Franco Ferrero began sea kayaking at the age of fifteen. He was lucky enough to be brought up in the Channel Islands. The small scattered islands, fast tidal streams and summer fogs meant that navigation was a key skill learnt at an early age. In 1978 he was one of a team of three Jerseymen who completed the first circumnavigation of Ireland by sea kayak. In 1989 with Kevin Danforth he made a record breaking unsupported crossing of the North Sea; ninety nautical miles as the crow flies, over a hundred after allowing for the tidal streams, in twenty seven hours and ten minutes. Franco is a BCU Level 5 Coach (Sea and Inland). He currently works half time for the Canoe and Kayak Department at Plas Y Brenin, the UK national centre and the other half as Managing Director of Pesda Press.
