　　BIG storms. High waves. Technical failures. Loneliness. After battling hard times and danger for over nine months, British teenager Mike Perham made history last month as the youngest person to sail solo (单独地) around the world.

　　The 17­year­old made the record after he cleared the Panama Canal (巴拿马运河) and then sailed through the Caribbean and home across the Atlantic.

　　Mike is only three months younger than Zac Sunderland，the 17­year­old Amencan boy who had taken the crown as the youngest solo around­the­world sailor in July.
