1 00:00:12 I grew up on the Sunshine Coast in Australia,
2 00:00:15 which means my family and I were never far from the ocean.
3 00:00:18 If we weren't in it, we were on it.
4 00:00:21 We practically lived on our boat, Home Abroad.
5 00:00:24 It was a tight fit, Mum, Dad, and the four of us kids,
6 00:00:28 but we were happy because we were together.
7 00:00:32 At night, Mum would tell us stories about a starman in the sky,
8 00:00:36 then the waves would rock us to sleep.
9 00:00:41 I'll never forget the first time I sailed by myself,
10 00:00:44 the rush of excitement when my sail caught the wind,
11 00:00:48 the magic and the allure of the sea.
12 00:00:51 I was the captain and the whole world was in front of me,
13 00:00:54 just waiting to be discovered.
14 00:00:57 I could hear the ocean calling my name.
15 00:01:00 By the time I was 12, I was obsessed.
16 00:01:03 For four years, I studied the ocean, the waves,
17 00:01:06 and learnt everything I could about sailing boats.
18 00:01:08 I worked three part-time jobs and saved money,
19 00:01:11 because I dreamed that one day I would sail around the world.
20 00:04:05 Jess, how's the practice run going?
21 00:04:07 Cargo ship hit me. Came out of nowhere.
22 00:04:10 You taking on water?
23 00:04:12 No. No, doesn't look like it, but I've been dismasted.
24 00:04:16 Why didn't the alarm go off?
25 00:04:19 Okay, give me your coordinates.
26 00:04:31 Jess, breathe.
27 00:04:34 Focus.
28 00:04:57 Oh, my God, what happened?
29 00:04:59 She's okay. Collided with a cargo ship.
30 00:05:03 She was hit by a cargo ship?
31 00:05:04 Cool.
32 00:05:06 Not cool, Tom.
33 00:05:08 Is she gonna be all right?
34 00:05:09 -I'm sure she'll be fine. Go back to bed. -As if.
35 00:05:15 Jess, are you hurt?
36 00:05:17 No, Mum, I'm fine.
37 00:05:20 Really, I promise.
38 00:05:26 Thought we agreed, no collisions.
39 00:05:29 I couldn't help myself.
40 00:05:30 Can I talk to Jess? I want to talk to Jess!
41 00:05:32 -Oh, can I talk to her? -I haven't talked to her.
42 00:05:34 -Jess, was it a pirate ship? -She's getting her coordinates wrong.
43 00:05:37 Okay, come on. That's it. -I'm calling the Coast Guard.
44 00:05:39 -Don't. Reporters will be lining the docks.
45 00:05:42 They are waiting for her to fail. She cannot come limping back in.
46 00:05:45 -Do we know if the boat's seaworthy? -She reckons it is.
47 00:05:48 -Oh, well, as long as the 16-year-old-- -Jess needs to know she can do this alone.
48 00:05:53 She's only 20 miles from the shore.
49 00:05:56 Now imagine if she does this, and she's 2,000 miles from the nearest port.
50 00:06:01 We'll be at the marina to meet you. It's probably not that bad in daylight.
51 00:06:04 Thanks, Em.
52 00:06:19 Jess!
53 00:06:23 Okay, so when I say tack,
54 00:06:25 we're gonna switch the sail to the other side.
55 00:06:28 You ready to win?
56 00:06:29 All right, guys, let's get started!
57 00:06:39 Hey! Jess, what's wrong? -I'm not ready.
58 00:06:41 -No? -Oh, sweetheart.
59 00:06:43 -Don't want to go, kiddo? I think we're still finding our sea legs.
60 00:06:47 -Fair enough. -Well, I heard you're the favorite to win.
61 00:06:50 Yeah. Maybe.
62 00:06:53 Come on, Jess!
63 00:06:54 You won't know what's out there unless you try.
64 00:06:57 No, no, not too far.
65 00:06:59 Wait, Emily, wait!
66 00:07:01 Quick, Jess!
67 00:07:09 Come here. There you go.
68 00:07:25 Atherton! Hey, Atherton!
69 00:07:29 How come he's allowed down there?
70 00:07:35 -Atherton. -Ben.
71 00:07:37 Don't know what you lot think you're doing here.
72 00:07:43 that boat is a shockingly tiny thing to send a child out to sea in.
73 00:07:47 -It's pretty flimsy too. -Leave it.
74 00:07:50 Vultures.
75 00:07:52 Then don't feed them.
76 00:07:54 Why aren't we feeding vultures?
77 00:07:56 It's not every day that someone
78 00:07:57 as young as your sister tries to do what she's doing.
79 00:08:00 It's a big deal. People have questions, that's all.
80 00:08:03 Plus, it makes her a target.
81 00:08:04 If she succeeds, she's a hero. If she fails, well, tragedy sells.
82 00:08:09 She's ten.
83 00:08:16 They're looking for weakness. Don't let 'em treat you any different.
84 00:08:20 You're a captain, got it?
85 00:08:32 All right, I'm Ben Bryant, Jessica's advisor.
86 00:08:37 Jess.
87 00:08:38 I-- I'm Jessica Watson.
88 00:08:46 to sail around the world nonstop and unassisted.
89 00:08:49 Jessica, what happened last night?
90 00:08:50 -There was a collision. -Were you at fault?
91 00:08:52 A cargo ship detoured from its route.
92 00:08:54 Jessica, this was night one of your only test run.
93 00:08:58 How are you gonna make it around the world if you can't make it between two ports?
94 00:09:02 Uh, and we're not here for you. Thanks, Ben.
95 00:09:06 I believe I can.
96 00:09:07 You understand what you're in for?
97 00:09:10 Uh, we're talking open ocean, waves the size of apartment buildings,
98 00:09:14 70-knot winds.
99 00:09:15 I mean, this is the Mount Everest of sailing.
100 00:09:18 Well, yes, the-- the route is challenging,
101 00:09:21 but, uh, I've sailed half my life, so I--
102 00:09:23 So a couple years then?
103 00:09:26 I've done the 10,000 nautical miles. I'm qualified.
104 00:09:30 And we've prepared.
105 00:09:31 How could she prepare for a cargo ship that ignores its radar?
106 00:09:34 So why didn't your proximity alarms alert you before the crash?
107 00:09:40 -I forgot to turn them on.
108 00:09:44 Mr. and Mrs. Watson, surely you have reservations hearing that?
109 00:09:48 She made a mistake. It's one I'm certain she won't make again.
110 00:09:52 So you don't think 16 is too young?
111 00:09:54 Who are we to deny her her dreams?
112 00:09:56 She's worked hard and proven she can do this every step of the way.
113 00:09:59 So when is the new departure day?
114 00:10:02 Uh, well, I guess we just have to leave by mid-October.
