I started moth sailing at the end of 2008 with his Mistress Mk1 (now known as the Super mistress). My passion for these boats grows on a daily basis and there is never a moment when Im not thinking about something moth related from control systems to the evolution of foils and hull shapes.

Past sailing has been in Cadet, Enterprise, Firefly, Laser, 420, 470, Windsurfing (course racing), Kitesurfing
