He was educated at St Paul's School, London, which he entered in 1857.〔()〕 Early in his career he qualified as a Master Mariner and was commissioned a Lieutenant in the Royal Naval Reserve. Interest in small boats led him to a fascination with canoes. In 1871, at the age of 24, he paddled and sailed a canoe on a cruise around the Baltic Sea that included stops in Germany, Denmark and Sweden, as described in his book, ''Canoe Travelling'', published in 1871. He was called to the Bar in Trinity Term 1876, being admitted as a Barrister of the Inner Temple. He was later admitted to the Admiralty Bar and became a member of several important organizations focused on the sea. He was appointed a King's Counsel (KC) on 24 December 1897.〔Sainty, John (1987): ''A List Of English Law Officers, King’s Counsel and Holders Of Patents Of Precedence''.
