Olaf has retired from a 60 year maritime transport career that covered aspects of ship, port and harbour commercial operations where operational manpower, logistics, financial, educational and regulatory backgrounds are basics to be followed. This has incorporated design and budgetary planning with constant reviews of risk assessment and prevention techniques over repeated travels to venues worldwide. As a lifelong hobby of small craft maintenance and sailing, Olaf has covered many miles of the Scottish coast that now creates interest in future water activities in the proposed Foyers Bay project of the Trust.