115 00:10:05 So two weeks. Hmm, optimistic, no?
116 00:10:09 Well, it's the last window before the Southern Ocean's filled with icebergs.
117 00:10:13 Jessica!
118 00:10:14 Well, what about calls by authorities to cancel altogether?
119 00:10:16 Ben, are you the right person to bring this girl home?
120 00:10:19 Got a bit of experience.
121 00:10:20 But as captain in the Millennium Cup, you lost one of your own crew members.
122 00:10:23 A Matt Turner.
123 00:10:25 Hey! That's enough.
124 00:10:26 -Well, let me finish-- -Nah. We're done here.
125 00:10:33 Four years of hard work boils down to this.
126 00:10:36 Ben, I looked at the radar and I didn't see the ship.
127 00:10:39 And it was just a short nap. So I didn't think that--
128 00:10:41 No, you didn't think. It was irresponsible, Jess.
129 00:10:44 You know you kept getting your coordinates wrong too?
130 00:10:49 It's your state of mind that matters out there.
131 00:10:51 If dyslexia takes over, you are lost in the middle of the ocean, mate.
132 00:10:55 All right. All right, we get it.
133 00:10:59 Do you reckon we can fix it?
134 00:11:06 there's some life left in her yet.
135 00:11:08 I mean, these aren't small repairs, though.
136 00:11:11 We've got no money, no manpower, no location to even fix it.
137 00:11:14 Yeah, but won't my sponsors help?
138 00:11:17 Not sure they'll want to pay for a new mast twice over.
139 00:11:20 We can get creative with a lot of it. You know, reuse this rig, patch where possible.
140 00:11:25 Not a chance. We do it right, down to the smallest bolt.
141 00:11:27 But what if we can't get the money? -Then you wait another year.
142 00:11:30 -Dad! Your safety is the only thing that matters.
143 00:11:33 And I have no problem calling this off if things aren't done properly.
144 00:11:41 -No. It was an accident-- -Hey, no one's making any decisions now.
145 00:11:44 Let's wait and see what the sponsors have to say first. Right, Jess?
146 00:11:48 Yeah. Yeah, right.
147 00:11:57 Last year's NRL Grand Final winners, the Manly Sea Eagles,
148 00:12:01 look set to take out the premiership again this year
149 00:12:03 after thrashing the Melbourne Storm 34-6 over the weekend.
150 00:12:08 This will be Manly's third consecutive Grand Final.
151 00:12:11 Don't forget netball after school.
152 00:12:16 Oi, very good!
153 00:12:17 Don't think anything new's gonna appear in there, Tom.
154 00:12:20 -Very good. -You're gonna make yourself dizzy.
155 00:12:23 -I know!
156 00:12:25 -Got you! -Oi! Cut it out!
157 00:12:27 -Would they pay me for interviews? -Not enough for repairs.
158 00:12:37 When she read solo sailor Jesse Martin's book,
159 00:12:40 she was inspired to circumnavigate the globe.
160 00:12:44 While homeschooled, 12-year-old Jessica began training
161 00:12:47 with infamous sailor Ben Bryant, and worked rigorously to pursue her dream.
162 00:12:52 But has that dream turned into a nightmare?
163 00:12:56 Whoa! Plot twist!
164 00:12:57 Child welfare groups are calling
165 00:12:58 the attempt by the schoolgirl irresponsible and dangerous.
166 00:13:01 They can't help themselves.
167 00:13:02 A child does not have the ability to understand the risks involved.
168 00:13:07 You'd think they'd have something bloody better to talk about.
169 00:13:09 The question on everyone's lips, "Is Jessica Watson too young,
170 00:13:14 and where are her parents in all of this?"
171 00:13:17 You do have to wonder if this is Jessica's dream or theirs.
172 00:13:20 It's on social media too. They're calling us "bogan pirates."
173 00:13:25 Oh, come on, that's great.
174 00:13:27 Let me write a comment!
175 00:13:29 -No, Hannah. -No, Hanna, no.
176 00:13:30 The Queensland government is working on a bill
177 00:13:33 to stop Jessica from sailing, citing child welfare.
178 00:13:37 They can't do that! Can they?
179 00:13:47 The person you are calling is unavailable. Please try again.
180 00:13:57 It can't be that bad.
181 00:13:58 Oh, no. No, just everything's falling apart.
182 00:14:01 Sheds are booked up.
183 00:14:03 Can't afford help or parts, and now, none of my sponsors are responding.
184 00:14:07 You have to give them a minute.
185 00:14:09 I don't have time.
186 00:14:13 I bet they're watching the news.
187 00:14:17 -Everyone's saying I can't do it. -Who cares?
188 00:14:20 -You think you can. -Only if I get Pink fixed in time.
189 00:14:30 I know things aren't going according to plan,
190 00:14:35 But it's when things go wrong that your true character's revealed.
191 00:14:41 And right now, I'm looking at a strong, committed, tenacious young woman
192 00:14:45 who will figure this out.
193 00:14:50 So I'm not those things the rest of the time?
194 00:14:52 No, the rest of the time you're an absolute nightmare.
195 00:14:54 Yeah.
196 00:14:58 You can overcome anything if you keep working at it, Jess.
197 00:15:03 I've watched you do it before.
198 00:15:14 It's impossible.
199 00:15:16 Let's try something a little more up your alley.
200 00:15:20 The colors will help you focus. Try again.
201 00:15:24 "Jesse Martin, the youngest person
202 00:15:30 to s-- sail solo
203 00:15:32 ar-- around the world."
204 00:15:35 Around the whole world?
205 00:15:38 You can do that?
206 00:15:48 I did a full inspection and I got costs.
207 00:15:52 And we'll need a new mast, new rigging, hull repairs.
208 00:15:57 That is just a slight delay, I reckon.
209 00:15:59 As long as I'm on the ocean before November.
210 00:16:02 -Hello, Earth to Ben! -What?
211 00:16:05 Come on, Ben, I'm serious.
212 00:16:06 We can still do this. -There's still time to fix up Pink--
213 00:16:09 -I know.
214 00:16:11 -You coming?
215 00:16:14 Where to?
216 00:16:17 Got something to show you.
217 00:16:28 -Ben, I don't want another boat. -Yep.
218 00:16:30 Pink and I are a team. I know Pink.
219 00:16:32 I know when she's angry.
220 00:16:34 -I know when she's in trouble. -Yeah.
221 00:16:55 Rounded up a bit of assistance.
222 00:16:57 Once the media attacked you,
223 00:16:59 I couldn't stop 'em from volunteering to help.
224 00:17:02 Why?
225 00:17:03 Well, media went after one of our own.
226 00:17:06 You might be sailing solo, but you belong to a tribe now.
227 00:17:11 This gets you on the water before they pass this blasted bill.
228 00:17:18 -It's all real, Jess. Look behind you. -She's here!
