As I have said in the thread that Mike links to, she was provided with a boat that was unsuitable - quite different to the boat that the Australian young lady sailed round the block with. One is a Ford Mondeo and the other is a rally car. The timing was also unwise - she was in the Roaring Forties in June - midwinter. Most round the world races time their visit to those waters for summer.
