"Teenage adventurer Jessica Watson will begin her solo round-the-world sailing attempt this Sunday, after days of delays caused by Sydney's recent windy weather.
The 16-year-old will sail through Sydney Heads at 9.30am (AEDT) in her yacht Ella's Pink Lady, with well-wishers expected to throng the harbour and its foreshore to send her off.
Her departure has been delayed by strong winds that have battered Sydney in recent days.
...
Jessica is attempting to become the youngest person to sail solo around the world."
