MISS MOLLY · ON THE WATERwhere it begins.
Some people find
their way to the water.
Molly built a life on it.
San Francisco is more than a home port. It’s the thread that runs through Captain Molly’s story—from an early connection to the water to a working life spent sharing the Bay.
These days, that might mean helping someone land their first fish, supporting a swimmer across open water, or finding a quiet moment beneath the Golden Gate.
