I grew up around family members who were either building wooden boats, piloting tugboats, roaring around in a speed boat, who knew the art of putting ship into bottles, boat blue prints, drawings and paintings, chatter regarding boats amongst other things and summers at the beach. However, life took a direction that meant I was not able to delve further into my passion for boats and being on the water.
However, I continued to engage my passion through my photography and art � including a port-folio on Port Adelaide some 26 years ago. This included black and white photography and renderings using different media and in colour and black and white.
When my son was in grade 5 his class had to put a picture of their hero on their reader cover. My son put a photocopy of a boat wreck I had illustrated from my Port Adelaide port folio...I was his hero of the day...and moved that he saw me as such. I have also had my own solo art exhibitions, been involved in mixed exhibitions and have done commission work. While I am working towards further academic work which will see me draw from the maritime arena, I am now embarking upon the putting together of a few mini photographic exhibitions and a few books.
The books will draw on my sailing experiences as well as others. I am at this stage predominantly sailing with Dis-Abel Sailing on a David Payne design yacht called Freedom and will expand on my experience by crewing on other yachts � both cruising and racing and becoming involved with Disable Sailing later this year. I am also involved replicas relojes with maintenance (light) on South Australia�s historical tall ship the Falie.
My first book I intend to have a focus on the uniqueness found only in the sailing world showcasing as much of the diversity as I can gather. That is, the stories within the story.

A Series of Articles

Ok... I've written a few articles (at least 3 for now) and to put them into context they are based on text from a book I am currently putting together pertaining to the Tall Ship Festival that occurred in Port Adelaide in August and September 2013. .....
