A LONDON, England (CNN) - The youngest person to sail solo around the world returned home Thursday from his 30,000-mile, 282-day ocean journey. Mike Perham, 17, sailed into Lizard Point in Cornwall, the southernmost point in Britain, at 9:47 a. m., his race team said. "It feels absolutely brilliant," Mike told CNN by phone hours before crossing the finish line. "I'm really, really excited to be going across the line at last. It doesn't feel like long since 1 crossed it first." Mike set off on his round-the-world trip on November 18, . He has been m, single-handedly, though a support team has been sailing next to him along the way. The teen has now achieved the title of Youngest Sailor to Circumnavigate the Globe Solo, according to the Guinness World Records. Mike learned how to sail when he was seven years old from his father, Peter and at age 14, he railed across the Atlantic alone. The teenager's school - which Mike describes as "highly supportive" of his trip - has redesigned his coursework to fit in with his trip. It also gave him some coursework to do during "quiet moments", according to Mike's website. There haven't been many of those quiet moments. Repeated autopilot failures forced him to stop for repairs in Portugal, the Canary Islands, South Africa, and twice in Australia, according to his website. Bad weather in the Southern Ocean - between Australia and Antarctica forced Mike to battle 50ft waves and 57 mph winds. He said at one point, a "freak (反常的,怪异的)wave" picked up the boat and turned it on its side.' "My feet were on the ceiling at the time," he told CNN. "That was a really hairy moment, and I was certainly thinking, 'Why am I here?' But we took the sails off and the day after I thought, 'This is brilliant! '" Mike describes his father as his biggest hero, always supportive of what he wanted to achieve. Peter Perham said he wasn't too worried about his son facing dangerous situations at sea, as long as he knew what to do and stayed safe.56. Mike Perham returned to Britain in _. A. August B.

Thirteen months ago, in a Florida library he took a book off the shelf with the previous owner's name, Miss Hollis Maynell, and took great interest in the notes in the margin. The soft handwriting reflected a thoughtful soul and insightful mind. With time and effort he located her address. He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her to correspond. During the following days the two grew to know each other through the mail. John requested a photograph, but she refused. She felt that if he really eared, it wouldn't matter what she looked like. Later they scheduled their first meeting-7:00 p.m. at Grand Central Station in New York. "You'll recognize me," she wrote, "by the red rose Ill be wearing on my lapel (翻领)." So at 7:00 he was in the station looking for the girl with the red rose. A young woman in a green suit was coming toward him. Her figure was long and slim and her eyes were blue. Almost uncontrollably he made one step closer to her, and just at this moment he saw Hollis Maynell - a woman well past 40. The girl was walking quickly away. He felt as though he split in two, so keen was his desire to follow her, and yet so deep was his longing for the woman whose spirit had truly accompanied him and upheld his own. He did not hesitate. He squared his shoulders and said, "I'm John, and you must be Miss Maynell. I am so glad you could meet me; may I take you to dinner?" The woman smiled, "I don't know what this is about, son," she answered, "but the young lady in the green suit begged me to wear this rose on my coat. And she said if you were to ask me to dinner, I should tell you that she is waiting for you in the restaurant across the street. She said it was some kind of test!"61.
