Sharon Adams was the first woman to sail alone across the Pacific Ocean

Join Dan Johnson on Radiozine as he introduces you to the first woman to sail alone across the Pacific Ocean.

Sharon Sites Adams was the first woman to sail the Pacific Ocean from Yokohama, Japan to San Diego, California in 1969 and she shares that journey through her book, "Pacific Lady: the first woman to sail alone across the Pacific Ocean."

As a result of her adventures, Sharon says, "My stories don't stop"
