Sorry about the delay chaps - I moved house so that really got in the way of making films.
Now that most sensible people watch the films on their big tellies it seems that a slightly longer film might work. So this one is an hour.
let me know if it works or lingers too long
Paypal changed their site. Deeplink do not work anymore when adding to cart.
Thanks Dylan, very well done. The sixty minutes works fine for me and I am very pleased to see that there will be a further two films in due course. John Arthur is quite a character, I am pleased that you included your conversation with him, it was a joy to hear. Harmony was looking really smart, all credit to you. P.
Is the HD Video in 720p or 1080p?.
Same here, brought me to paypal site but when I logged in nothing
Ditto, tried to process a tap, goes to log in screen as expected, log in but brings up my account summary not a check out page ?
PS… 60min is great, only had time for 15 min tonight but bookmarked to watch later.
57 mins? it’ll be 90 on Dave :)
I’m saving it for later, too late to start now.
The Paypal link didn’t work?
Paypal link worked for me. The hour format is perfect — beats most of what passes for entertainment on TV that’s for sure.
Hi Dilan, you need to add a £ 10 and £ 15 pay option for these longer films, those who want to pay less or free for the ride can continue to do so. Might provide 2p towards a heater for Jill fund, which would not be a bad thing!
That was just great, thanks. A wonderful and encouraging thing to watch on the shortest day of the year. Happy Christmas to you and yours.
Very enjoyable, thanks Dylan. Love the long format, can settle in properly.
That was a bloody quick hour!
Thanks Dylan – especially enjoyed John Arthur, made me chuckle a couple of times. I too like the hour long format.
looking forward to watching this – will tap again later
Dylan
I can’t get away with watching an hour of anything right now a couple of days before Christmas and a road trip. Will try to watch while visiting over Xmas. But defiantly looking forward to it.
All the best for the holiday season, to you and Jill and fellow followers who I feel I know
Warren
Enjoyed the film & the John Aurthur piece was lovely. Captured the spirit of the enterprising local people.
Bit of an early Christmas present to the Mob’s. Have a merry Christmas & good sailing in 2017!
Enjoyed that. Tapped the Button. Seems to have gone but wondering if you received?
Merry Christmas.
Steve
Great film Dylan, really enjoyed that. Nice to have a film to help get through the long Canadian winter here. Went well with a nice glass of whisky. Great sequence with the young crab-fisher lad.
Thanks Dylan.
Have a happy xmas with Jill and your cildren.
Watched and paid , the lad was a joy to watch. Happy Xmas and fair winds. J
Great film, Dylan. I think the format brings out the best in you.
We’ve been wondering what happened to you ~ perhaps you need to warn your viewers next time you do something as drastic as moving house: we thought you might have missed a turn and followed the Viking route to the Americas!
So glad we still have you with us and very much look forward to seeing more of these films.
Great film Dylan, really enjoyed it on our big Telly as a Boxing Day treat. Living in Shetland I know you did bloody well with the weather. Fantastic when the weather is good, but you have to really have the time to wait for it..and when it does turn up so does the Haar..and then you have to go to work instead..
Disappointed my house doesn’t feature, but you do manage to get in some good stuff on Lerwick and you say Whalsay – ‘Wol sah’`. Keep ’em coming mate ..great films, always cheer me up.!
Dylan – thank you for assembling this longer video, it was just the right length and yes I did enjoy it on my big telly. Editing a video of this length is truly a work of both passion and persistence and must represent many hours in the editing suite. In the same way that Eric and Susan Hiscock’s ‘Beyond the West Horizon’ captured a slice of social and world history, so your work is developing into a body of work that reflects a view and commentary of our time around our Islands. Thank you and a Happy New Year.?
Just got a huuge! 4K TV as a gift for Christmas. Now I’m inspired to see if I can hook it up to my PC or tablet so I can watch it properly. (I like the 60-min. format.) Of course then I’ll have to go back and start all-over
In other yachting news, Thomas Coville just sailed Around the World in 49-days in a trimaran,…a Trimaran!!

…And it’s Sydney to Hobart Race week.
Now, if we could only get Drake “Dread-Pirate” Roberts to pick-up the pace. It’s been three-years so-far from Oriental NC to Lunenburg NS. (…just kidding, Drake!)
Very well done! Our kids are home for the holidays and having grown up sailing with us, we enjoyed it together. Thank you, Dylan.
