-Actor John Pierce Jones

-has bought a boat...

0:00:120:00:15

-..but he's not much of a sailor.

0:00:150:00:18

-His voyage with Dilwyn Morgan from

-Pwllheli to Caernarfon was eventful.

0:00:190:00:23

-I can't get up!

0:00:240:00:25

-These (BLEEP!) gloves!

0:00:260:00:28

-Whay!

0:00:280:00:30

-How are we for diesel?

0:00:300:00:32

-How are we for diesel?

-

-It's a bit of a problem.

0:00:320:00:34

-I'm worried about sailing

-around Anglesey.

0:00:360:00:39

-Yes, that is the challenge

-awaiting them.

0:00:400:00:42

-Realizing the dream of sailing

-around John's native Anglesey.

0:00:420:00:47

-Today's the day I have to prove

-that I'm capable of sailing...

0:00:520:00:56

-..despite having

-very little instruction.

0:00:560:00:59

-But I'm about to embark

-on my maiden voyage around Anglesey.

0:01:000:01:04

-I'm the skipper

-and Dilwyn will be my Number One.

0:01:040:01:08

-I'm slightly nervous,

-but in spite of the nerves...

0:01:080:01:13

-..I'm looking forward to it.

0:01:130:01:16

-You'll be fine.

-I have every faith in you.

0:01:160:01:20

-I've been given the captain's hat

-since I'm the skipper.

0:01:230:01:27

-And you're the crewman. I hope

-the captain and crew stay sober.

0:01:270:01:32

-Imagine trying to turn the boat

-in this morning's fog...

0:01:320:01:36

-..when the captain

-and crew are drunk!

0:01:370:01:39

-Dilwyn

-is a very experienced sailor...

0:01:400:01:43

-..but John

-has his own way of doing things.

0:01:430:01:46

-Am I going the right way?

0:01:480:01:49

-Am I going the right way?

-

-Llanddwyn's that way!

0:01:490:01:51

-They're finally on their way...

0:01:570:02:00

-..crossing the sandy Abermenai Point

-to Caernarfon Bay.

0:02:000:02:04

-20 seconds have gone by

-and he hasn't shouted a thing.

0:02:040:02:08

-A cuppa and a sausage sandwich!

0:02:080:02:09

-A cuppa and a sausage sandwich!

-

-I spoke too soon. Sorry?

0:02:090:02:12

-Cuppa and sausage sandwich, please!

0:02:120:02:14

-Cuppa and sausage sandwich, please!

-

-Coming up, Captain!

0:02:140:02:16

-Your sausage sandwich is ready,

-Your Excellency.

0:02:170:02:21

-Great sandwich.

0:02:230:02:25

-Nice?

0:02:250:02:26

-Do you mind

-if I have a sausage sandwich?

0:02:290:02:33

-Haven't you had two?

0:02:330:02:33

-Haven't you had two?

-

-No, just one.

0:02:330:02:35

-We have two each.

0:02:350:02:38

-They're great sausages.

0:02:380:02:40

-Home-made sausages from Brynsiencyn.

0:02:400:02:43

-I can come again then

-if I bring sausages?

0:02:430:02:46

-I'll be a crewman any time

-for sausages like that!

0:02:460:02:50

-We're right on the bar now.

0:03:040:03:06

-There's only 3.66 metres

-of water beneath us.

0:03:060:03:10

-Years ago, the old seamen from

-Llanddwyn joined their ships...

0:03:100:03:14

-..and were all sent this way from

-Caernarfon after clearing the bar.

0:03:140:03:19

-My Uncle Iwan was the last

-of the island's skippers.

0:03:190:03:23

-Uncle Iwan was a bit of a case.

0:03:240:03:27

-I remember him being around

-when I was a child.

0:03:280:03:31

-He'd tell me stories

-about the sea...

0:03:310:03:33

-..and places like Valparaiso,

-Taltal and Montevideo.

