She says,"When I decided to do the round-the-world race, my husband thought I was borerd because the children had left home.He was also worried because I had never sailed before I was not bored, but I had met some people who told me about the race.They had taken part in it, but they had only done one section, say, from New Zealand to Australia.I wanted to do the whole ten-month journey.

Before Molly left she did a lot of training, but it hadn' t prepared her for the worst weather which they experienced.She tells one story."One night the sea was very rough and it was very cold.I had gone downstairs when a huge wave smashed into the boat and injured two men on the deck.One of the men couldn' t move because he had broken his leg.They were taken to hospital by helicopter.That was the worst time.

By the end of October last year, she had raised more than $50, 000 for charity.
