He is, however, working his way through his marine tickets on the way to his 3000 ton Captain’s license so we think Scotland might have to wait a little longer!

Peter loves to fish, rock climb, walk and has always been a keen sailor. He is hoping that 2012 will bring an opportunity to further his education as he prepares to take his Officer of the Watch modules in hopes of progressing in his career on yachts.
