In this sailing video we return to our captain’s main
loves; boats, mud and birds. It starts with clips of classic boats
which are hailed as much more aesthetically attractive than the
boats in the Solent. We then get a quick look at the North bank of
the Medway and its busy trades before we go over to the South bank
and into Stangate Creek where we re-familiarise ourselves with the
joys of mud and its inhabitants followed by their predators (the
birds and fishes) as the tide makes up the creek. We enjoy the
pleasure of sitting quietly on the mud, albeit with the starboard
bilge sinking in the mud, just watching the various bird types
going about their business of surviving.
