Great video (partly in French) of Samantha Davies on Roxy, rocking out to Cindy Lauper. You can see it here. Check it out. It's well-worth it. At the time she was 200 miles from the Horn (i.e, in the Fifties) coming towards the most dire places on earth for sailors; she has been on her own for 62 days; racers are retiring by the bucketload - Sam is bopping around her boat like she is on a party boat round the BVIs.

As of this post, Sam has rounded the Horn and is heading North into the Atlantic.

Sail on Sam!
