Meet the crew

Matt’s been involved with the marina since it was on the drawing board, so he’s very much part of the furniture. A keen sailor who enjoys both racing and cruising, he’s taken to sailing other people’s boats whilst his own lies languishing in the yard – but he tells us that’s about to change.

Sue is ‘Wright’ by name and ‘right’ by nature! All her numbers add up, and she keeps our accounts ship shape and in order – and she’s fun and friendly too! A stalwart of the local sailing club, in her day she was pretty hot in Enterprises and is an old hand sailing back and forth across the North Sea.

An all-round nice guy and people person. After a career in retail management, David pursued his love of boats and ‘fled to the Med’ to work as a motor yacht crew before washing up in the north-east as a Yacht Broker and finding his true calling. He loves his work nearly as much as he loves his dogs.

As with all the Berthing Master team, you will find Ken answering the VHF, operating the lock gates, taking your lines, lifting boats, serving fuel, keeping the marina clean, tidy and well maintained, checking boats, recording all the ins and outs, doing security, and working the till. Phew! And he still has time to smile!