0:03:340:03:38

-John Williams was a skipper

-and he sailed this way too.

0:03:390:03:42

-Now I've bought a boat.

0:03:430:03:44

-Now I've bought a boat.

-

-And you're crossing Caernarfon Bar.

0:03:440:03:47

-Where my uncle brought in ships.

0:03:470:03:48

-Where my uncle brought in ships.

-

-What would Uncle Iwan make of this?

0:03:480:03:51

-He'd love it, without a doubt.

0:03:510:03:53

-We've crossed the bar safely.

-Hooray!

0:03:540:03:57

-That's one tick in your favour.

0:03:580:04:00

-You'd better believe it!

0:04:020:04:04

-You only need to wind it around

-about three times.

0:04:080:04:11

-Unwind it all from the winch.

0:04:110:04:14

-It's tangled up. It's getting worse.

0:04:140:04:18

-Is it?

-Yes, it's like a ball of wool.

0:04:180:04:21

-Some early-morning knitting,

-Mr Captain?

0:04:210:04:24

-Nobody's at the helm,

-but never mind.

0:04:250:04:27

-Turn it with one hand.

0:04:300:04:31

-Llanddwyn is out of sight now.

0:04:320:04:34

-We don't know where we are!

0:04:340:04:36

-It should go in now.

-You're the captain.

0:04:400:04:42

-Do I need this?

0:04:430:04:44

-Do I need this?

-

-No, because there's not much wind.

0:04:440:04:47

-Don't you need the winch to do that?

0:04:470:04:49

-Don't you need the winch to do that?

-

-No.

0:04:490:04:51

-Can I use that?

0:04:550:04:56

-Can I use that?

-

-No, you can't.

0:04:560:04:57

-It creates too much strain

-as it pulls down on it.

0:04:580:05:01

-You're almost there now.

0:05:010:05:03

-Now you've hoisted your sails.

0:05:040:05:06

-Now you've hoisted your sails.

-

-But there's no wind.

0:05:060:05:09

-Should we take them down?

0:05:090:05:10

-Should we take them down?

-

-It's up to you, you're the skipper.

0:05:100:05:12

-You've just hoisted them, so

-I suggest we leave them for a while.

0:05:130:05:17

-You've just had a burst

-of physical exercise.

0:05:170:05:21

-It's made me burp like an old sheep!

0:05:210:05:25

-The sausage is to blame for that.

0:05:250:05:27

-Well, I enjoyed it!

0:05:270:05:29

-They pass Llanddwyn Island,

-Malltraeth Bay and Aberffraw.

0:05:290:05:34

-Before reaching Rhoscolyn...

0:05:340:05:36

-..they receive a radio message

-from the Coast Guard.

0:05:360:05:40

-If you could just stay with us.

0:05:400:05:42

-Please be advised

-not to try and touch it. Over.

0:05:420:05:47

-They've just recovered a body

-from Malltraeth Bay.

0:06:030:06:07

-A small fishing boat

-radioed it in...

0:06:070:06:12

-..to the Holyhead Coast Guard.

0:06:120:06:15

-They've advised him

-to stay with the body.

0:06:150:06:18

-They don't know how long the body

-has been in the water.

0:06:180:06:23

-As Nain would say, "You can't

-mess around with David Jones."

0:06:230:06:27

-It makes you think, doesn't it?

0:06:280:06:30

-Yes. It makes me feel very sad.

0:06:310:06:34

-We have a great view

-of the South Stack lighthouse.

0:06:440:06:47

-It's in a wonderful spot.

0:06:480:06:50

-On passing South Stack, Captain

-Jones gets a call of nature...

0:06:500:06:54

-..not a call

-from the Coast Guard this time!

0:06:540:06:57

-Don't! Don't!

0:07:020:07:05

-Have you finished?

0:07:070:07:08

-Yes.

0:07:090:07:10

-Yes.

-

-Don't throw it over that side.

