Neuschäfer is the recipient of the CCA's Blue Water Medal, awarded for 'meritorious seamanship and adventure upon the sea'.

The CCA praised Neuschäfer's 'tremendous effort, determination, and skill' exhibited during her 235-day solo circumnavigation, going so far as scraping barnacles from her Cape George 36 Minnehaha's hull by hand in the Southern Ocean.
