-You'll be fine. -I have every faith in you. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
-I've been given the captain's hat -since I'm the skipper. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:27 | |
-And you're the crewman. I hope -the captain and crew stay sober. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:32 | |
-Imagine trying to turn the boat -in this morning's fog... | 0:01:32 | 0:01:36 | |
-..when the captain -and crew are drunk! | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |

-..crossing the sandy Abermenai Point -to Caernarfon Bay. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
-20 seconds have gone by -and he hasn't shouted a thing. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:08 | |
-A cuppa and a sausage sandwich! | 0:02:08 | 0:02:09 | |
-A cuppa and a sausage sandwich! - -I spoke too soon. Sorry? | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
-Cuppa and sausage sandwich, please! | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
-Cuppa and sausage sandwich, please! - -Coming up, Captain! | 0:02:14 | 0:02:16 | |
-Your sausage sandwich is ready, -Your Excellency. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
-Great sandwich. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
-Nice? | 0:02:25 | 0:02:26 | |
-Do you mind -if I have a sausage sandwich? | 0:02:29 | 0:02:33 | |
-Haven't you had two? | 0:02:33 | 0:02:33 | |
-Haven't you had two? - -No, just one. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
-We have two each. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
-They're great sausages. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
-Home-made sausages from Brynsiencyn. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
-I can come again then -if I bring sausages? | 0:02:43 | 0:02:46 | |
-I'll be a crewman any time -for sausages like that! | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
-We're right on the bar now. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:06 | |
-There's only 3.66 metres -of water beneath us. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:10 | |
-Years ago, the old seamen from -Llanddwyn joined their ships... | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
-..and were all sent this way from -Caernarfon after clearing the bar. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:19 | |
-My Uncle Iwan was the last -of the island's skippers. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:23 | |
-Uncle Iwan was a bit of a case. | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
-I remember him being around -when I was a child. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
-He'd tell me stories -about the sea... | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
-..and places like Valparaiso, -Taltal and Montevideo. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:38 | |
-John Williams was a skipper -and he sailed this way too. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
-Now I've bought a boat. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:44 | |
-Now I've bought a boat. - -And you're crossing Caernarfon Bar. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
-Where my uncle brought in ships. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:48 | |
-Where my uncle brought in ships. - -What would Uncle Iwan make of this? | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
-He'd love it, without a doubt. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
-We've crossed the bar safely. -Hooray! | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
-That's one tick in your favour. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
-You'd better believe it! | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
-You only need to wind it around -about three times. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
-Unwind it all from the winch. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:14 | |
-It's tangled up. It's getting worse. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:18 | |
-Is it? -Yes, it's like a ball of wool. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
-Some early-morning knitting, -Mr Captain? | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
-Nobody's at the helm, -but never mind. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:27 | |
-Turn it with one hand. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:31 | |
-Llanddwyn is out of sight now. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:34 | |
-We don't know where we are! | 0:04:34 | 0:04:36 | |
-It should go in now. -You're the captain. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
-Do I need this? | 0:04:43 | 0:04:44 | |
-Do I need this? - -No, because there's not much wind. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:47 | |
-Don't you need the winch to do that? | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
-Don't you need the winch to do that? - -No. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
-Can I use that? | 0:04:55 | 0:04:56 | |
-Can I use that? - -No, you can't. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:57 | |
-It creates too much strain -as it pulls down on it. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:01 | |
-You're almost there now. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:03 | |
-Now you've hoisted your sails. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
-Now you've hoisted your sails. - -But there's no wind. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
-Should we take them down? | 0:05:09 | 0:05:10 | |
