David Scott Cowper is a British seafarer who holds several records. He was the first man to sail solo around the world in both directions, and the first person to circumnavigate the world via the Northwest Passage singlehandedly.
Jane Maufe is the four times great-niece of Sir John Franklin, who was lost trying to chart and navigate a route through the Northwest Passage in 1845. Jane and David achieved the first ever transit through the most northerly route, the first by a woman.
