Sonya Baumstein from Florida had to send out a distress call on June 13 and was rescued just a week after leaving a marina in Chosi, Japan, attempting to become the first woman to row solo across the Pacific.
She was trying to cross the 6,000k to San Francisco by September.
This lady is no stranger to adventure.
She trained for three years to row her little 23ft Icha all that way.
Prior to that, she'd kayaked from Washington State to Alaska and standup paddle-boarded across the 85k wide Bering Strait.
It was always a big ask Sonya and hopefully you'll succeed next time.
If you can dream it, you can do it...

Sonya Plans To Row Her Tiny Boat Six Thousand Miles Across the Pacific From Choshi, Japan To San Francisco...
Sonya Baumstein could have flown as most people do from Choshi, Japan to San Francisco, but no, she's the sort of twenty eight year old who likes a challenge and wasn't in a hurry. Which is fortunate because rowing the
six thousand nautical miles voyage in her specially designed little twenty three foot craft, described here, is going to take
more than a few days.
