A fanatical sailor and boat owner, Keith has spent his life afloat, racing Cadet dinghies as a child, moving into 420’s and a place in the RYA Youth Squad before a foray into multihulls racing Shearwaters and array of other catamarans.

Moving up through smaller keel boats to larger yachts, attending regattas around the globe and occasionally returning to dinghy fleets closer to home. An avid devotee of the sport and industry as a whole, representing Yacht Clubs, Associations and specific events. A lifelong supporter of the British Marine Federation, member of the RYA along with continued adviser to many maritime charities.

Celebrating 40 years in the insurance industry, the majority directly representing yacht and pleasure craft owners alongside businesses that make up the industry that supports the pastime. A member of the Chartered Insurance Institute, the Yachting Journalists Association, regular contributor to industry events and spokesperson for the yacht insurance sector as a whole. Now the proud owner of a 50 year old Ecume De Mer, optimised for racing but can equally be found heading to the Isle of Wight on a motor cruiser.
