He was born in Jersey, and was educated at Victoria College and the University of Aberdeen (graduating with a 1st Class BSc Hons Zoology). He is currently living and working in St. Helier.

Marcus had always been interested in participating in a race of this type but his desire was crystallised when he stood at the entrance to the harbour and watched Jersey Clipper (with some good friends as crew members) arrive at its home port.

The local support was amazing and he hopes that this will continue to be the case. "I am sure that the crew of the 2002 Jersey Clipper will do our utmost to live up to the fine example set by the previous crew." he said.

His main interests lie in reading, travelling, socialising and water sports. "What could be a better way of enjoying these pastimes by combining them all in such an adventure as this whilst representing Jersey at the same time? I am very much looking forward to the racing and cannot think of a better way to arrive at such fantastic locations."
