the net not found any people still doubting it.

It is not age or gender that decides failure or success (as could be read between the lines before the departure).
It is attitude (real, not pretended), skill and preparation. With correct real attitude comes preparation, and from there skill.
Some people think that the apparant attitude is the important, but you can't prove skill by talking.
But you have not cared so much what negativists have said, but listened to the supporters.
And see what you have achieved!

As with climbing Mount Everest you must get back home also. Safe sailing and congratulations!!
Sorry I can't be at the arrival in Australia, but I will follow the blog and the news broadcasts.

By the way, a message to the shore crew: I guessed approximately right. In my message January 12, 2010 8:54 PM, I guessed Wednesday 9-11 PM (Aus east time) or 5-7 AM (US east time).
You guessed wrong, you guessed "some stage on Thursday morning (AEDT)", but Jessica was faster than that.

I ask all to stand up and give 3 cheers, Hip Hip hooray, Hip Hip Hooray, Hip Hip Hooray.
From the vision in the photo your parents would have been able to see you, lifting your will to continue, even stronger.
Your sailing skills have shown the world who Jessica Watson is.

It's 7:15 AM here in Georgia so it's a wee bit early to pop a cork on the bubbly to toast this crowning achievement but there is always the coming of the sun being over the yard arm this evening to mark your accomplishment.

Certainly somewhere there will be a few naysayers who will still say "She's just too young to be doing this" but you showed'em kiddo.

Sail on into the history that you have made and welcome to the Atlantic side of the world.

Safe sailing and Godspeed

Hi Jessica
Huge Congratulations on topping Everest, and in wind and seas that emphatically indicate your skill as a Sailor. You really are now one of the elite who have achieved this goal solo. And congratulations on now sailing 9,800nm. It IS a day that you, your family, and us Jessaholic blog addicts will never forget.

Thanks to Andrew of your shore team for the update advice and photo, and thanks to “Aunty Sam” (Samurai) for the wonderful visual tribute given under the heading “Jessica conquers Cape Horn”.

I’ve decided to be no longer an ‘anonymous’ blogger, hence the photo – but its still me from Mt Martha. Keep on having the time of your life – we are having the time of our lives reading what you are doing.

Hi Jesse - congratulations precious girl you have done yourself and the country proud. What an ambassador; one all Australians can be so proud of. You have reached this milestone with a minimum of fuss and with a lot of grace and humility.

Tonight I plan to raise the flag full mast, I have a large photograph of you Jesse pinned to the top of the flagpole and I have borrowed a trumpet and I plan to blow it as loud as possible punctuated by a few Crown Lagers. I will be joined by 6 of my surfing mates. You are so very very special darl.

I do hope Mum and Dad saw the event and dear me: how proud would they be?? The other thing Jesse is you have proven the doomsayers to be wrong and although there is still a long way to Sydney what you have shown is you are capable of pulling off what these people said was not possible for one so young. Thanks for serving it up to this mob in the best way possible - make fools of them!!

OK precious one take lots of care wont you; it is important you feel good about yourself and the achievement but it is now important to get yourself back on the job because my worry beads are awful worriers.

Love ya Jesse and God Bless.

Hi Jessica,
Well young lady, you’ve made it, and you had to work for it, nothing on a silver platter. Just the way you would prefer it. Yes??? Right!!!! Mist, drizzle and a 40 knot (46mph) wind with a 4metre (13ft) sea, which is what Jessica calls ‘the bumpy stuff’.

For the Shore Crew:
I know this is Jessica’s moment, but let’s not forget the Shore Crew(she wouldn’t want to) who did a great job backing Jessica up, and to all the other people behind Jessica that we never see or get mentioned. Kudo’s to all. It would be nice to see a picture of all of them in their celebration. How about it Andrew?????

Now I hope all goes well on seeing your Mum and Dad pretty soon. Do you know about what time they will be arriving? Please don’t throw your arm out waving to them, you’re going to need it some more. LOL…….

Catcha later……
So proud of you…...
Looking forward to your next post, whenever you can.
Loads of love and hugs, your faithful friend, fan and follower.

Many, many congratulations on the totally impressive feat of rounding Cape Horn, the legendary nemesis of sailors for centuries. Thanks goes out to your family, your support crew, and Weatherman Bob for helping you "thread the needle" between storm systems!

You look excellent in your video, not at all like someone who has spent 80 days on a sailboat! As always "Jesse Watson, cute and tough!" What a combo. I can't wait to hear about all the flyovers, naval escorts, etc .

You Are the Best!

I pray that all of these things will be a comfort and encouragement to you. I am praying a prayer of thanksgiving, too, as God has brought you safely this far.
