There was no family history of maritime adventure and my parents had no expectation of me in this area. One minute I was a schoolboy – average, skinny, callow, under-confident – the next I was in a cheap hotel in Hamburg, sandwiched among a string of bars off the Reeperbahn, waiting for my ship to dock, living with a mixed bag of characters who were beyond my imagination and understanding.
