The travels and adventures of one man and his boat - A Cornish Shrimper named "Daislebee". To misquote Dylan Winter "I am a man from middle England, who has lived all his life on this island we call England and yet I have never sailed around it" This blog will cover the journeys Daislebee will undertake, although a circumnavigation is a long way off.

Keep Turning Left
You'll notice the link on the left to this very entertaining site maintained by Dylan Winter. It is a growing collection of short videos posted by Dylan who is a professional film maker so the quality and content are very good. Dylan is sailing his boat around the coast of Britain, having set out from Bembridge in 2008 and made it round to the East Coast by the end of 2009. A short distance in a long time you may think, but Dylan is exploring the rivers and creeks along the way and can only sail when film commitments permit. He researches the areas well, incorporating a lot of local history and detail into the commentary. He also makes extensive use of Google Earth to 'fly' the estuaries and inlets. As we all know sailing costs money and Dylan is trying to fund his adventure by selling the full length films for nominal sums using PayPal - using the trailers on the web site as tasters. Go on - support Dylan - you know it's worth it.
