BLUE MERMAID YT FINAL

Tue, 16 Jun 2026 16:39:00 +0000

Sailing without an engine is always special, but when it’s aboard a hundred-ton Thames sailing barge in the running tides of Essex it’s a whole-life experience. Here, I sail with the consummate professionals who run Blue Mermaid for the Sea-Change Trust, helping disadvantaged people and particularly the young to connect with natural forces in the best way in the world. If you enjoy this video, take a look at a previous one I made aboard another Thames barge with the same skipper. Here’s the link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jusEsstMyIw
If you’re interested in sailing, things maritime and the salty road to freedom, you'll enjoy my channel, so pour yourself a glass of the finest and settle down with my personal mixture of yarns and useful instructional material.
When I’m away cruising, I never know when I'll get the opportunity to upload. If you can't wait, why not become a member of my website club? You'll find lots of members-only videos and articles, not available elsewhere, and have a chance to join in a regular online forum.
