Ep. 15: Doina Cornell of Cornell Sailing and Author of Child of the Sea Interviewed by Linus Wilson

We spoke to Doina Cornell about the rallies organized by Cornell Sailing and the SV Aventura's recent attempts and crossing of the Northwest Passage.  She also tells us about her book Child of the Sea about her childhood circumnavigating the globe in a sailboat her parents built.
