It is beautiful, the water, the sailboats, the film. It is something to see so many beautiful old sailboats out in such an area. We NEVER see such a thing here - just people zipping along with little outboard fishing boats not using the little waterways for a relaxing sail. I came across your videos while searching how to sail a dinghy. I just picked up my first sailboat - 11 sailing dinghy and know I know where I am going to sail it. The little back water sloughs. Thanks - great ideas!
I've watched many of your videos now and it finally struck me that what you are doing is introducing lots of folks to a side of England few would ever see. And those wonderful wooden boats sailing along your narrow rivers! We have nothing like it at least in this part of the US of A. Thankyou!
Okay, fine. You've got all the history. But, we've got stuff too, you know. Big stuff. Big shiny stuff. Like, the best, biggest, shiniest... oh, who am I kidding. You've got the Norfolk Broads. Dammit, Dylan! So beautiful. And beautifully presented in this series. Well done, sir!
Two things that got me..... One. Comming to a bend in the river and seeing the sails of a Norfolk Wherry. Two. After a week on the Broads getting in the car to go home and felt like we was travelling at 60 mph when in fact we were travelling at 30 mph. For a week life slowed right down... Body Batteries fully charged..... wonderful. 😁
Love your many little films about sailing round Britain.. Please enjoy our contributions concentrating mostly on the double ended yachts of Peter Bruun, Grinde, Marsvin, Kaskelot and Spækhugger and cruises in Danish, Swedish and German Waters
I am so jealous of those river house dwellers. I am watching this one again. who would want to live on the ocean if they could live on a river that could be sailed with a boathouse that provided instant sailing and a passing view one could never tire of?
Lovely video. I love the broads. I'm getting the itch to go back but don't know anyone to go back with. I miss the Lady class of yachts that used to be at Herbert Woods, they were the days, been on Find lady, Fair Lady, Perfect Lady and a few more but they all seem to be gone now. :-(
Try Eastwood Whelpton at Upton. Their yachts are even better than the Ladies which we've had in the 60s. Windjammer is my absolute favourite & we clocked her at 8mph on a sat nav.
You need light weight sheets for that sort of sailing. The constant cycle of fill and collapse would be controlled if that heavy block and sheets were replaced.
I,m a commercial fisherman on englands east coast with many many sea miles under my belt but never done any sailing and really fancy it, is it hard to learn? Love boats love travelling and love the idea of mosying around some of these wonderful places you show on something i can sleep on.
+Ian Jackson it is dead easy - just buy an 18 footer with a reliable outboard - motor upwind, unfurl the jib sand sail down windwind repeat until comfortable - after that everything will fall into place lots of eejits sail. Fishermen have an acronym for us... WAFIs. The peace and quiet of sailing is marvelous and to see that invisible silent physics creating drive out of thin air is a wonderful thing. Buy a sailing boat - quickly - time is of the essence boatsandoutboards is the place to look - dayboats and trailer sailers. I am from Brightlingsea
+KeepTurningLeft thankyou, i,m quite excited about a very well equipped iona 23 with a vire 7 inboard and its own purpose made trailer ive seen for sale, but what do i know about sailing boats i catch seafood for a living! Haha
+KeepTurningLeft dont know how old the engine is but its 2 stroke petrol, i,m fairly good with the spanners so engines dont scare me albeit ive never heard of this type, ive got a 4x4 pick-up to tow with and yes its a single keel so will fall over on a tidal mooring, think i,ll bow to your knowledge and go for something smaller, shame cos the living space inside was excellent and seemed "good to go" are charts for the broads and inland waterways readily available? Cheers, ian.
best avoid a vire westerly Nimrod or something similar is the boat for you big cockpit, excellent outboard access, sails with either sail or both, room for one/maybe two to hide from the rain even if you have a bigg tow car - l;aunching a big boat is a right effort
Another beautiful video Mr. KTL.One small correction, the title should be... "ktl 162 film the best inland sail video in Britain - looks better on your telly"
October 2018. Just back from a week’s single handed Sailing/Camping on a Hunters Half Decker from Ludham. A Magical week, weather and encounters with sailors who taught me much about tacking in 15ft of river with adverse wind and tide. Weather, days, mornings, dusk, just as we see here. Plus a clear night to spot Mars, the god of war.
the driffield navigation has a few sailboats on the canal and i believe it had its own sailing club years ago , Brigham sailing club....look up DRIFFIELDNAVIGATION on youtube
KeepTurningLeft My mother's father's family are from Lowestoft she spent some time on the Broads as a girl. And though I have never been it does look oddly familiar. I am going to show her the video on their big smart TV as soon as I can. Perhaps one day I will go to have a look see myself. Seen a couple of your videos, they nearly make me missing sailing! :
+clangerbasher it will look and sound better if you download it it from the website and vimeo or you could burn it onto a dvd for her to watch. Several other broads films. Buy another boat quick - time is of the essence D
Well,don't film at first.Have a flashlight or torch as they call it over there and go out,its totally beautiful,no other boats,just the river or bay and the stars.I am crazy sometimes when I'd take the boat out the Manasquan Inlet in New Jersey,out in the ocean for a few kilometers and sail back in under sail.I was the King of the world.
I've got to wonder who's thumbing down these videos. What is there not too like about this video? Is it the quip about Americans? If the truth hurts then do something about it. I'm an American and I left to a place that is not so nutso.
@@KeepTurningLeft I thought we were talking about history and sailing, Not current issues, I can say is that i love English history and literature and most of my favorite bands are English.Led Zeppelin, Anthony Philips, Steve Hackett, Pink Floyd, Peter Gaberial, Genesis and the list goes on... Politics lets just say... I am not a socialist and i want a president the preserves our freedom and Constitution.

