And we have a 13 year old girl trying to do it with the Dutch Child Protection Agency blocking her.......

"On Friday in the Netherlands, 13-year-old Laura Dekker will find out at a court hearing if she is allowed to try to break Mike's record. Her parents are in favour of it, but a Dutch child protection agency is so concerned about the dangers of a solo voyage that it has asked for temporary custody of Laura so it can block her trip."
