Sally Kettle set out to row an ocean with her partner Marcus, a strapping six-footer - she wound up making the Atlantic crossing with her mother Sarah, a diminutive gardener. Together they became the first mother and daughter crew to make any ocean crossing by rowing boat. Eighteen months later Sally set out to break more records as the skipper of first women's four to cross an ocean before tragedy struck and her crew struggled for survival in the harshest Atlantic storm conditions ever recorded.

Despite not making front-page news, Sally's leadership secured all of the project finance required to cross oceans through individual and corporate sponsorship and also raised over three hundred thousand pounds for charity.

As relevant to corporate teams and community groups alike, the lessons from Sally's adventures are about life and relationships. How people cope with everyday challenges in ever changing circumstances and how people do the funniest things.

With over five years' speaking experience Sally has a natural, buoyant and engaging presence, which leaves her audiences uplifted, amazed and inspired.

Sally's experiences have recently been captured and published in the book Sally's Odd at Sea.
