    Hi old friend. Never under estimate the power of the seas. I remember this tragedy well, as would most matelots from my era, any seaman that is lost to the seas should always be remembered. At the moment I am chugging back down the East Coast, UK and the weather is still good. Neptune as you know is the god of the seas, and has a history for those interested. I have enjoyed Cowes week over the years, and it is far from the pretentious view that some people think it is. The yachtsmen are ahead and alert to the dangers that can spring up in an instant, as any matelot knows. Old proverb: A smooth sea never makes a skillful sailor. You have made a piece of histoy known that should never be lost. Cheers Kev. Stay safe.

      @@Topphat-l1f Hi old friend. It was by pure luck that I found the church. I was about to leave as I was going to go back to film the church at a later date. But I was drawn to turn left & down the little path, that led to the monument. Then I had a flash back from seeing it on TV when I was 14. I never forgot it and to then discover the monument, I knew it had to be put in this episode.
      Safe chugging down the East Coast.
      I'm glad you enjoyed this episode.
      Stay safe Sal & good winds to you. Cheers.

    Brilliant stroll Kev, thanks for showing us around. Loved it when you rumbled the harbour patrol fella, on his phone 🤣🤣 he should have been concentrating on steering the boat 😊

    Some lovely footage there, Kev! Beautiful scenes and perfect weather! Thank you for the story of the Fastnet Race Disaster, which I wasn't previously aware of. Nature will always be the most powerful force. Great video! 👍🙂

    Thanks Kev! Save the seahorse, I say. Vessels aplenty in this one. I was interested to see the Isle of Wight has its own flag. In this part of the world there's a Murray River flag. It's never had any official status but a lot of river people regard it as their symbol. ⚓

      @@lakefromeshippingcompany thank you muchly my friend. The flag was changed, to the modern looking one. The old one was better. I was talking to someone, the other day. Flags are important, it's our colour's.
