    Elderly Scot living in a fishing village at the entrance to Guanabara Bay in Rio.
    With a UK fishing skipper's ticket, fished UK near and middle waters on various vessels and fitted out my 1936 16 ton gaff cutter for stern and side trawling. I worked it single-handed in SW Scotland, under sail whenever possible.
    I moved to Brazil in 1987 and worked offshore as Barge Supervisor and Mate/DP Operator until 2001.
    My small offshore training company has ceased operations, so I'm now looking for other possible activities.
    One of these is to offer tourists a spin in my B24. This would include a visit to a 'private' beach and a good barbecue!

    Sailing, photography, carpentry and computers.
