Hi,
I'm James, I'm 24 and am currently studying at Fleetwood Nautical College to become a deck officer in the merchant navy.
Bought a 56 TD4 back in February having wanted a Freelander since they first appeared.

Looking forward to getting advice and help from all of you.
Thanks
James

Fleetwoods not far from the Lakes, are you coming greenlaning with us next month?

I would be very interested if I was here, but we are off to sea for a bit sometime in October. Back in January for seven months though so plenty of time then.

Not so much.
We don't know where we are going yet but we have been told to get hold of a US and Australian visa so I'm hoping its a nice run through the South Pacific for a few months. I think its obvious which option a lot of people would choose.
