Duncan Macgregor’s inspiration has always come from the sea. He and his wife have sailed the Atlantic together in a little 34-foot yacht and have experienced the frustration of endless windless days – and the extremes of 65mph winds and huge seas. They now sail mainly on the west coast of Scotland and the Norfolk Broads where Duncan MacGregor was brought up.