229 00:17:26 Oi, Hannah, don't touch anything! No!
230 00:17:30 Come on!
231 00:17:40 Cloth? Thanks, mate.
232 00:17:46 Okay, just a sec.
233 00:17:54 Right, it's one, two, three, four.
234 00:17:58 Tom!
235 00:18:38 Hey, Roger. -Rog, mate, just a quick question.
236 00:18:54 Hey, Pink.
237 00:18:57 Welcome back.
238 00:19:05 -No! -Easy, easy!
239 00:19:09 Can't they take a break for one day?
240 00:19:11 And calls to stop Jessica only grow.
241 00:19:14 Even her father expressed doubt earlier today.
242 00:19:16 Rog! Man, how are you feeling about Jess's collision?
243 00:19:19 Well, uh, you know, any teen crashing their vehicle doesn't exactly fill you with confidence, does it?
244 00:19:26 What happened to not talking to the media? It was a joke.
245 00:19:29 That you made on national TV. Uh, he took it out of context, you know?
246 00:19:34 -Do you think I can't do it? -What?
247 00:19:39 I don't know.
248 00:19:40 To be honest, I thought this would be something you'd fixate on for a month
249 00:19:44 and then you'd get over it. Rog, stop.
250 00:19:50 I'm sorry.
251 00:19:54 Do you wish I wasn't going?
252 00:19:57 Hey.
253 00:19:59 You listen to me, all right?
254 00:20:02 I want you to achieve everything that you aspire to.
255 00:20:09 you're my little girl.
256 00:20:12 Yeah?
257 00:20:16 Yeah.
258 00:20:20 Jess.
259 00:20:25 Hey. Don't you start.
260 00:20:29 Damn it.
261 00:20:36 You know he doesn't mean it. He's just scared.
262 00:20:41 Maybe the journo's right, No.
263 00:20:48 Dad definitely doesn't like that either. Trust me.
264 00:20:54 You know, people are always gonna have opinions
265 00:20:57 on what you should and shouldn't be doing.
266 00:21:00 But I see how happy you are when you sail,
267 00:21:03 so just do it for you.
268 00:21:06 You're very wise.
269 00:21:08 All right. Surprise time.
270 00:21:10 -Okay.
271 00:21:14 I set up a blog for your trip.
272 00:21:17 -What? -Don't worry. I'll run it.
273 00:21:21 Then everyone can hear your voice,
274 00:21:23 'cause I think it's worth listening to. Sometimes.
275 00:21:33 Thanks, Em.
276 00:21:36 Tim Tam?
277 00:21:40 Okay, I'm warmed up.
278 00:21:42 -You guys good? Three, two, one. -Rolling.
279 00:21:47 And the day has finally come.
280 00:21:49 In just a few hours and after several setbacks,
281 00:21:52 Jessica Watson is set to embark on her solo voyage,
282 00:21:56 ignoring her critics and outrunning the government bill.
283 00:22:01 Whoo! That's the one. Print that.
284 00:22:05 There you go. Yeah, thanks, darling.
285 00:22:12 For when you get lonely.
286 00:22:14 No, I can't take Kobi Koala. She's your favorite.
287 00:22:18 Yeah.
288 00:22:19 That's why she's just on loan.
289 00:22:21 Okay?
290 00:22:23 All right, then I promise to bring her home safe, yeah?
291 00:22:34 -All right, fast and quick. -Yeah.
292 00:22:40 Doing an awful lot to get out of homework.
293 00:22:45 Bye, Tom. All right.
294 00:22:55 -So I packed the chocolate you asked for. -Don't eat it all in one go, all right?
295 00:22:58 -Thanks, Dad.
296 00:23:00 I want you to call and give me your longs and lats twice a day.
297 00:23:02 Why?
298 00:23:03 Because if you get them wrong, I'll know you're stressed.
299 00:23:06 Using dyslexia to spy on me?
300 00:23:07 Yeah, that's right. -No buts, all right?
301 00:23:19 You'll be all right.
302 00:23:24 Hey.
303 00:23:32 Watch the sunsets,
304 00:23:37 You come back home safe, okay?
305 00:23:48 Do you think she's ready?
306 00:23:51 Only one way to find out.
307 00:23:55 It's a good luck charm from my first nav.
308 00:23:59 Always brought me back. It's yours now.
309 00:24:02 -Ben, I can't. -'Course you can.
310 00:24:08 Go on. Get out of here.
311 00:24:26 Bye, Jess!
312 00:24:34 Good luck!
313 00:24:36 Bye!
314 00:24:41 She'll be okay.
315 00:25:34 All right.
316 00:25:40 There she is, starting now.
317 00:25:43 -Four-point-one-three?
318 00:25:45 -Four-point-one-three.
319 00:26:31 Oh, whoa! All right, Pink!
320 00:27:14 -Ew, you're disgusting! -My mouth is full.
321 00:27:19 Okay, so listen up.
322 00:27:22 Ben's agreed to work in here while, uh, he's tracking Jess,
323 00:27:25 so just give him a bit of space, all right?
324 00:27:37 What is all this stuff?
325 00:27:38 Don't touch anything.
326 00:27:40 -Then don't touch my Weet-Bix. -Fine.
327 00:27:43 -Fine.
328 00:27:45 All right.
329 00:27:57 -Is that Jessica? -I got it! I got it.
330 00:27:59 -Mine, mine, mine! Hey, mate.
331 00:28:01 27 degrees, 33 minutes south, and 170 degrees, 30 minutes east.
332 00:28:08 -Spot on.
333 00:28:09 How are the supplies, do you have enough? Dad, I only just left.
334 00:28:14 Oh, no, Jules! Oh, my--
335 00:28:16 Jess!
336 00:28:18 Hi, Mum!
337 00:28:20 How's it feel out there?
338 00:28:23 Worth the wait.
339 00:28:41 Chuck the rope.
340 00:28:44 I got it.
341 00:28:48 Just do it!
342 00:29:09 Is that acceptable?
343 00:29:10 Yep. Thanks, kid.
344 00:29:13 No one thinks I'm big or strong enough to do anything.
345 00:29:18 But I am!
346 00:29:19 I practice all the time, whenever I get the chance.
347 00:29:22 You don't have to prove anything to me, mate.
348 00:29:25 Well, that's what girls have to do.
349 00:29:28 Are you Ben Bryant?
350 00:29:31 -No. -Yes, you are.
351 00:29:33 You lost the tip of your pinky finger sailing in Antarctica.
352 00:29:40 I didn't lose it.
353 00:29:43 -I put it in the drawer. -Cool.
354 00:29:46 You've done 12 Sydney to Hobarts and circumnavigated solo three times.
355 00:29:52 Is solo sailing good?
356 00:29:53 Yeah, it's great.
