User:David A Pugh

I am an enthusiastic amateur sailor, and have built my career writing about boats for various UK sailing magazines. I am practically-minded and enjoy getting my hands dirty, whether its with wood, metal or epoxy resins. Academically, I have degrees in Applied Physics and Telecommunications.

I now work for a maritime PR agency, and have joined Wikipedia initially to add a page about Pip Hare, a solo ocean sailor who plans to take art in the Vendée Globe round-the-world race in 2020. We are supporting her for free, but I am being paid my my employer.

I plan to keep this account and contribute on a volunteer basis in future.
