Peter Scott
Small boat sailing is an interesting subject for any knowledgeable person to talk about. With a remarkable personality like Peter Markham Scott at the microphone listeners will be sure of a fascinating fifteen minutes.
Scott is not yet twenty-seven years old. But in his short life he has shown that he has inherited much from his famous parents: his skill as an artist - he is a well-known painter of wild birds - from his mother who is a sculptor; and his love of adventure from his father, the heroic Captain Scott. His home is a lighthouse in Norfolk. With these unusual head-quarters he can lead the life he likes best - painting, wild-fowling, skating, and yachting. At all these he is an expert. Only a week or two ago he represented Great Britain with success in the Olympic Games race for yawls, beating Germany and Chile.
