Katie Spotz's Fascinating Online Rowboat Journey

The Awl introduces us to Katie Spotz's fantastic blog, chronicling her quest to become the youngest person ever to row across the Atlantic Ocean.

So how does it feel to be smack dab in the middle of an ocean? Well, it's the same limitless sky, same deep blue waters, same endless horizon, while sitting in the same bright yellow rowboat. But today, no sunset or wildlife could be more exciting than seeing the half-way point tick by on my GPS.

It's the sort of online diary you can get easily lost in, plus it has the occasional interesting photo of giant tuna swimming around her boat.
