Read their stories in this special series of articles by 成人快手 News Online. From fishing on trawlers to surfing the waves in their 60s, South West women have strong links to the sea. The 成人快手 has compiled stories from six women on how the ocean around them affects their lives professionally and emotionally. They include harrowing tales of crossing the Atlantic solo, to helping save lives and protecting sea life.
