Crew Bio - Greg Cudden

by Sail-World on 20 Nov 2001
Greg Cudden crew member on Club Venture's National Investment Institute Sail-World.com /AUS http://www.sail-world.com
Greg has only been sailing for around 3½ years but during that time he has accumulated many miles with Ocean Frontier. He has sailed as far north as the Whitsundays and as far south as Hobart aboard the 'Spirit of Sydney'. He has also sailed to Lord Howe Island.

Greg originally started sailing in order to become a good crew member, as he was interested in an Ocean Frontier expedition to South America.

Although he currently works as a paymaster, Greg is a qualified teacher - which could explain his remarkable knowledge of facts about single-handed around the world races.

Greg has gained both personal and sailing inspiration from around the world mariner Harry Mitchell. He is looking forward to tracing some of his journey during this circumnavigation expedition.
