About Me
- steve
- A welshman displaced to wonderful Plymouth in SW England; a novice sailor, motorhomer and boat builder with a passion for all things to do with the sea. Follow my journey as I learn to sail Arwen, grappling with charts, tide tables and passage planning so that I can become 'a dinghy cruiser' And by the way, just occasionally, little snippets about our travels and adventures. Subscribe on this blog and at www.youtube.com/c/plymouthwelshboy for videos about dinghy cruising. I look forward to hearing your comments, tips and thoughts.

Hi Steve,
Nice movie! I like the quotes, making me want to go sailing right now! It is great to have a boat and be able to take her anywhere... ;)

Yo Rik
How you doing?
Thanks. I edit the movies on GoPro cinestudio - nothing special and limited in what it does but intuitive to use. I wish I had a better understanding of film editing but there we go.
the quotes make it slightly different; never used those before. I am trying to get across the concept of 'mini adventures' - we all need them. Steve and Spartina do this really well I always think.
The quotes come from something called 'pininterest' a social media site.
How far off launching is your pathfinder?
Great trailer Steve, looking forward to the full feature!

Thanks anders
Good to hear from you
Yeah.......put the pressure on myself now. That will teach me!
Steve
Looking forward to the full length feature - looks like a great trip.

Steve,
Rigging and small stuff... lots of it! We have a regatta coming up this weekend and I will try to have her there with masts and possibly the standing rigging. Then maybe even the sails... We will see. Check out the blog for updates.
