Inconsistent results, yet somehow light air maestro and National champion. Likes Earl Grey and fixing peoples’ boats in exhange for tea and cake. Enjoys sailing, mountainbiking, windsurfing and loitering around Moth blogs on the internets. Previously sailed National 12s. Under 21 champion in 2000 and 5th at the nationals in 2005 and various open meeting wins. Won award for services to the class in 2004 for documenting a homebuild online (before blogging was invented!) and kickstarting many more builds.