-Should we take them down? - -It's up to you, you're the skipper. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:12 | |
-You've just hoisted them, so -I suggest we leave them for a while. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:17 | |
-You've just had a burst -of physical exercise. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:21 | |
-It's made me burp like an old sheep! | 0:05:21 | 0:05:25 | |
-The sausage is to blame for that. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:27 | |
-Well, I enjoyed it! | 0:05:27 | 0:05:29 | |
-They pass Llanddwyn Island, -Malltraeth Bay and Aberffraw. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:34 | |
-Before reaching Rhoscolyn... | 0:05:34 | 0:05:36 | |
-..they receive a radio message -from the Coast Guard. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:40 | |
-If you could just stay with us. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:42 | |
-Please be advised -not to try and touch it. Over. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:47 | |
-They've just recovered a body -from Malltraeth Bay. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:07 | |
-A small fishing boat -radioed it in... | 0:06:07 | 0:06:12 | |
-..to the Holyhead Coast Guard. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
-They've advised him -to stay with the body. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:18 | |
-They don't know how long the body -has been in the water. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:23 | |
-As Nain would say, "You can't -mess around with David Jones." | 0:06:23 | 0:06:27 | |
-It makes you think, doesn't it? | 0:06:28 | 0:06:30 | |
-Yes. It makes me feel very sad. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
-We have a great view -of the South Stack lighthouse. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:47 | |
-It's in a wonderful spot. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:50 | |
-On passing South Stack, Captain -Jones gets a call of nature... | 0:06:50 | 0:06:54 | |
-..not a call -from the Coast Guard this time! | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
-Don't! Don't! | 0:07:02 | 0:07:05 | |
-Have you finished? | 0:07:07 | 0:07:08 | |
-Yes. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:10 | |
-Yes. - -Don't throw it over that side. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
-Throw it that side to prevent -the wind from blowing it back in! | 0:07:12 | 0:07:16 | |
-It'll all come back in. | 0:07:18 | 0:07:20 | |
-Mind you don't go too far over. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
-Mind you don't go too far over. - -Don't! | 0:07:24 | 0:07:25 | |
-You did something then, didn't you? | 0:07:28 | 0:07:30 | |
-I did nothing! | 0:07:30 | 0:07:32 | |
-He's starting to lose patience now. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:35 | |
-I've set him a challenge -of sailing around the island... | 0:07:35 | 0:07:39 | |
-..without the use of the engine. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:41 | |
-He's started to groan a little... | 0:07:42 | 0:07:44 | |
-..but we'll see how it goes. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:47 | |
-But I think he'll win in the end -because he's the captain. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
-It's pointless -when he have an engine. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
-It's up to you. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:55 | |
-It's up to you. - -This is getting very boring. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
-Aren't you enjoying it? -I think it's fun. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:02 | |
-The challenge for me... | 0:08:02 | 0:08:04 | |
-..is to sail around South Stack -with no engine power. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:08 | |
-But you're the captain. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
-Eventually the wind picks up -and the captain's mood is lifted. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:14 | |
-We're going to jibe now. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
-Push the helm that way. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:21 | |
-(BLEEP!)(BLEEP!) thing! | 0:08:21 | 0:08:23 | |
-There you go. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:27 | |
-This is nice. -This is how I like to sail. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:31 | |
-There's plenty of wind -but it's quiet enough... | 0:08:31 | 0:08:34 | |
-..to have a conversation. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
-So that was South Stack. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
-What are we -going to do tonight then? | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
-An early night? | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
-We'll sleep here. Are you hungry? | 0:08:49 | 0:08:51 | |
-We'll sleep here. Are you hungry? - -I'm famished. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:53 | |
-There's a great curry house -in Newry Street, Holyhead. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:57 | |
-Look what's coming behind us. | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
-One of the ferries from Ireland. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:06 | |
-Holyhead Harbour will be their -overnight stop, but they must hurry. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:12 | |
-We need some speed. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
-Here she comes. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:17 | |