357 00:29:55 No one talks to you.
358 00:29:58 I'm trying to get experience so I can sail the world,
359 00:30:01 but no one's giving me a chance to.
360 00:30:03 So? Make your own chance.
361 00:30:11 Hi, I'm Jess.
362 00:30:13 Welcome to my video log!
363 00:30:15 Traditionally, sailors keep log books,
364 00:30:16 but you can't deprive me of screen time for half a year.
365 00:30:20 I'm sure it'll just be my mum watching, though.
366 00:30:23 Hi, Mum!
367 00:30:25 I thought I'd give you a tour of my home for the next seven months,
368 00:30:30 Here's my kitchen where I'll be cooking.
369 00:30:33 And here is the nav table where I control all the electrics and communication.
370 00:30:37 Uh, my berth, where I'll sleep.
371 00:30:42 Dunny.
372 00:30:44 Uh, and this is where all my food is.
373 00:30:49 Oh, my God, freeze-dried broccoli.
374 00:30:56 Nice one, Dad.
375 00:30:59 So I'll be sailing unassisted and nonstop.
376 00:31:01 So if I pull into port, I'm disqualified.
377 00:31:04 And I have to cross all lines of longitude and round all four capes
378 00:31:07 for it to count as a true circumnavigation.
379 00:31:10 Here's what I'll be doing.
380 00:31:12 Okay, here's Sydney.
381 00:31:14 Going northeast, up past the equator,
382 00:31:16 then back down south to round Cape Horn at the tip of Chile,
383 00:31:19 then across the Atlantic Ocean to the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa,
384 00:31:25 then over the Indian Ocean to Cape Leeuwin in Western Australia,
385 00:31:31 then down around the South East Cape in Tasmania,
386 00:31:35 and back up to Sydney Harbor.
387 00:31:37 So not so much really.
388 00:31:43 Come on!
389 00:31:44 All right, so this is the tiller to steer,
390 00:31:47 but it's on autopilot at the moment.
391 00:31:50 Uh, the lifeboat is under here,
392 00:31:52 and in here is the drogue.
393 00:31:54 It's like a soft anchor.
394 00:31:57 It slows the boat down during storms and keeps it stable.
395 00:32:02 Here's my shower,
396 00:32:04 although I have discovered that I left my hairbrush at home.
397 00:32:07 So I'll just have to use this for 200 days.
398 00:32:12 At least the backyard makes up for it, though.
399 00:32:33 Hungry, Kobi?
400 00:32:45 -Jess. -Hey.
401 00:32:47 Uh, ship detection alarms work. Uh, one just went past northwest of me.
402 00:32:52 Good to know. Well, that'll be the last ship you see for a while now.
403 00:32:57 How do you know?
404 00:33:01 Listen, let that crash be a lesson to you, eh?
405 00:33:06 You know how to handle it now.
406 00:33:12 -Did you ever get lonely? -Oh, sometimes.
407 00:33:15 -But I know how to get over it. -How?
408 00:33:19 -Sing.
409 00:33:21 -Sing? You-- You sang?
410 00:33:23 We're sailors. That's what we're supposed to do.
411 00:33:27 Try to get some sleep, eh?
412 00:33:30 You've just got the first-week jitters, that's all. Oh! Fish are calling.
413 00:33:33 -Gotta go. -Okay.
414 00:33:36 Come on.
415 00:33:41 Oh, bugger!
416 00:34:21 Jessica Watson's family traveled Australia in a purpose-built double-decker bus
417 00:34:26 before moving onto a boat when Jessica was nine.
418 00:34:40 Thanks, Susie. The real danger, of course, will be the Indian and Southern Oceans, where dozens of sailors,
419 00:34:44 who are far more experienced than young Jessica Watson,
420 00:34:48 have endured knockdown after knockdown.
421 00:34:50 Didn't need to hear that.
422 00:34:57 Okay, so crossing the equator is a big deal for sailors.
423 00:35:01 You've proven your seaworthiness and must be initiated
424 00:35:03 into the Fraternity of Mariners.
425 00:35:08 South, twenty, fifteen, ten, five, zero!
426 00:35:14 We crossed from the Southern Hemisphere into the Northern Hemisphere!
427 00:35:31 Quite refreshing, actually.
428 00:35:33 A toast to King Neptune!
429 00:35:42 -To Jess. -To Jess! Cheers!
430 00:35:48 I can't believe she's crossed the equator. So cool.
431 00:36:02 Red sky at night, sailor's delight. Red sky in the morning, sailor's warning.
432 00:36:16 See the forecast?
433 00:36:17 Yeah, sky says it all.
434 00:36:20 Yeah. Jess, this is gonna be a big one. Let's talk game, eh?
435 00:36:26 I'll change course.
436 00:36:28 I think you should launch the drogue. Weather it.
437 00:36:34 Go through the storm?
438 00:36:35 Well, it's moving fast. There's no way you're gonna outrun it.
439 00:36:39 But that also means it's gonna pass quickly. -Thank God.
440 00:36:42 -W-- Hang on, hang on. We agreed to do whatever's safest.
441 00:36:45 Storms in this region aren't common, Dad. It's hard to judge.
442 00:36:50 It's like an anchor.
443 00:36:51 The drogue will keep her stable. She'll be okay.
444 00:36:56 I think it's our best option, Jess. It's your call.
445 00:37:04 Okay.
446 00:37:08 -Talk to me.
447 00:37:10 Protocols. Yeah, let's break it down.
448 00:37:12 I don't know. I don't-- I don't like this.
449 00:37:15 Ben knows his stuff, whatever you think of him. What's more, so does Jess.
450 00:37:22 -You know the drill.
451 00:37:24 -Yeah.
452 00:39:59 Come on, drogue!
453 00:41:13 I have something to tell you. I want to circumnavigate the world solo.
454 00:41:18 And I'm gonna be the youngest person to do it.
455 00:41:23 What?
456 00:41:25 Jesse Martin did it when he was 17. He was an ordinary kid, so am I.
457 00:41:32 Don't worry, I've got a plan.
458 00:41:33 I'll get a teacher, qualifications.
459 00:41:36 Here's a list of all the things I'll need and the safety courses I'll do to start.
460 00:41:43 I'll get jobs to earn money, and find sponsors to cover the big costs,
461 00:41:47 and for every hour I sail, I'll still do an hour of reading.
462 00:41:53 -Now, that's a good amount of reading!
463 00:41:54 -She knows her audience. -Yeah.
464 00:41:56 Well, uh, you'd better start working through that list, then. Thoroughly.
465 00:42:00 I think you can do anything you set your mind to, honey.
466 00:42:23 -Jess! You okay?
467 00:42:26 -Yeah, I'm fine. -What happened? Why didn't you call?
468 00:42:31 Well, I got knocked out, but I'm fine.
