- <p> With eleven other women, Dawn Riley was all at sea last
- week, but faring nicely. Maiden, the first entry in the
- Whitbread Round the World Race to have an all-female
- international crew, has won two of five legs, and is now on the
- final course from Florida to Britain. How do the sexes compare,
- nautically speaking? "Men are more gung-ho," says watch captain
- Riley, 25, the sole American and the most experienced hand
- aboard. "They like to jump and pull on things. They try to beat
- each other. We don't have that ego problem. Women think before
- they act." Sailor, beware.
