Very enjoyable video series on Youtube. A middle aged fellow sails around England in an 18 foot vintage bilge keeler. He is doing a kind of video blog. So far I have seen 18 episodes of about 5 minutes each. They are very well done. Some parts are funny, some are just plain wonderful to watch. My favourites are some great footage of old Gaffers, Smacks and Thames barges sailing and racing. It takes some searching to find them all, in order..but I found it was well worth it. Here is a link to the first of the series. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdyZrVa1yEc Cheers, Tim, in Kelowna..enjoying the most consistently windy summer yet. Brilliant stuff.
