My name is Fred, I am 18 years old and I have just finished my A levels and I am now looking to start the next chapter of my life. As I have grown up on the North Norfolk coast all things nautical have been an integeral part of my life, and especially with my family having deep roots in the nautical world, I was only ever going to go one way. I've been sailing since a very young age and there is one thing that has been made very clear to me and that is no matter what time of the year, the North Sea will always be cold and if you go swimming you will be cold for the rest of the day. Stepping further inland I have a keen interest in all sports but especially Rugby, Cricket and Ski Racing, I also play golf but don't expect me making par too often! I have been described as kind, calm, good fun, confident and also hard working as evidenced by me achieving the Duke of Edinburgh Gold award and A*AB in my A levels.
