WELCOME TO MY CHANNEL I am an architect, writer and artist, but I spend much of my spare time messing about in a small boat. This channel reflects these passions, but at present it is mostly about boats! I was born in Carlisle in 1958 (whatever Google may think!) and now live in France. THE DINGHY CRUISING ASSOCIATION In 1955 a group of British cruising dinghy sailors set up an Association to share information, to organise rallies and to promote the activity. The Association now has an international membership and I am its President. https://www.dinghycruising.org.uk THE DINGHY CRUISING COMPANION Venturing into the fringes of the wilderness with the minimum of simple gear, to live with it on its own terms. One of the sure ways to contentment in this life is a small boat, a fair wind, and a new coast to explore. https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/dinghy-cruising-companion-2nd-edition-9781472994295/ ARCHITECTURE There are very few architectural videos on here. One day there will be more.
