Coast Guard no longer monitoring 121 MHz EPIRBS Interesting small boat voyage around the British Isles web site Here is an interesting site I came across in Small Boat Advisor magazine. It’s about a chap called Dylan Winters who decided to buy a small, cheap old sailboat and sail around the British Isles, going up the rivers and creeks. He is doing it over several years. Fascinating stuff; visiting all sorts of interesting places with lots of sailing videos to watch. He has several free videos and charges a subscription of $4.99 to watch everything. Well worth it as Dylan is a professional videographer and the production quality is high. I have now volunteered to distribute Dylan's DVDs of his voyage in the US. They are $25.00 for four disks which is 6 hours of sailing, visits to places of interest, nature, lots of old boats and Dylan's comments on things - very interesting stuff. Contact Dylan to order through the website. | |
