About The Event
Review from Sharon Sites Adams book, Pacific Lady: “Eight-thousand miles of open ocean, with the same navigational tools used by Columbus, and no way to communicate. This is one gutsy lady. Widowed at thirty-four, she escaped into the world of sailing for the first time, bought her own boat, and sailed into history. As the press put it, ‘A woman who dared and won.’ This is the stuff movies are made from.”—Martel Scroggin, author of Wasco, The Moonlighters, and The Sheepshooters