-FOGHORN BLARES | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
-OK. Middle. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:32 | |
-To the middle now? | 0:09:33 | 0:09:34 | |
-To the middle now? - -No, not yet. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:36 | |
-Which way now? | 0:09:37 | 0:09:39 | |
-We'll do it again. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:41 | |
-We'll do it again. - -Why? | 0:09:41 | 0:09:42 | |
-We're heading into that wall. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
-The wind is blowing -from that direction. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
-We don't want wind power, -we want engine power. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:56 | |
-We almost had it then. | 0:09:57 | 0:09:59 | |
-Welcome to Holyhead, sir. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:04 | |
-Thank you, sir. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:06 | |
-Have you got it? | 0:10:12 | 0:10:13 | |
-Have you got it? - -Yes. Where's the rope? | 0:10:13 | 0:10:15 | |
-I'm not sure if we can moor it here. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:21 | |
-I'm not sure if we can moor it here. - -This is worse than the boat. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:23 | |
-He's a very good first mate. I'm -grateful to him that we've arrived. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:35 | |
-I'm famished - I want a curry. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |
-While we were busy fiddling -and bobbing back and forth... | 0:10:38 | 0:10:42 | |
-..the 3.15pm ferry came in to dock. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:46 | |
-One of the questions -the captain asked was... | 0:10:46 | 0:10:49 | |
-.."What would you like me to hit - -the ferry or the wall?" | 0:10:49 | 0:10:54 | |
-We have quite a distance -to cover tomorrow past Carmel Head. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:59 | |
-We'll finally end up in the Menai. -I don't know how he'll handle that. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:04 | |
-Things will happen quickly. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
-He says he's going to buy me a curry -but I might be the one paying. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:11 | |
-We have to start out at six -if we're going to make it. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:28 | |
-I'm doubtful, you know. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:30 | |
-Is eating a whole chilli a wise -thing to do before hitting the bunk? | 0:11:32 | 0:11:36 | |
-Goodness, that's hot. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:39 | |
-That was a dreadful thing to do! | 0:11:40 | 0:11:42 | |
-It was hot, wasn't it? | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
-That's hot too. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:51 | |
-I've just bitten -the blinking prawn's tail. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:56 | |
-Yuck! | 0:12:00 | 0:12:01 | |
-Back to the marina -for a good night's sleep... | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |
-..before the hardest and most -dangerous leg of the voyage... | 0:12:05 | 0:12:10 | |
-..in the morning. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:11 | |
-Are you alright? | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
-That one was putrid! | 0:12:22 | 0:12:24 | |
-Sorry! I knew having an Indian was a -bad idea, knowing we were on a boat! | 0:12:24 | 0:12:29 | |
-I'm sitting on deck -because his snoring is relentless. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:42 | |
-It's non-stop. -It's like sleeping with a chainsaw. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:46 | |

-I've just got up. It's about five. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:03 | |
-I slept well. I woke at three with -heartburn after eating that chilli. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:08 | |
-It was a fantastic curry -apart from that blooming chilli. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:12 | |
-I'll be better -after a tablet and some water. | 0:13:13 | 0:13:16 | |
-He slept on deck. -He said I was snoring. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:18 | |
-But that's nonsense, I don't snore! | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
-We're packed and ready to go. -Every second counts today. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:25 | |
-We have to be in Beaumaris -by what time did we say? | 0:13:25 | 0:13:29 | |
-About 11.30-12.00pm. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:31 | |
-John is up against it if we're going -to reach the Swillies in two tides. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:39 | |
-We're going through Carmel Head -which is two hours away... | 0:13:39 | 0:13:44 | |
-..and the tide -is currently against us. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
-The water from Liverpool Bay -passes through Carmel Head... | 0:13:47 | 0:13:51 | |
-..and will push us -towards Bardsey Sound. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:54 | |
-We need to time it right. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:56 | |
-Then it's a sprint -to reach the Swillies by midday. | 0:13:57 | 0:14:01 | |
-If it's any later, -the tide will have turned... | 0:14:01 | 0:14:05 | |
-..and it will try to push us -through the Swillies... | 0:14:05 | 0:14:08 | |
-..and we don't want that. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:10 | |
-John's challenge -is all about timing. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:13 | |
