Jessica despite all the short comings did complete her circumnavigation. That no one can take away.
However this movie does fall short. I hope folks are not watching this and thinking about sailing. Almost everything is wrong here. Thankfully she did make it. But wow luck was on her side for sure. I for one don't hold judgement to her parents. After all it is her life. Watch this movie, then do some research on Jessica. She does have a great story to tell. She has several interviews and a book. I would advise anyone looking to sail on the high seas to know that you can't fight back against the ocean, she will always win.
