Gordon KnightGordon Knight spent 25 years in the public relations industry, latterly as joint founder and managing director of a top 10 UK PR company (floated in 1987, sold in 1991), then as an independent issues management consultant 'until it got in the way of ruising'. A Cruising Association member since 2013, Gordon has spent 40 years cruising under sail, mostly in his Oyster 435 ketch Athene of Lymington in Northern European waters and throughout the Mediterranean. During that time he has been an active administrator on the World Cruising Wiki, largely creating several Mediterranean sections as well as contributing to CA Cruising Reports. In 2015 he purchased a Nowee 38, Cheyenne of Lymington, and now spends much of the year cruising the inland waterways of France and Belgium with his wife Soophy. He is a member of the CA's European Inland Waterways Section (EIWS) and writes or edits all the Section's publications. He is also author of 16 full-colour photo guides to the French waterways.
