60 Seconds With Geoff Boscoe…
Kirk Marcolina
1. How old were you when you first stepped on a boat?
Aged 8 in a Manly Junior called Good Times (see photo). We sailed out of Mosman Sailing Club. I was the crew and had no idea what I was doing (mostly still don't!) and neither did the skipper. I don't think we even finished a race that first season and things did not improve much from there
2. If money (& sailing ability) were no limit, what boat would you buy?
I'd be happy with Andrew Cox's most recently traded-in Laser, plus a tender for it from Perini Navi
3. What is your sailing goal?
To get a ground floor rack position at DBSC
4. Tell us the back story to your laser's name?
Think Big was a statement of intent. Unfortunately the actions have not lived up to the intent
5. If you could add any ingredient to our already world’s best toasties – what would it be?
I'm missing them just as they were. Hot chips on the side would take them to the next level
6. What are your second/ third favourite hobbies (obviously assuming sailing holds the #1 spot).
Other activities starting with S, namely Skiing, Surfing, Skydiving
7. Describe what you do for work in less than 5 words?
Headhunter
8. What’s the first international flight you are going to book post Covid-19? And why?
I would like to visit Japan with my wife (Dawn) to celebrate our upcoming milestone wedding anniversary
9. What’s your favourite TV show, movie, and or book?
My favourite book is usually the one I am reading - right now it's a biography of Leonardo da Vinci by Walter Isaacson
10. Tell us something interesting about yourself that members of the club don’t know?
It's my 25-year wedding anniversary in December
