Other notable but incomplete circumnavigations include the one of Abby Sunderland.

Records claimed by virtue of being the youngest person to complete the voyage are not recognized by the World Sailing Speed Record Council. Therefore the strict routing rules of the WSSRC do not have to be followed for this list, it is enough to cross own path and in between cross all longitudes and the equator.
