Ice Maiden









Here is a great gift, a vivid picture to inspire every working woman and any one else who struggles against blind prejudice. The first all female crew to circumnavigate.
A very high quality painting, prints that are a superb match and a piece of yachting history, published by Solomon & Whitbead, co signed by the yacht's captain, Tracy Edwards.
The yacht "Maiden" shown the day she first entered iceberg waters in the Southern Ocean. Skipper the petite Tracy Edwards, defied the critics by raising the money for her boat and her challenge in the Whitbread Round the World Race. She defied them again by taking an all woman crew. They scoffed, the women will fall out long before the voyage is done. She defied them again by winning 2 legs of the race with what was clearly not the best, or a money is no object boat and again by returning to a deserved hero's reception.
