Susan Meckley is a solo sailor and adventurer who completed a thirty-four-day ocean voyage from Puerto Vallarta to Hilo, Hawaii at the age of seventy-two in a thirty-two-foot sailboat equipped with only a forty-watt ham radio. On Art Bell's programs, her remarkable story of endurance and self-reliance on the open Pacific inspired listeners with its testament to courage at any age.
