I officially need Cole Bauer to become a super swimsuit model for the rest of her life!
Any of the sailors run into the aggressive Orca pod off the Portuguese coast?
Today show and its hosts Can pay her! 😂😂😁
Hardly a mention this was a race with other competitors.
Please tell us what town on Long Island she's from. It's a big place. And so many proud little towns. She's our SHERO❤
Congratulations to you. What a great success!!!
Jessica Watson, Pip Hare, Kristen Neuschafer, Ellen MacAurther, Laura Decker to name a few….you are joining a group of sea queens who have been killing it in sailing!
There was a 16 year old Australian girl who sailed around the world about a decade ago.
This only a first for the US not a world first.
Any mention of the guy that finished first?
Laura Dekker (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈlʌuraː ˈdɛkər]; born 20 September 1995) is a New Zealand-born Dutch sailor. In 2009, she announced her plan to become the youngest person to circumnavigate the globe single-handed. She was 16 years of age
I was watching Cole's feat from Australia. She did good. Really Good!
Hard core! Well done sister!
I currently hold the world's record for taking the longest to circumnavigate single-handed. . . . I haven't even left yet!
Amazing achievement as struggle to do RTW on Clipper with 16 crewmates 😅Respect
Impressive young lady well done , hero of millions.
You Go Girl!!! So Awesome!
These kind of stories eclipse anything that's happening in the political world. Amazing achievement made by ordinary people every day should be broadcast to the world. Very inspirational.
Wow 😮 !
Its an understatement but she's awesome.
Outstanding, mad respect 🙂
Sailing around the world single handed is one thing, Doing it as a race as fast as possible adds so much stress and danger to the trip.
The world IS round! Er ma gerd! Well done!
It raises the profile of sailing in the USA, as ocean sailing is treated as an elite sport for billionaires, re the americas cup, European women have done this ad nauseum and set records, in groups and as solo sailors. Great job Carole! Enjoy you new reality and beam with hard earned pride.
Oh wow. She is amazing.
Beyond amazing Welcome back to terra firma
Laura Decker…..
Solo…..
JESSICA WATSON !
Do a GOOGLE SEARCH….
Amazing!!! Congratulations
She isn’t the first…..maybe American because there is an Australian girl who sailed solo Circumventing the Earth…..
It seems that when someone NEW does something people forget who the Original FIRST person is……
Donna Lange has sailed her 28-foot Southern Cross twice around the world, her last sail a few years ago was nonstop in 330 days.
Kudos to her for completing the circumnavigation and coming in second.
But I was sorry to hear there was no mention of Kirsten Neuschäfer, who WON the Golden Globe, circumnavigating without stopping and using traditional (not GPS) sailing methods.
