How old were you when you first stepped on a boat?
Seven (Manly Junior at WSC).
If money (and sailing ability) were no limit, what boat would you buy?
Heron, Laser and Hanse 50ft
What is your ultimate sailing goal?
To do well at top level regattas and to enjoy sailing with my family and friends.
Tell us the story behind the name of your Laser?
I just bought 'Peb' from Chrstine - I will think about a name. I also sail a Heron and my wife has crewed with me a few years and she named our Heron 'She Said Yes'. Maybe that would be a good name for the laser too!

Haven't seen the world's best toasties so wil let you know and looking forward to seeing what they are. Maybe Jalapenos.
