Martin, better known to his friends and family as Scotia, was born on the 11th of June, 1965 in Greenock, Scotland. He was accepted into the Royal Navy at fifteen and undertook missile training at the HMS Cambridge base to become a Gunner. He went on to serve as a Gunner on the HMS Rothesay, HMS Blackwater and the HMS Plymouth. After leaving the Royal Navy he continued to travel the world before settling down in Australia. He was kind, loving and adventurous. He always told amazing travel stories about his friends from around the world, and spoke fondly of his time in the Navy.

Go down to the sea once more,old sailor.
For where else would an old Jack Tar be.
But riding the waves,and tasting the brine.
Out there on God's heavenly seas.
With fair weather assured every voyage.No storms.No clouds in the sky.
With calm blue waters to sail on.
And ever bright stars to steer by.
A fine sturdy ship to sail in,and revered old shipmates to crew.
And with an angel riding the masthead.
And land,now long out of view.
What more could an old matelot ask for?To serve as a tar for the Lord.
So welcome old sailor,now the tides on the ebb.
It's an honour to have you onboard.

Martin Scott was a Sailor, Warrior and Adventurous man who served his country with honor and pride. As a sailor who served on HMS Rothesay Martin was a brother to all who served on F107. In your passing we have all lost a fine man, may your travels on your next adventure carry you with fair winds and a following sea. RIP Martin ⚓️