469 00:42:33 -What? -Knocked out? Are you okay?
470 00:42:36 -Do you have a concussion? -Sick.
471 00:42:38 -You need a doctor! -Oh, I didn't pack one of those.
472 00:42:42 Hey, come on. Jess, listen to me.
473 00:42:43 Do you have a headache, ringing in the ears, or nausea or something?
474 00:42:46 Dad, please stop. I'm fine.
475 00:42:50 Is Ben there?
476 00:42:55 How's Pink?
477 00:42:59 Yeah, she's all right.
478 00:43:01 You weren't strapped in, were you?
479 00:43:03 -I was getting there. -Well, you should've already been there.
480 00:43:07 Mother Nature doesn't wait for anyone. You know that, Jess.
481 00:43:10 It was a storm. It doesn't matter.
482 00:43:12 You have to manage it. You're just lucky you got through this one.
483 00:43:16 It was so wild, Ben. I thought we were gonna go all the way around.
484 00:43:19 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
485 00:43:44 Oh, it's Ben. Let's go.
486 00:43:46 Ben! We just had word Jess went through her first storm. Any injuries or damage?
487 00:43:50 We aren't taking any questions, but Jess has a blog at this address.
488 00:43:55 Diversion 101.
489 00:43:59 It's not that hard, Ben.
490 00:44:00 Is there anything you can add? Ben, excuse me. Excuse me! Just one sec. She's going through--
491 00:44:05 -Wait! Wait, Ben, sorry. -Jimmy, hold this.
492 00:44:14 An albatross, one of the only living things you see in the middle of the ocean.
493 00:44:17 They've been watched by sailors throughout history.
494 00:44:20 I think I caught a fish!
495 00:44:25 Okay.
496 00:44:37 Ooh! Okay.
497 00:44:41 Come over here! Can you see it?
498 00:44:47 Oh! Hello.
499 00:44:49 -My turn!
500 00:44:51 All right! Tom, grub's up!
501 00:44:54 -Yup. -Here you go.
502 00:44:57 -Eat up! -Thank you.
503 00:45:01 Morning!
504 00:45:04 Ben? Here you go.
505 00:45:06 I don't eat breakfast.
506 00:45:09 Uh, well, don't then, but it's here if you want it.
507 00:45:12 Want to write something?
508 00:45:41 Jess, I got into Sydney Uni!
509 00:45:44 Oh, my gosh! Em, that's fantastic! Congratulations, you did it!
510 00:45:49 I should warn you, Hannah's already gunning for my bed.
511 00:45:51 Right.
512 00:45:53 Oh, you'll be gone before I get back.
513 00:45:56 Yeah, I'll still run the blog, though.
514 00:45:58 Jess, I won four medals at the swimming carnival!
515 00:46:01 Wow, Han! That's amazing! I wish I could have been there.
516 00:46:05 And guess what? Tom has a date.
517 00:46:08 -Why would you-- -What? With who?
518 00:46:12 -Jess! -I want the phone!
519 00:46:14 I don't, I don't! -I don't know what-- -Yes, he does!
520 00:46:17 -I'm telling her! -He does! He does!
521 00:46:20 I'm talking to her and I'm telling her who it is!
522 00:46:23 I don't have-- I don't have a date.
523 00:46:24 -He does! -I don't have a date.
524 00:46:36 Snap.
525 00:46:43 -Go on, what do you got? -Boogie board!
526 00:46:46 -What? A boogie board?
527 00:46:49 You'll be shocked to hear that Hannah's riled up on sugar.
528 00:46:54 Well, she's not the only one. And it's not even Christmas here yet.
529 00:46:58 -Oh, is Em around? -Yeah, hold on!
530 00:47:02 Em.
531 00:47:05 Hey, Jess. Merry Christmas!
532 00:47:07 Merry Christmas!
533 00:47:10 A Grow Your Own Friend!
534 00:47:12 Aw, thank you, Em, it's just what I need.
535 00:47:15 -Yeah, I hear she's a great listener.
536 00:47:18 -Hey, my turn! -Oh, here's Dad.
537 00:47:20 Merry Christmas, love. Hey, I hear you've got a new mate.
538 00:47:24 What have you two got planned for tomorrow then?
539 00:47:26 Oh, well, I'm hosting, uh, but my guests are a little quieter than yours.
540 00:47:30 -That's pretty cool, Hannah.
541 00:47:31 That sounds great! Mind if I come to yours?
542 00:47:35 Jess! I forgot. Find the leeks bag.
543 00:47:38 Do you hear that? Leeks bag.
544 00:47:50 Ben!
545 00:47:53 Merry Christmas! Yeah.
546 00:47:56 Come on in.
547 00:47:58 Merry Christmas, Ben!
548 00:48:00 -Merry Christmas, Ben! -Yeah.
549 00:48:04 Merry Christmas, mate.
550 00:48:07 -There you are. -Oh, thanks.
551 00:48:12 Oh, I love them. Thank you, Tom.
552 00:48:19 All right, it's a bit loud. I'm gonna go now.
553 00:48:23 Everybody say goodbye to Jess!
554 00:48:25 -We love you! -Yeah, see you, Jess!
555 00:48:27 Tom, music!
556 00:48:29 Yup.
557 00:48:32 -Take this. -Yeah. Cheers.
558 00:48:40 All right, food's on the table! Come on, you lot.
559 00:48:54 Hope you're hungry!
560 00:48:55 Right, cracker time, Han, come on. Big pull!
561 00:49:00 -Sorry, Ben. -Ben.
562 00:49:07 Ben, what do you usually do for Christmas?
563 00:49:11 Nothing.
564 00:49:13 What about your family?
565 00:49:16 Oh. Uh, don't have one.
566 00:49:38 -Merry Christmas. -For me?
567 00:49:41 Open it, open it!
568 00:49:51 Thank you.
569 00:49:54 Ben, why is Cape Horn such a big deal?
570 00:49:59 That is some wicked sailing.
571 00:50:02 See, that's where the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans meet,
572 00:50:06 so you get these powerful winds, these churning currents,
573 00:50:11 these humongous waves as the oceans smash together.
574 00:50:17 That's why that passage is so sinister.
575 00:50:22 It's absolutely littered with a long-lost trail of fingertips.
576 00:50:31 -Uh, Ben? Uh, could you maybe be a little less excited about our daughter doing something sinister?
577 00:50:36 All right.
578 00:50:38 We talking fast sailing?
579 00:50:42 -Wicked fast.
580 00:50:44 -Oh, my.
581 00:51:06 Look how fast she's going. Bloody hell.
582 00:51:17 Come on!
583 00:51:18 We just rounded the Everest of the ocean, Cape Horn,
584 00:51:21 and I am happy to report it was smooth sailing.
585 00:51:24 And so cool!