0:07:100:07:12

-Throw it that side to prevent

-the wind from blowing it back in!

0:07:120:07:16

-It'll all come back in.

0:07:180:07:20

-Mind you don't go too far over.

0:07:220:07:24

-Mind you don't go too far over.

-

-Don't!

0:07:240:07:25

-You did something then, didn't you?

0:07:280:07:30

-I did nothing!

0:07:300:07:32

-He's starting to lose patience now.

0:07:320:07:35

-I've set him a challenge

-of sailing around the island...

0:07:350:07:39

-..without the use of the engine.

0:07:390:07:41

-He's started to groan a little...

0:07:420:07:44

-..but we'll see how it goes.

0:07:450:07:47

-But I think he'll win in the end

-because he's the captain.

0:07:470:07:51

-It's pointless

-when he have an engine.

0:07:510:07:54

-It's up to you.

0:07:550:07:55

-It's up to you.

-

-This is getting very boring.

0:07:550:07:58

-Aren't you enjoying it?

-I think it's fun.

0:07:580:08:02

-The challenge for me...

0:08:020:08:04

-..is to sail around South Stack

-with no engine power.

0:08:040:08:08

-But you're the captain.

0:08:080:08:10

-Eventually the wind picks up

-and the captain's mood is lifted.

0:08:100:08:14

-We're going to jibe now.

0:08:150:08:17

-Push the helm that way.

0:08:170:08:21

-(BLEEP!)(BLEEP!) thing!

0:08:210:08:23

-There you go.

0:08:260:08:27

-This is nice.

-This is how I like to sail.

0:08:280:08:31

-There's plenty of wind

-but it's quiet enough...

0:08:310:08:34

-..to have a conversation.

0:08:340:08:36

-So that was South Stack.

0:08:390:08:42

-What are we

-going to do tonight then?

0:08:440:08:46

-An early night?

0:08:470:08:49

-We'll sleep here. Are you hungry?

0:08:490:08:51

-We'll sleep here. Are you hungry?

-

-I'm famished.

0:08:510:08:53

-There's a great curry house

-in Newry Street, Holyhead.

0:08:530:08:57

-Look what's coming behind us.

0:08:570:09:00

-One of the ferries from Ireland.

0:09:040:09:06

-Holyhead Harbour will be their

-overnight stop, but they must hurry.

0:09:070:09:12

-We need some speed.

0:09:120:09:14

-Here she comes.

0:09:140:09:17

-FOGHORN BLARES

0:09:170:09:19

-OK. Middle.

0:09:290:09:32

-To the middle now?

0:09:330:09:34

-To the middle now?

-

-No, not yet.

0:09:340:09:36

-Which way now?

0:09:370:09:39

-We'll do it again.

0:09:390:09:41

-We'll do it again.

-

-Why?

0:09:410:09:42

-We're heading into that wall.

0:09:440:09:46

-The wind is blowing

-from that direction.

0:09:500:09:53

-We don't want wind power,

-we want engine power.

0:09:530:09:56

-We almost had it then.

0:09:570:09:59

-Welcome to Holyhead, sir.

0:10:020:10:04

-Thank you, sir.

0:10:040:10:06

-Have you got it?

0:10:120:10:13

-Have you got it?

-

-Yes. Where's the rope?

0:10:130:10:15

-I'm not sure if we can moor it here.

0:10:190:10:21

-I'm not sure if we can moor it here.

-

-This is worse than the boat.

0:10:210:10:23

-He's a very good first mate. I'm

-grateful to him that we've arrived.

0:10:310:10:35

-I'm famished - I want a curry.

0:10:360:10:38

-While we were busy fiddling

-and bobbing back and forth...

0:10:380:10:42

-..the 3.15pm ferry came in to dock.

0:10:420:10:46

-One of the questions

-the captain asked was...

0:10:460:10:49

-.."What would you like me to hit -

-the ferry or the wall?"