-And there's always time for a story. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
-It was here in Holyhead... | 0:14:18 | 0:14:21 | |
-..that my great-great-grandfather, -John Pierce... | 0:14:21 | 0:14:26 | |
-..worked on the ferries. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:28 | |
-He later became a boatswain. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:30 | |
-He brought -the first gramophone to Holyhead. | 0:14:31 | 0:14:35 | |
-Are you -heading straight for that boat? | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
-No, I'll try and avoid it. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:40 | |
-No, I'll try and avoid it. - -These big ships scare me. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:42 | |
-They leave Holyhead Bay -and head for the Skerries... | 0:14:46 | 0:14:50 | |
-..situated -off the north coast of Anglesey. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:53 | |
-My Number One is at the helm. | 0:15:11 | 0:15:13 | |
-It's starting to get chilly. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
-I asked Number One this morning -if I should wear a hat... | 0:15:15 | 0:15:20 | |
-..and he said, -"No, no, you'll be fine." | 0:15:20 | 0:15:23 | |
-It's incredibly cold. -I regret not bringing my thermals. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:28 | |
-The tide is pushing us. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:34 | |
-The Skerries haven't moved... | 0:15:35 | 0:15:37 | |
-..though we're -sailing away from them. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |
-The tide -is dragging us towards them. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:42 | |
-This comes across. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:47 | |
-Have you spotted Wylfa yet? | 0:15:51 | 0:15:53 | |
-Have you spotted Wylfa yet? - -Yes. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:54 | |
-Here's a history lesson -for you, Number One. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:06 | |
-Llanbadrig Church -is over there in the distance. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:09 | |
-It was there that St Patrick... | 0:16:10 | 0:16:12 | |
-..founded -the very first Christian colony. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:16 | |
-This is the island -they call West Mouse. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:21 | |
-Middle Mouse. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
-Middle Mouse. - -Middle Mouse? | 0:16:23 | 0:16:25 | |
-It's known in Welsh as Ynys Badrig -(Patrick's Island). | 0:16:25 | 0:16:29 | |
-St Patrick -lived as a hermit on that island... | 0:16:29 | 0:16:33 | |
-..and eventually left -to take Christianity to Ireland... | 0:16:33 | 0:16:37 | |
-..in order to civilize -drunk and debauched Irishmen. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:41 | |
-This is called -Trwyn Y Mwnci in Welsh. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:48 | |
-I didn't know Trwyn Y Mwnci -could be found on Anglesey! | 0:16:55 | 0:16:59 | |
-The men continue on their voyage -past Carmel Head... | 0:16:59 | 0:17:03 | |
-..towards Pwynt Leinws. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
-Suddenly they enter rough sea... | 0:17:11 | 0:17:14 | |
-..and thick fog descends. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:17 | |
-I'm very relieved now. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:19 | |
-We timed it so we'd be here by nine -and it's nine o'clock on the dot. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:24 | |
-But it's getting choppy. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:27 | |
-We're in rough seas now. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
-You can hear the foghorn -from Pwynt Leinws. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:34 | |
-We're bobbing up and down. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:37 | |
-There's enough room. -I need to sit down. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:51 | |
-It was very choppy back there. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:52 | |
-It was very choppy back there. - -Yes, indeed. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:54 | |
-I'm soaking. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:55 | |
-But we got through it. -Take a look behind. | 0:17:56 | 0:17:59 | |
-Yes, I can see. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:01 | |
-We've past Pwynt Leinws -and now we're into open sea... | 0:18:04 | 0:18:08 | |
-..until we reach Puffin Islands, -if we can find them... | 0:18:08 | 0:18:13 | |
-..near the Menai Estuary. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:15 | |
-Is there more than one then? | 0:18:15 | 0:18:17 | |
-It's called Puffin Island, is it? -Sorry! | 0:18:17 | 0:18:22 | |
-Unless the puffins -have been multiplying overnight! | 0:18:22 | 0:18:26 | |
-Mistress Wilful is going full pelt -on wind and engine power. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:32 | |
-They should reach -Puffin Island in time. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
-Just as Dilwyn -was about to pee overboard... | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
-..he noticed -that the tiller was loose. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:42 | |
-We were afraid this might happen. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:46 | |
-Both of us need to keep -a close eye on that from now on. | 0:18:47 | 0:18:50 | |
-Tape is the only thing -holding the tiller in place. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:54 | |