586 00:51:26 I, uh-- I just-- I just can't believe it.
587 00:51:28 It's like we've passed our biggest challenge.
588 00:51:46 Do you hear that?
589 00:51:49 It's the sound of nothing.
590 00:51:52 Nothing at all.
591 00:51:56 There's no wind or waves.
592 00:51:59 It's been days.
593 00:52:10 You know where I am.
594 00:52:23 I'm gonna sail around the world and I'm hiring you as my coach.
595 00:52:27 Tell your parents there's plenty of coaches at the sailing school.
596 00:52:35 I don't sail anymore.
597 00:52:37 Because of the Millennium Cup, I know.
598 00:52:42 But if you help the youngest person in history
599 00:52:45 sail solo around the world,
600 00:52:47 people will let go of what happened with Matt Turner.
601 00:52:50 They might, but I won't.
602 00:52:56 Hey, why-- why do you want to do this, anyway?
603 00:53:03 You know, there have been more people in space than have sailed around the world.
604 00:53:08 I didn't even know it was something you can do, but you can, and I want to.
605 00:53:13 'Cause I'm an adventurer.
606 00:53:18 You like sailing.
607 00:53:20 Circumnavigating the globe is a whole different thing, mate.
608 00:53:23 Well, that's what I want to find out for myself.
609 00:53:29 You're gonna do this no matter what I say, aren't you?
610 00:53:34 If I was going to agree to this, I'm not gonna treat you special,
611 00:53:38 'cause it doesn't matter out there.
612 00:53:41 I'll only treat you how I treat myself.
613 00:53:51 It freaks me out.
614 00:54:17 -That's it. Come on. -Okay.
615 00:54:20 -Ben, you've barely slept in days, mate. -Take a break.
616 00:54:23 -Oh, nah. No, no. I'm good.
617 00:54:26 Just, um, waiting on these logs.
618 00:54:29 What is Jess doing?
619 00:55:17 Jess?
620 00:55:18 You've been going backwards for hours, mate.
621 00:55:21 Yeah, I was asleep.
622 00:55:23 So you didn't set the alarms?
623 00:55:26 Well, barely moved in a week, how would I know we're going backwards?
624 00:55:29 Again, that's why you set the alarms, mate!
625 00:55:32 Yeah, okay, chill out.
626 00:55:33 "Chill out"? Hey, this is dangerous, okay?
627 00:55:37 This is when things go wrong, when people get hurt,
628 00:55:39 when people neglect their responsibilities!
629 00:55:42 And you, if you keep on like this, you're gonna get yourself killed!
630 00:55:46 Yeah? Well, you'd know!
631 00:55:49 Oi! What's going on?
632 00:55:56 You're right, Jess.
633 00:55:58 Yeah.
634 00:56:00 I need to chill out.
635 00:56:08 Jess?
636 00:56:18 There's no wind, and there's no waves,
637 00:56:22 and now there's no Ben.
638 00:56:25 And it's just me.
639 00:56:30 And I-- I can't get away from myself.
640 00:56:51 I still haven't moved.
641 00:56:54 Oh, thank God you picked up! What's going on, Jess?
642 00:56:59 Mum.
643 00:57:03 What is it?
644 00:57:09 It's okay. I'm here.
645 00:57:12 Get it out.
646 00:57:17 I'm so alone.
647 00:57:22 No, you're not.
648 00:57:26 I know how awful it is to feel like this.
649 00:57:35 I can't tell you when the wind will pick up,
650 00:57:42 it will.
651 00:57:45 Just as it has done
652 00:57:47 for every sailor before you.
653 00:57:57 Do you remember the song I used to sing to you at night?
654 00:58:00 Yeah.
655 00:58:03 I want you to search for the brightest star in the sky.
656 00:58:08 And every time you look at it,
657 00:58:17 staring at that same star.
658 00:58:23 I'm with you.
659 00:58:28 Okay?
660 00:58:30 Yeah, okay.
661 00:58:37 I love you, Jess.
662 00:58:38 I love you too.
663 00:59:45 Hi.
664 00:59:48 Sorry I haven't been here much.
665 00:59:52 I've been avoiding a lot.
666 00:59:59 Mmm, the truth is that living your dream is hard.
667 01:00:04 And right now it's really hard.
668 01:00:08 I've been crying for hours.
669 01:00:11 I'm tired.
670 01:00:13 I'm sore.
671 01:00:16 I can't properly stretch my legs.
672 01:00:22 I miss my family.
673 01:00:28 I miss them a lot.
674 01:00:45 Ah, but through it all,
675 01:00:46 I've tried to be this-- this tough, stoic explorer.
676 01:00:57 I'm not always fine, or strong, or fearless.
677 01:01:03 Phew! "Fearless." I'm often terrified!
678 01:01:07 And I doubt myself.
679 01:01:13 I think a lot about giving up.
680 01:01:20 But that's okay.
681 01:01:22 It's okay.
682 01:01:27 'Cause there's-- there's strength in being yourself.
683 01:01:32 that's as hard as climbing any mountain.
684 01:01:39 You know, I think there's bravery
685 01:01:43 in admitting that you're not okay.
686 01:01:48 Oh, God, it's scary.
687 01:01:56 Not that I'd know, Mum and Dad.
688 01:02:06 Yeah, I'm tough and I'm struggling.
689 01:02:10 And living my dream is-- is-- is hard,
690 01:02:14 but it's so worth it.
691 01:02:16 -Even the bad days.
692 01:03:42 Pink, you found the wind!
693 01:04:49 G'day!
694 01:04:59 Do you mind? Recycling's over there. It's bin day.
695 01:05:55 -Jessy!
696 01:05:56 Hi, Dad. Um, any word from Ben?
697 01:05:59 He's tracking you from his boat.
698 01:06:03 He's okay.
699 01:06:04 He just needs a minute, love.
700 01:06:07 If this weren't nonstop,
701 01:06:09 we would be pulling into port for repairs, no question.
702 01:06:12 I mean, leaking on a boat is not what you want.
703 01:06:15 But as long as we've got a clear shot and an easy run back home,
704 01:06:19 it should hold.
705 01:06:21 Pink's designed to correct herself if we roll over,
706 01:06:24 as long as there are no leaks.
707 01:06:26 That's what Ben would say too, I reckon.
708 01:06:29 A lot of rips out there today. Know what you're doing?
709 01:06:32 -Go with 'em.
710 01:06:33 -Don't fight it.
711 01:06:36 The ocean'll always be stronger than you and every other being.
712 01:06:41 If you wanna sail, better learn to get along with Mother Nature.
713 01:06:45 She doesn't mean you any harm,
714 01:06:46 she's just doing her thing and sometimes we get in the way.
715 01:06:50 Come on then.
716 01:06:52 Let's get in there.
717 01:07:27 Jessica, this is the Prime Minister of Australia.
