John Brimble

John joins us from the UK. Living in South Shields, he has always been near the sea. His hobbies include riding his motorbike, diving, and running. Following in his father’s footsteps, he began his career with a cadetship at 16 years old, completing it to obtain his engineering degree and engineering license by the age of 19. Since then, he has served nine years in the merchant navy with BP Shipping, working on tanker ships around the world. Four years ago, he transitioned to the yachting sector, working on a variety of different vessels until he joined us. He brings a wealth of knowledge to THUMPER and is always proactive in his approach.
