60 Seconds With Mark Crowhurst

Kirk Marcolina

For our second instalment of our getting to know you game, we’re featuring Mark Crowhurst.

1. How old were you when you first stepped on a boat?

  • Too young to remember - I spent my youth on the water in one way or another.

2. If money (& sailing ability) were no limit, what boat would you buy? 

  • The Laser just 1 number newer than Andrew Cox's

3. What is your sailing goal? 

  • I have a vendetta to resolve after my last minute and dramatic loss in the Tyrell 2019.

4. If you could add any ingredient to our already world’s best toasties – what would it be?

  • Jalapeno

5. What are your second/third favourite hobbies (obviously assuming sailing holds the #1 spot)

  • I didn't know I was meant to have other hobbies?

6. Describe what you do for work in less than 5 words? 

  • Computer Programming Consultant

7. What’s the maximum number of toilet rolls you’ve held in your household post 01 March 2020?

  • I'm not sure what the maximum is, but I can tell you what the minimum was...

8. What’s your go to Covid-19 dish?  

  • Pappardelle Lamb Ragu!

9. What life skill are you committing to learning whilst in lock-down? 

  • At this stage, the main improvement looks to be my Scrabble skills. Hopefully someone else's answer to this question gives me some inspiration.

Mark’s been relaxing on boats since an early age.
