any idea who this might be?

This guy was spotted on the water today, he was heard on the slipway talking very knowledgably about boating and giving advice to a few people and generally being helpful, seems he has spent his whole life with boats and has a lot of mates with boats. It would seem he either has a very smart boat or is expecting the arrival of one very very soon. He was clutching a very smart radio and was busy chatting with the harbour master preparing for his departure.

seemed like a very decent chap..

any ideas who it might be?
