"One Mom, Two Teens, No Exit"

Each year, the membership of BWI conducts a writing contest recognizing top marine journalists around the world. Discover Boating is a BWI Supporting Member and sponsors the writing contest awards within the Boating Adventures category. This year the 17th Annual BWI Writing Contest was held, and Discover Boating was pleased to announce their 1st Place Winner, “One Mom, Two Teens, No Exit” written by Tania Aebi, youngest woman to sail around the world alone at 21 and author of an international best-seller. Tania was recognized for her inspirational, family bonding story that first attracted readers in the March 2009 issue of Boat U.S. Magazine. This moving story was created from first-hand experience when she set sail to the South Pacific with her two teens in hopes of giving them a world view and different sense of responsibility, all while spending time together.
