Jesse Martin
Jesse Martin, OAM (born 26 August 1981) is an Australian sailor who in 1999 became the youngest person to circumnavigate the globe solo, non-stop, and unassisted, taking the record from David Dicks, who was 24 days younger when he completed his circumnavigation, but had obtained assistance. Martin's journey in the S&S 34 sloop ''Lionheart-Mistral'' took approximately 11 months. He chronicled his adventures in the book ''Lionheart: A Journey of the Human Spirit'', and his story was made into a documentary, ''Lionheart: The Jesse Martin Story''.
=="Lionheart" voyage==
At 17, Martin departed Melbourne for a world voyage on his yacht, ''Lionheart''. He arrived back in Melbourne on 31 October 1999 and sailed into the record books at age 18. The entire journey covered 328 days and in all. Since Martin's voyage, the World Sailing Speed Record Council (WSSRC) have discontinued the "youngest" category〔(" Other Kinds of Sailing Records" ), World Sailing Speed Record Council. Retrieved 22 June 2010.〕 and no longer recognise "human condition" records.〔Townsend, Allie (21 June 2010). ("Should There Be Age Limits on Thrill Seeking" ), ''Time''. Retrieved 22 June 2010.〕 Martin remains the youngest solo non-stop unassisted sailor to cross opposite points of the globe in a single round the world voyage. His voyage inspired other young sailors, including Jessica Watson, to attempt similar circumnavigations.
The voyage was sponsored by Mistral, the Melbourne newspaper the ''Herald Sun'', the Sandringham Yacht Club, Kodak, REV milk and Autohelm. Mistral was the major sponsor, donating over A$300,000 on the conditions that the name was placed on the sail, prominently and repeatedly on the boat, on the bottom of Martin's weekly newspaper column, and on Martin's clothing.〔Martin, Jesse (2000).
