About the Author
Jake Kavanagh was born into a boating family and for many years lived by the Thames at Marlow, sailing his dinghy on the river and crewing his parents' yacht abroad. After a variety of jobs the River eventually drew him back; Jake joined the Thames Water Authority as a lockkeeper, working the locks around Windsor for four years. He is now a well-known boating cartoonist and the Editor of Motor Boats Monthly.