One of the best sailing videos that I ever seen.
Thank you for showing the sound and sights of the beautiful England.
I would like to thank you very much for your films, they are an inspiration!!!!!!!!!!!!
Richard George James Jackson that is a very nice thing to say.... I have three suggestions for you ..... buy a boat, buy a boat, buy a boat
and again a beautiful film of a piece of the beautiful and interesting England shows
Another nice river exploration video. I enjoyed seeing the variety of small boats, and especially liked seeing them quietly sail so peacefully.
superb, brought back many lovely memories of times spent on the broads in happier days, thank you
the broads is a fine place for an old bloke to sail his boat
Absolutely! I've been ther 36 times since 1962 & still love it at 71.
love those boats and the peaceful sail! thank you sir!
Okay, fine. You've got all the history. But, we've got stuff too, you know. Big stuff. Big shiny stuff. Like, the best, biggest, shiniest... oh, who am I kidding. You've got the Norfolk Broads. Dammit, Dylan! So beautiful. And beautifully presented in this series. Well done, sir!
Love all of your films, particularly those featuring The Broads, my favourite place to sail.
I love so much your videos, stunning nature and wonderful music!!!
Thank you very much, grazie, CIAO!
and thank you for taking the time to say so
OK I watched this on my lunch, and don't want to go back to work! So relaxed.

13 century bridge Dylan... that amazing it most be a drill to sail in that area with all the antique boats and all ...bucket list for me
I am so jealous of those river house dwellers. I am watching this one again. who would want to live on the ocean if they could live on a river that could be sailed with a boathouse that provided instant sailing and a passing view one could never tire of?
Wow at 10:10 ! That whole video is a piece of art!...

absolutely delightful. thanks for making a great video
it is a wonderful place to sail
I posted it on a Quebec sailing forum. Those guys must see that beautiful sailing! ;-)
Amazing the history of your county Dylan

well done sir. love your editing
Brilliant.
Just beautiful.
+David Browne Cheers DB - good man
I have never been on the driffield navigation - can you sail it? If you can then I will
Dylan
Oh, i see. Nice waters up there.

+KeepTurningLeft thankyou, i,m quite excited about a very well equipped iona 23 with a vire 7 inboard and its own purpose made trailer ive seen for sale, but what do i know about sailing boats i catch seafood for a living! Haha
the inboard sounds like a challenge - how old is it?
does the boat fall over when the tide goes out?
what are you going to tow it with?
+KeepTurningLeft dont know how old the engine is but its 2 stroke petrol, i,m fairly good with the spanners so engines dont scare me albeit ive never heard of this type, ive got a 4x4 pick-up to tow with and yes its a single keel so will fall over on a tidal mooring, think i,ll bow to your knowledge and go for something smaller, shame cos the living space inside was excellent and seemed "good to go" are charts for the broads and inland waterways readily available? Cheers, ian.
best avoid a vire
westerly Nimrod or something similar is the boat for you
big cockpit, excellent outboard access, sails with either sail or both, room for one/maybe two to hide from the rain
even if you have a bigg tow car - l;aunching a big boat is a right effort
Beautiful,now try that at night,even more interesting.
can't film at night
Another beautiful video Mr. KTL.One small correction, the title should be... "ktl 162 film the best inland sail video in Britain - looks better on your telly"

Je comprend pourquoi.....! Quelle quiétude. bise

you hard people - I love the broads in the winter time
Very nice day out.
I do live in a wonderful country for sailing
Anyone know what the boat is at the 8:45 mark is? I saw several like that in this video. Beautiful boats.
the driffield navigation has a few sailboats on the canal and i believe it had its own sailing club years ago , Brigham sailing club....look up DRIFFIELDNAVIGATION on youtube
What port did you enter the broads on?
+Andrew Polson Lowestoft
Pure genius at 04:18 !... :-)
do you ever sail on the Avon? btw, we say "lake" and you say "broad" nice:)
have you been to the driffield navigation
brilliant vids buy the way
Lovely.
+clangerbasher it is a splendid place to go for a sail

the web is a broad church
If it wasn't for us Yanks you would be speaking German,,,, SMOKE THAT IN YOUR PIPE
that is true - but if it were not for the english you would have been speaking french or spanish on the east coast and Russian or Spanish on the West,
@@KeepTurningLeft didn't you English learn your lesson abut us Yanks in 1776,,, That would of never happened
are you a Trump voter? Just a wild guess
