Bruce, Peter: - After many years spent in the Royal Navy, Peter Bruce continues to spend much time at sea either racing, cruising or researching his pilotage books, based from his home in Lymington. He has achieved a string of victories in his own yachts, making him one of the top Corinthian skippers in the world.
