(CNN) – Teen sailor Abby Sunderland is on her way back to California today. She was trying to become the youngest person to sail around the world when she says a rogue wave hit her boat in the Indian Ocean, snapping her mast and ending the trip. After her rescue, many were questioning why her parents would allow her to attempt to sail around the world by herself. Our Kiran Chetry climbed aboard a boat similar to Abby's to see how difficult it is to be solo at sea.
