Self taught sailor whose first sailing experience was a solo sail from Peterhead Scotland to Liverpool with lots off learning along the way. Not the first Adventure I once tried to ride a horse from Istanbul to Mongolia but a bad winter and spring and invading Russians army put a stop to that. Never one to do things the simple way the harder the better.