0:10:490:10:54

-We have quite a distance

-to cover tomorrow past Carmel Head.

0:10:550:10:59

-We'll finally end up in the Menai.

-I don't know how he'll handle that.

0:10:590:11:04

-Things will happen quickly.

0:11:040:11:06

-He says he's going to buy me a curry

-but I might be the one paying.

0:11:070:11:11

-We have to start out at six

-if we're going to make it.

0:11:250:11:28

-I'm doubtful, you know.

0:11:280:11:30

-Is eating a whole chilli a wise

-thing to do before hitting the bunk?

0:11:320:11:36

-Goodness, that's hot.

0:11:370:11:39

-That was a dreadful thing to do!

0:11:400:11:42

-It was hot, wasn't it?

0:11:460:11:48

-That's hot too.

0:11:490:11:51

-I've just bitten

-the blinking prawn's tail.

0:11:510:11:56

-Yuck!

0:12:000:12:01

-Back to the marina

-for a good night's sleep...

0:12:010:12:05

-..before the hardest and most

-dangerous leg of the voyage...

0:12:050:12:10

-..in the morning.

0:12:100:12:11

-Are you alright?

0:12:150:12:17

-That one was putrid!

0:12:220:12:24

-Sorry! I knew having an Indian was a

-bad idea, knowing we were on a boat!

0:12:240:12:29

-I'm sitting on deck

-because his snoring is relentless.

0:12:380:12:42

-It's non-stop.

-It's like sleeping with a chainsaw.

0:12:420:12:46

-I've just got up. It's about five.

0:13:000:13:03

-I slept well. I woke at three with

-heartburn after eating that chilli.

0:13:030:13:08

-It was a fantastic curry

-apart from that blooming chilli.

0:13:080:13:12

-I'll be better

-after a tablet and some water.

0:13:130:13:16

-He slept on deck.

-He said I was snoring.

0:13:160:13:18

-But that's nonsense, I don't snore!

0:13:190:13:21

-We're packed and ready to go.

-Every second counts today.

0:13:210:13:25

-We have to be in Beaumaris

-by what time did we say?

0:13:250:13:29

-About 11.30-12.00pm.

0:13:290:13:31

-John is up against it if we're going

-to reach the Swillies in two tides.

0:13:340:13:39

-We're going through Carmel Head

-which is two hours away...

0:13:390:13:44

-..and the tide

-is currently against us.

0:13:440:13:47

-The water from Liverpool Bay

-passes through Carmel Head...

0:13:470:13:51

-..and will push us

-towards Bardsey Sound.

0:13:510:13:54

-We need to time it right.

0:13:550:13:56

-Then it's a sprint

-to reach the Swillies by midday.

0:13:570:14:01

-If it's any later,

-the tide will have turned...

0:14:010:14:05

-..and it will try to push us

-through the Swillies...

0:14:050:14:08

-..and we don't want that.

0:14:090:14:10

-John's challenge

-is all about timing.

0:14:110:14:13

-And there's always time for a story.

0:14:150:14:18

-It was here in Holyhead...

0:14:180:14:21

-..that my great-great-grandfather,

-John Pierce...

0:14:210:14:26

-..worked on the ferries.

0:14:260:14:28

-He later became a boatswain.

0:14:280:14:30

-He brought

-the first gramophone to Holyhead.

0:14:310:14:35

-Are you

-heading straight for that boat?

0:14:350:14:38

-No, I'll try and avoid it.

0:14:380:14:40

-No, I'll try and avoid it.

-

-These big ships scare me.

0:14:400:14:42

-They leave Holyhead Bay

-and head for the Skerries...

0:14:460:14:50

-..situated

-off the north coast of Anglesey.

0:14:500:14:53

-My Number One is at the helm.

0:15:110:15:13

-It's starting to get chilly.

0:15:130:15:15

-I asked Number One this morning

-if I should wear a hat...