Amazing achievement to get so far round the British Isles without a sailing qualification to your name, while an RYA sailor can become a Yachmaster by crossing the English Channel a couple of times.
Yes, the RYA do do some good work. I learned the rudiments of sailing with the RYA on a £50K 40 footer with a steering wheel, and in the Solent to boot. As I’m unlikely to ever be able to afford the steering wheel, let alone the other 40 feet of boat attached to it, it probably wasn’t the wisest of choices! When my health improves (fingers crossed) I’ll see about getting something more in keeping with my finances and physical capabilities and then learn to be a good sailor in my own time. In the meantime, I’ll stick with living vicariously through your splendid films. Thanks again Dylan.
Great film, Thanks
so Watching on the big Telly.
I finally got time to watch, but a new first for me, I had just switched back to a different tv supplier, (it almost all cable or satalite in the States), in my case to Fios from Verizon or Voda-phone in EU from Comcast/xfinity cable.
As I moved thru the channel array what did I see but You-tube, no need to stream from Apple TV or roku or some other device, 20 seconds of searching and there it is my #1 favorite on all my other devices, Keep Turn Left , and there is season 8 part 13 in HD with 4430 views so far.
How cool is that? You made the big time again!
Thank you Dylan
Warren
Ps maybe I’m the last to know but I love it!
They loved it!
Good thing they were home, we watched it on the TV(which we didn’t know we could). With a simple ROKU box(we cut the cable ages ago), they showed us we had YouTube through the ROKU (don’t laugh…). Searched KTL and voila! There they are, your episodes on the big screen.
Our kids 25-26, are my internet tools, I need to learn nothing, which is a good feeling.
Great New film…. featuring you and Jill… just wanted to make sure that this headline from 3 January 2017…. is not disrupting your yacht, or new location (house) … as the news just reported…”North Sea ‘earthquake’ of magnitude 3.9 strikes 100 miles off the coast of Scarborough – did you feel anything?
http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/north-sea-earthquake-magnitude-39-12401867#rlabs=1%20rt$sitewide%20p$1
Your Film on Scarborough was great so…
please let “www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news” … know that KTL will continue despite the ocean quake.
We’ll be sending funds like the last time….to support your efforts… but not electronically since putin and trump secretly purchased twitter from …. you know who…
cheers
Hi Dylan,
Sort of tricked my wife to watch this on Sunday morning, (a direct tv channel does make it easy) we both enjoyed it although she wonder about her ability to withstand the downwind rolling that stuff gets her seasick quickly.
She was expecting only half an hour and we both agreed a part 1 &2 would also work for us. Perhaps a small cliff hanger in the middle ( lost in fog…..).
I don’t follow la vagabong or SV Delos, I don’t see much of a story in their videos but maybe I need to watch more.
I enjoy ‘follow the boat’ ‘drake paragon’ ‘white spot pirate’ ‘accidental sailor girl’ and the like where there is real boating activity with story line and also Video of where they visit. Your channel is however the very best as you do the research into where you visit and provide great historical and human interest.
As an expat I/we really enjoy seeing more of the country we grew up in. It really inspirers me to want to visit as some of these areas and possibly spend more time in U.K. after retirement or even retire early to enjoy some of this. I spend countless hours thinking about buying a U.K. Boat or property to live in to enjoy some of U.K.
Since I lost my parents and there is only my brother in U.K. now ( & mothers law) its harder to find free accommodation for an extended stay. So yes, your videos have defiantly changed the way think about U.K. and the rest of my life and hopefully inspiring me to get on and find a way out of the rat race of running a 2 demanding businesses.( even if it is very interesting and challenging).
Scotland is amazing looking but I am realistic about the weather and a short trip would be my limit i think. I do enjoy being away from the endless overcast and rain but the summer heat here is oppressive and hard sail in.
Cheers Warren
Ps pubs are almost a good enough reason to return to U.K.! I have become an only occasional drinker here.
Are trains too expensive or difficult to travel to Scotland?
I think once a month to Scotland would be plenty especially with the difficult weather conditions there. (or take 2-3 months off and do some Duck punt sailing as time/weather permits. Try to hook up with the West Mersea guys….they are only an hour away.

Thank you, and a Happy New Year to you two too. We don’t have a tv on the boat we live on and our vote would be for two half hour instalments, having said which we can choose to watch it that way if we want to, so do what ever you feel like doing.
Nice to watch someone having the best sail of their lives as the water here slowly freezes over. How are the steel barge kids getting on? A
