Hello, I am Brenton.  Some people call me Brent.  Some people have been known to call me Ben – there’s a story behind that, but I’ll save it for another time.  

The surname is a bit trickier: Prigge.  It’s originally German, so the final ‘e’ is pronounced.  I suppose if you imagined the final letter as an ‘a’ you would probably say it correctly – or pretty close.  I’m quite used to it being said wrongly anway! Right, that’s the name out of the way.

A bit of background:  I was born in South Africa, the eldest of four boys, and had a very happy early childhood growing up in a very small village in the hills of Kwazulu Natal.  We then moved to Port Shepstone on the East coast of Kwazulu Natal for my high school years, and that too was a very happy time – and the beginning of my love for the sea.