0:15:150:15:20

-..and he said,

-"No, no, you'll be fine."

0:15:200:15:23

-It's incredibly cold.

-I regret not bringing my thermals.

0:15:230:15:28

-The tide is pushing us.

0:15:320:15:34

-The Skerries haven't moved...

0:15:350:15:37

-..though we're

-sailing away from them.

0:15:370:15:40

-The tide

-is dragging us towards them.

0:15:400:15:42

-This comes across.

0:15:450:15:47

-Have you spotted Wylfa yet?

0:15:510:15:53

-Have you spotted Wylfa yet?

-

-Yes.

0:15:530:15:54

-Here's a history lesson

-for you, Number One.

0:16:030:16:06

-Llanbadrig Church

-is over there in the distance.

0:16:060:16:09

-It was there that St Patrick...

0:16:100:16:12

-..founded

-the very first Christian colony.

0:16:120:16:16

-This is the island

-they call West Mouse.

0:16:170:16:21

-Middle Mouse.

0:16:210:16:23

-Middle Mouse.

-

-Middle Mouse?

0:16:230:16:25

-It's known in Welsh as Ynys Badrig

-(Patrick's Island).

0:16:250:16:29

-St Patrick

-lived as a hermit on that island...

0:16:290:16:33

-..and eventually left

-to take Christianity to Ireland...

0:16:330:16:37

-..in order to civilize

-drunk and debauched Irishmen.

0:16:370:16:41

-This is called

-Trwyn Y Mwnci in Welsh.

0:16:460:16:48

-I didn't know Trwyn Y Mwnci

-could be found on Anglesey!

0:16:550:16:59

-The men continue on their voyage

-past Carmel Head...

0:16:590:17:03

-..towards Pwynt Leinws.

0:17:030:17:05

-Suddenly they enter rough sea...

0:17:110:17:14

-..and thick fog descends.

0:17:140:17:17

-I'm very relieved now.

0:17:170:17:19

-We timed it so we'd be here by nine

-and it's nine o'clock on the dot.

0:17:190:17:24

-But it's getting choppy.

0:17:240:17:27

-We're in rough seas now.

0:17:270:17:29

-You can hear the foghorn

-from Pwynt Leinws.

0:17:310:17:34

-We're bobbing up and down.

0:17:340:17:37

-There's enough room.

-I need to sit down.

0:17:470:17:51

-It was very choppy back there.

0:17:510:17:52

-It was very choppy back there.

-

-Yes, indeed.

0:17:520:17:54

-I'm soaking.

0:17:540:17:55

-But we got through it.

-Take a look behind.

0:17:560:17:59

-Yes, I can see.

0:17:590:18:01

-We've past Pwynt Leinws

-and now we're into open sea...

0:18:040:18:08

-..until we reach Puffin Islands,

-if we can find them...

0:18:080:18:13

-..near the Menai Estuary.

0:18:130:18:15

-Is there more than one then?

0:18:150:18:17

-It's called Puffin Island, is it?

-Sorry!

0:18:170:18:22

-Unless the puffins

-have been multiplying overnight!

0:18:220:18:26

-Mistress Wilful is going full pelt

-on wind and engine power.

0:18:280:18:32

-They should reach

-Puffin Island in time.

0:18:320:18:35

-Just as Dilwyn

-was about to pee overboard...

0:18:350:18:38

-..he noticed

-that the tiller was loose.

0:18:390:18:42

-We were afraid this might happen.

0:18:420:18:46

-Both of us need to keep

-a close eye on that from now on.

0:18:470:18:50

-Tape is the only thing

-holding the tiller in place.

0:18:510:18:54

-In rough seas,

-this could slow them down.

0:18:540:18:57

-They might not reach

-the dangerous Swillies in time.

0:18:580:19:02

-We're in rough sea now

-and the wind has picked up...

0:19:050:19:10

-..between the island and Anglesey.

