Alan Priddy was born on a council estate in Portsmouth in 1953
and freely admits that he "dragged himself up". His 'powerboat'
ambitions started off small when he was 11 years old and messing
about in a motorised dinghy. From that point on he was hooked and
the boats, like the challenges, just kept getting bigger!