-In rough seas, -this could slow them down. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:57 | |
-They might not reach -the dangerous Swillies in time. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:02 | |
-We're in rough sea now -and the wind has picked up... | 0:19:05 | 0:19:10 | |
-..between the island and Anglesey. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:12 | |
-We're entering the channel -between Penmon and Puffin Island. | 0:19:13 | 0:19:16 | |
-I'll take over now -because it's going to be rough. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:20 | |
-We'll do the same as last time. -Move forward. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:23 | |
-Have you got it? | 0:19:23 | 0:19:24 | |
-Have you got it? - -Yes. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:26 | |
-I'm handing over to you then. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:28 | |
-It's going to be a bumpy ride. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
-I know. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:36 | |
-What's our speed, Number One? | 0:19:51 | 0:19:53 | |
-We're up against the biggest tide... | 0:19:54 | 0:19:57 | |
-..and the strongest wind. | 0:19:57 | 0:19:59 | |
-Don't be alarmed -but we're not far off nine knots. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:03 | |
-As they enter the Menai, they break -Mistress Wilful's top speed record. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:11 | |
-This is a good strait. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:13 | |
-Once again, they're cutting it fine. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:21 | |
-They must follow the channel -past Beaumaris towards the Swillies. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:26 | |
-The Swillies, -known as Pwll Ceris in Welsh... | 0:20:26 | 0:20:30 | |
-..is the channel between -Menai Bridge and Britannia Bridge. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:34 | |
-The waves are choppy. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:36 | |
-Look behind you. -It's about a force six. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:39 | |
-You're entering -the Swillies in a force six. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:42 | |
-We have to pass underneath -the middle of Menai Bridge. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:51 | |
-"High fortress above the sea the -world drives its carriages across it | 0:20:54 | 0:21:00 | |
-"And you, all you ships of the sea, -pass beneath its chains." | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
-The notorious Swillies... | 0:21:05 | 0:21:07 | |
-..is a dangerous place -in which to sail. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
-It is narrow with a strong current. | 0:21:11 | 0:21:13 | |
-Where do I head for? | 0:21:13 | 0:21:15 | |
-Where do I head for? - -Go back. Don't go that way. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:17 | |
-Away from you. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:19 | |
-Away from you. - -I thought you meant towards me. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:21 | |
-Go straight ahead, leaving enough -room for the boat approaching us. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:26 | |
-Do I steer towards it? | 0:21:27 | 0:21:28 | |
-Do I steer towards it? - -It's OK. | 0:21:28 | 0:21:29 | |
-He's warning me not to approach. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:32 | |
-Look at the base of the bridge -and you'll notice... | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
-..two poles beside each other. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:39 | |
-Both are in line with each other. -Veer towards them. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:43 | |
-Turn towards them. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:47 | |
-Perfect. Keep in line with them now. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:51 | |
-Turn and aim for -the middle of the bridge. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:01 | |
-The middle of the first arch? | 0:22:02 | 0:22:03 | |
-The middle of the first arch? - -Yes. There are rocks at the base. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:06 | |
-It's not behaving. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:13 | |
-Congratulations. You've got through -the Swillies on your first voyage. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:25 | |
-Well done. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:26 | |
-Time to relax now as they sail back -leisurely to Caernarfon. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:31 | |
-John has fulfilled his desire -of sailing around the island. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:36 | |
-Buying a boat was a great idea. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
-I think he's enjoyed himself. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:42 | |
-He's full of it at the moment. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:45 | |
-Even in the roughest waters... | 0:22:45 | 0:22:48 | |
-..he was -completely competent and happy. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:51 | |
-I hope he'll go on -to do some sailing courses... | 0:22:51 | 0:22:54 | |
-..to build his confidence. | 0:22:55 | 0:22:57 | |
-He'll get years of joy -from Mistress Wilful. | 0:22:57 | 0:23:00 | |
-I feel incredible... | 0:23:00 | 0:23:03 | |
-..that I've achieved -something so unforgettable. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:07 | |