718 01:07:31 -You can call me K-Rudd if you-- -Gimme this.
719 01:07:34 Hey, Tom. What's up?
720 01:07:36 To be fair, the prime minister has been talking about you.
721 01:07:39 Em, you're home!
722 01:07:40 Just for the week.
723 01:07:42 It's crazy, everyone at uni knows who you are.
724 01:07:44 -Oh, God. I don't know if I want that. -Well, then brace yourself.
725 01:07:46 That picture of you rounding the cape is in newspapers all over the world.
726 01:07:51 Everyone's cheering for you.
727 01:07:53 So please start doing your hair.
728 01:07:55 Oh, come on. I have a fork for a brush.
729 01:08:00 How's uni? Any new boys in Sydney?
730 01:08:02 Maybe!
731 01:08:04 Oh, my God, who?
732 01:08:08 Hey, uh, could you get Mum on the phone?
733 01:08:11 Now?
734 01:08:25 Bad weather on the way. Really bad. Storms.
735 01:08:29 "Storms," plural?
736 01:08:31 They're even coming right at me from Antarctica. Five times the size of the last storm.
737 01:08:35 I think you might have to pull into port.
738 01:08:38 Quit? No. No, I can't. Not now.
739 01:08:41 I'm not sure you're gonna have an option here. Let me check the sky.
740 01:08:56 Why-- Why are you doing this to me? Why couldn't you just give me a break?
741 01:09:13 The front's already generating gale force winds
742 01:09:15 of 70 knots, with a 40-foot swell.
743 01:09:20 So will Jessica pull into port but get disqualified in the process,
744 01:09:24 or keep going?
745 01:09:25 Thanks, Craig. What about cutting through Bass Straight?
746 01:09:29 It's an option, and could shield her from the worst of the weather.
747 01:09:32 Though she'd miss the fourth cape. But she'll live, Susie.
748 01:09:36 That's what we're talking about here, isn't it? Her survival.
749 01:09:40 Australian teen sailor Jessica Watson has been confronted by another challenge in her attempt to become the youngest ...
750 01:09:44 to circumnavigate the world.
751 01:09:59 You have nothing to be ashamed of.
752 01:10:01 Even the most experienced sailors would pull in too.
753 01:10:04 Yeah, even Ben would.
754 01:10:06 Jules.
755 01:10:08 Yeah, but I'm gonna let everyone down.
756 01:10:10 You're not letting anyone down. -Have you even seen your comments?
757 01:10:13 What comments?
758 01:10:14 On your blog.
759 01:10:17 -Told you how to do this. No, you didn't.
760 01:10:20 Yes, I did.
761 01:10:22 Okay, open your laptop.
762 01:10:23 Click the link on to any post.
763 01:10:25 Scroll down and watch.
764 01:10:30 I can't wait to check how you're doing every morning.
765 01:10:32 You're stronger than anyone I know.
766 01:10:41 There are 14 children on the council estate
767 01:10:44 who borrow my computer to follow your video diary.
768 01:10:48 Oh, you are such an inspiration to these kids.
769 01:10:51 I am going to climb the Seven Summits.
770 01:10:53 Thank you for making me see it doesn't have to just be a dream.
771 01:10:57 I'm 12 years old and I'm also dyslexic.
772 01:11:00 Following your videos has made me think
773 01:11:03 that I can also reach my dream and one day become a pilot.
774 01:11:07 Thanks for making us part of your journey, Captain Watson.
775 01:11:12 I'm gonna call you back.
776 01:11:16 We are so close.
777 01:11:29 One, two, three.
778 01:11:31 We love you, Jessica!
779 01:11:34 See you in Sydney!
780 01:11:43 There has to be a way.
781 01:12:33 I just want to get her home.
782 01:12:44 Okay, so I've done the numbers over and over, and there is another option.
783 01:12:50 I could outrun the western storm.
784 01:12:52 -No, not gonna happen. -Ben, you're back?
785 01:12:54 Yeah. About that, Jess, I shouldn't have lost it.
786 01:12:57 I let fear take over, and I'm sorry.
787 01:12:59 No. No, no, no, I'm sorry.
788 01:13:03 -Look, I--
789 01:13:04 What I meant was that I'm not him and this isn't the Millennium Cup,
790 01:13:07 and you're not gonna lose me, Ben. You're stuck with me.
791 01:13:10 Uh, storm incoming, remember?
792 01:13:11 Yeah. So the worst of the storms are gonna hit in 72 hours,
793 01:13:15 so what if I go through them?
794 01:13:17 What? These are not the kind of storms you weather.
795 01:13:19 No, I don't want to weather them, I want to move with them by not using the drogue.
796 01:13:23 Jess, you have to. The drogue's what keeps the boat stable.
797 01:13:27 Yeah, but in the Pacific storms, it slowed us down like an anchor.
798 01:13:30 Yeah, that's the point!
799 01:13:32 Yeah, but then we were battered by these waves 'cause Pink fought them.
800 01:13:37 I mean, you said we shouldn't fight Mother Nature.
801 01:13:41 So let's work with her.
802 01:13:44 Let Pink surf.
803 01:13:46 Wait, she's right.
804 01:13:49 If you stand in front of the wave, it knocks you down,
805 01:13:51 but if you surf with them, it doesn't.
806 01:13:54 Most of the time.
807 01:13:55 Yeah, look, without the drogue,
808 01:13:57 you're gonna be up against 60-foot waves, Jess.
809 01:14:00 Yeah, so instead of getting battered by 'em,
810 01:14:03 we'd ride over them.
811 01:14:04 Pink being small would actually help.
812 01:14:06 Is Pink up to this?
813 01:14:08 You only just patched that crack in the bulkhead. Will it hold?
814 01:14:11 You're also exhausted, Jessy, and the storm sounds like a marathon.
815 01:14:16 I'm so close.
816 01:14:17 Hey, don't worry about that.
817 01:14:19 Making it home alive is more important right now.
818 01:14:22 You're gonna have to pull in.
819 01:14:28 I agree with Ben. Be safe.
820 01:14:30 No! Cut through the straight.
821 01:14:32 Yeah, I like that option. I like the surfer one.
822 01:14:47 I-- I don't know. I really don't.
823 01:14:50 I-- I barely sail offshore,
824 01:14:52 but you, God, you've sailed around the world.
825 01:14:56 Look, you know the ocean, you know your boat.
826 01:14:59 I trust that you know what's best.
827 01:15:07 Your Dad's right.
828 01:15:09 You're the captain of that ship.
829 01:15:12 We will support whatever decision you make.
830 01:15:17 Thanks, Dad. Thanks, Mum.
831 01:15:20 I love you.
832 01:15:22 We love you, Jessy.
