"After surviving 120km/h winds, multiple knock-downs, six months alone at sea and even a collision with a freighter on a test run, Jessica is back in Australian waters, although wild conditions off Tasmania this week whipped up frightening 10-metre waves and forced her into a holding pattern near Bass Strait."

"On land, her progress has been equally remarkable. Last month, her agent signed a deal with News Corporation valued at $700,000, far in excess of what most celebrities get paid for their stories."
