Remembering the fun I have had over the years as a child sailing with my cousins and being close to the sea makes me feel special. The experiences sailing has given my family and I have been amazing. From being born my children have been strapped into a baby seat in the cockpit as we sailed along. I have sailed all over the world with some fantastic people and learned a lot from all of them.
Making friends makes life easy and its great to pass on what you've learnt through experience. For 20 years I have taught people of all ages and back grounds to scuba dive, nothing pleases me more than seeing enjoyment from listening to the excitement after a great dive when they have experienced the excitement of the underwater world.
