Boats (not?) to go round the world in

Touring around Brisbane, I came across a few boats! Apart from the fact it’s pink, I thought this 34′ yacht was quite small enough to complete a round-the-world trip. Add to that the fact that the skipper, Jessica Watson, was just 16 and she was single handed.

Then right next to it there was this, which also did a round-the-world trip. It wouldn’t have taken more than one crew member, and the write-up doesn’t say how he ever managed to go to the toilet!

Makes mine look quite massive!