0:19:100:19:12

-We're entering the channel

-between Penmon and Puffin Island.

0:19:130:19:16

-I'll take over now

-because it's going to be rough.

0:19:170:19:20

-We'll do the same as last time.

-Move forward.

0:19:200:19:23

-Have you got it?

0:19:230:19:24

-Have you got it?

-

-Yes.

0:19:240:19:26

-I'm handing over to you then.

0:19:260:19:28

-It's going to be a bumpy ride.

0:19:310:19:34

-I know.

0:19:340:19:36

-What's our speed, Number One?

0:19:510:19:53

-We're up against the biggest tide...

0:19:540:19:57

-..and the strongest wind.

0:19:570:19:59

-Don't be alarmed

-but we're not far off nine knots.

0:19:590:20:03

-As they enter the Menai, they break

-Mistress Wilful's top speed record.

0:20:050:20:11

-This is a good strait.

0:20:110:20:13

-Once again, they're cutting it fine.

0:20:180:20:21

-They must follow the channel

-past Beaumaris towards the Swillies.

0:20:210:20:26

-The Swillies,

-known as Pwll Ceris in Welsh...

0:20:260:20:30

-..is the channel between

-Menai Bridge and Britannia Bridge.

0:20:300:20:34

-The waves are choppy.

0:20:340:20:36

-Look behind you.

-It's about a force six.

0:20:360:20:39

-You're entering

-the Swillies in a force six.

0:20:390:20:42

-We have to pass underneath

-the middle of Menai Bridge.

0:20:470:20:51

-"High fortress above the sea the

-world drives its carriages across it

0:20:540:21:00

-"And you, all you ships of the sea,

-pass beneath its chains."

0:21:010:21:04

-The notorious Swillies...

0:21:050:21:07

-..is a dangerous place

-in which to sail.

0:21:070:21:10

-It is narrow with a strong current.

0:21:110:21:13

-Where do I head for?

0:21:130:21:15

-Where do I head for?

-

-Go back. Don't go that way.

0:21:150:21:17

-Away from you.

0:21:170:21:19

-Away from you.

-

-I thought you meant towards me.

0:21:190:21:21

-Go straight ahead, leaving enough

-room for the boat approaching us.

0:21:220:21:26

-Do I steer towards it?

0:21:270:21:28

-Do I steer towards it?

-

-It's OK.

0:21:280:21:29

-He's warning me not to approach.

0:21:290:21:32

-Look at the base of the bridge

-and you'll notice...

0:21:330:21:36

-..two poles beside each other.

0:21:370:21:39

-Both are in line with each other.

-Veer towards them.

0:21:400:21:43

-Turn towards them.

0:21:450:21:47

-Perfect. Keep in line with them now.

0:21:480:21:51

-Turn and aim for

-the middle of the bridge.

0:21:590:22:01

-The middle of the first arch?

0:22:020:22:03

-The middle of the first arch?

-

-Yes. There are rocks at the base.

0:22:030:22:06

-It's not behaving.

0:22:110:22:13

-Congratulations. You've got through

-the Swillies on your first voyage.

0:22:200:22:25

-Well done.

0:22:250:22:26

-Time to relax now as they sail back

-leisurely to Caernarfon.

0:22:270:22:31

-John has fulfilled his desire

-of sailing around the island.

0:22:320:22:36

-Buying a boat was a great idea.

0:22:370:22:39

-I think he's enjoyed himself.

0:22:390:22:42

-He's full of it at the moment.

0:22:420:22:45

-Even in the roughest waters...

0:22:450:22:48

-..he was

-completely competent and happy.

0:22:480:22:51

-I hope he'll go on

-to do some sailing courses...

0:22:510:22:54

-..to build his confidence.

0:22:550:22:57

-He'll get years of joy

-from Mistress Wilful.

0:22:570:23:00

-I feel incredible...

0:23:000:23:03

-..that I've achieved

-something so unforgettable.