833 01:15:23 Ben, my gut is telling me to go through these storms,
834 01:15:27 and I'm not gonna use the drogue.
835 01:15:29 It won't be easy.
836 01:15:31 You'll need to be calm, endure fatigue.
837 01:15:35 It's gonna last days.
838 01:15:37 I know.
839 01:15:38 I can do it.
840 01:15:40 I've got this, Ben.
841 01:15:42 As long as you understand the consequences.
842 01:15:45 I do.
843 01:15:48 You're the captain, Captain.
844 01:15:55 -Pizza for Watson! -Pizzas!
845 01:16:07 Tom, can we get some more information, please?
846 01:16:10 Tom, just a quick second.
847 01:16:13 Everyone right to go? Okay, brief statement.
848 01:16:16 Jess will be tackling the storm,
849 01:16:18 continuing on in her attempt
850 01:16:26 Surely, she should pull in.
851 01:16:28 The captain has made her decision. No further questions, thank you.
852 01:16:32 Hannah!
853 01:16:34 Emily, can we get a quick statement, please? Emily?
854 01:17:05 Australians have seen particularly terrifying storms ravaging the coastlines.
855 01:17:09 The timing of the storm front is especially devastating for Jessica Watson,
856 01:17:14 whose nonstop, solo, and unassisted circumnavigation
857 01:17:17 is one cape shy of being completed.
858 01:17:35 Hold on, crew.
859 01:18:05 We got this, Pink!
860 01:18:08 Hey, Ben.
861 01:18:13 Isobars are getting close together.
862 01:18:15 What does that mean?
863 01:18:23 The storm cells have merged.
864 01:18:25 The three fronts have morphed into one giant storm.
865 01:18:29 Now, one can only imagine how Jessica must be feeling right now
866 01:18:33 as she's about to face her toughest challenge.
867 01:19:34 Jess, we're all here.
868 01:19:36 Hey. Hey!
869 01:19:37 Could you talk to me? I need distracting.
870 01:19:40 I love earthworms!
871 01:19:41 Nick!
872 01:19:43 Nick, the boy's name's Nick.
873 01:19:44 Um, what boy? What boy?
874 01:19:46 And what if I don't make it?
875 01:19:48 Not an option, mate.
876 01:19:50 Hey, tell you what, Jess.
877 01:19:51 You get back in one piece,
878 01:19:53 I'll take Bowie out of the docks and sail to Sydney to meet you.
879 01:19:56 Deal?
880 01:19:57 You'll sail? Like, open waters?
881 01:20:00 Yeah, yeah, I might even sail home to New Zealand. But you gotta get here first.
882 01:20:04 Yeah, okay. Deal.
883 01:20:11 Jessy? Jessy, you still there?
884 01:20:13 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Might've had a point not wanting me to do this, Dad.
885 01:20:18 I'm scared!
886 01:20:20 Oh. Oh, Hannah, me too.
887 01:20:22 But I chose to be here, yeah?
888 01:20:24 I chose to be here and I'm never gonna regret it.
889 01:20:28 Nothing ventured, nothing gained, right?
890 01:20:33 -That's impossible. -What?
891 01:20:36 What's impossible? What's impossible?
892 01:20:37 -What? Tell me, quick! -Jess!
893 01:20:56 That's it, Pink. You're doing great.
894 01:21:27 Please, stop!
895 01:21:30 Please, let her go!
896 01:23:03 -Jess?
897 01:23:25 Mum?
898 01:23:29 Her emergency alarm went off.
899 01:23:37 15 feet underwater.
900 01:23:49 No.
901 01:23:50 No, she's all right.
902 01:23:53 Call her.
903 01:24:03 The phone loses signal in storms, remember?
904 01:24:06 -It's just the phone.
905 01:24:08 It's just the phone.
906 01:24:22 C-C-Come on, Jess, answer.
907 01:24:24 Okay.
908 01:24:26 -Jess! -Stop. -Jess, no! -Stop, Tom.
909 01:24:28 No!
910 01:24:43 -I got you.
911 01:24:49 It's all right.
912 01:25:19 -No. -Jules.
913 01:26:55 Jess?
914 01:26:58 We made it.
915 01:27:01 Pink saved me.
916 01:27:07 Jess?
917 01:27:08 Hi, Mum.
918 01:27:11 You don't know how good it is to hear your voice.
919 01:27:13 Oh, God.
920 01:27:16 Yours too.
921 01:27:19 Oh, God, you should see the sky right now.
922 01:27:22 Yeah? Pretty special?
923 01:27:25 Really special.
924 01:27:28 Jess, can you come home already? You're aging me!
925 01:27:33 Yeah.
926 01:27:36 I think I'm ready.
927 01:27:40 She did it.
928 01:27:41 She bloody did it! -Come here!
929 01:27:43 Come here!
930 01:27:47 You had us worried, Jessy.
931 01:27:56 -Are we rolling? -It's Hannah.
932 01:27:57 Everyone ready? You got the shot?
933 01:28:01 Jess has made it through the storm.
934 01:28:03 She suffered no serious injuries or damage and is on her way home.
935 01:28:12 -Yes! -All right.
936 01:28:13 All right. All right, all right, everyone, off the lawn!
937 01:28:16 All right, I'm trying to grow it.
938 01:31:20 Over 80,000 people crowd Sydney Harbor foreshore
939 01:31:24 to see Jessica Watson, the schoolgirl, rather, the remarkable young woman
940 01:31:28 arrive home after 210 days at sea,
941 01:31:33 a lesson in the power of inspiration,
942 01:31:36 and the impact that one courageous soul
943 01:31:39 can have on so many,
944 01:31:41 including me.
945 01:31:43 Here we go.
946 01:31:49 -3:33. -3:33.
947 01:31:51 Breaker, breaker, she's in. 3:33.
948 01:32:06 She did it.
949 01:32:09 Yeah!
950 01:32:12 Jess!
951 01:32:43 Jessica Watson crosses the line
952 01:32:52 Here! Come, look! Look who's there!
953 01:32:55 It's Jessica!
954 01:33:56 You're home!
955 01:33:58 You're really home!
956 01:34:15 There's some people who want to say hi.
957 01:34:17 -Oh! You got it.
958 01:34:19 Hey! Jess!
959 01:34:28 -Look at that! -Come on!
960 01:34:35 Welcome back, Jessica. What a remarkable achievement.
961 01:34:38 You've done our nation proud.
962 01:34:40 You now stand tall as Australia's newest hero.
963 01:34:48 It's so great to be home.
964 01:34:55 I don't consider myself a hero.
965 01:34:57 I'm just an ordinary girl who believed in her dream.
966 01:35:00 You don't have to be anyone special to achieve something like this,
967 01:35:03 you just have to find your dream, believe in it,
968 01:35:06 and work really hard.
969 01:35:08 Thank you for the amazing welcome.
