I spent over 55 years sailing the East Coast with over 30 based on the Deben at Ramsholt. A magical spot. I miss it all very much having just swallowed the anchor. That coast has a mystery,- a wildness which is difficult to describe to someone who has never visited it.
Thank you very much, John, for watching and commenting. The wildness, mystery, and beauty are all the more impressive as they are hidden just a few miles behind bigger towns. We were sitting at Ramsholt watching an elderly couple putting their wooden dinghy in the water and rowing out to their moored sailboat. All in great style that impressed me much. You could see that they did that for decades and still enjoyed it very much.
What a great film! You picked a beautiful part of the British Isles which most people will never see. Your film told the story very well and great skills in the cinematic shots and editing. The sailing also looked good!
Thanks for that video, sailed and canoe,d all those rivers over the years, with sevaral adventures! Once losing our boat due to not enough chain lenth, but fortunately the tide was coming in and found it upstream. A beautiful area.
Wonderful photography. Brought back so many memories. My father kept his boat on the Deben and I lived in Burnham on Crouch through out the 1960 before moving south to the Solent for work. Still sailed back to the East Coast whenever possible, the Solent is so crowded. Keep enjoying your sailing.
very nice indeed... you made an excellent job of explaining the delights of the east coast. Most of my sailing has been around the here and the mooring at "the Rocks" on the Deben is one of the nicest in England. The estuaries with their soupy waters, mud flats, shingle banks and ever shifting bars which require good timing, a decent engine and the wind in the right place are not to everyone's taste, but they are home to me now
Thank you very much, Dylan, that's an honour from someone who knows the region so well and has created a wealth of sailing films. The estuaries are often a thrill, but their beauty is a great reward. Also the people we met were very kind, and connected to the maritime history of the region. And versed sailors.
Fascinating and a beautifull though at times rough voyage to get there and back at this time of year, in a very well found boat and good seamanship.Thankyou.
Thank you, Cornilius. Yeah, the camera was lost on the way back in a wave in the North Sea, it had footage from the Deben and Orwell… The Crouch is still on our list.
Thank you! Pin Mill is very nice, we were there last year ua-cam.com/video/4mnYeREf3jo/v-deo.html Unfortunately, there was not have enough time left this year. So much to see in this beautiful region.
Wieder einmal ein tolles Video eines interessanten Törns mit unglaublich schönen Aufnahmen - Danke für´s Mitnehmen! Darf ich fragen, mit welcher Kamera die "Slow Motion-Sequenzen" des aufgewühlten Meeres und der Wellen gemacht wurden?! Danke für ein kurzes Feedback! Übrigens: Wir waren letztes Jahr auch mit einer kleinen "Flotte" (3 Segelschiffe) von Makkum nach Texel, dann direkt nach Lowestoft über Nacht gesegelt und haben im "The Royal Norfolk & Suffolk Yacht Club" angelegt und genächtigt. Danach die Ostküste runter nach Harwich und ebenfalls in den River Orwell "abgebogen". Dort dann in der "Marina Woolverstone" Halt gemacht und dann unser finales Ziel: Ipswich angesteuert. Es ist ein lohnenswertes Ziel und ich kann nur bestätigen: die Flusslandschaft ist wirklich sehenswert! Dann sind wir nonstop zurück nach Oudeschild/Texel gesegelt und einen Tag später wieder in unseren Heimathafen "Marina Makkum" eingetroffen. Wir waren insgesamt 1 Woche unterwegs. Es war ein tolles Erlebnis!
Amazing video....loved it.... beautifully filmed...👍
Thank you, Chris.

Simply perfect video, for me, one of the best I’ve seen. Thank you 🙌🏻
Thanks for the compliment!
Beautiful!
Merci beaucoup, Vincent.
Great video, well done
Thanks, Antony!

Thanks, Robert! Indeed, it's not a tourist spot, and yet it seems so quintessentially english to me…
Thanks for that video, sailed and canoe,d all those rivers over the years, with sevaral adventures! Once losing our boat due to not enough chain lenth, but fortunately the tide was coming in and found it upstream. A beautiful area.
Oh, that sounds thrilling! The more you know and sail these splendid waters, the more adventurous you get, I guess…

Thank you very much. Glad it evoked memories. How did the landscape of the Deben change since the Sixties? It looks so timeless to us visitors…
It seems to have changed very little, a few more moorings perhaps and the Ramsholt Arms has had a new coat of paint. Long May it stay that way!

I couldn't put it better.
Lovely filmmaking and storytelling. Thank you.
Thank you, Jamie.
Love it ❤
Super cinematic.
Fair winds.
Thanks and fair winds, Luis. Good that your boat work is making nice progress!
Nice trip. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, David!
Fantastic, thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Andre!
I'm on my boat on the River Colne watching this. You've made our east coast rivers look as beautiful as they truly are. Very enjoyable video. 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you Philip, that's a fine compliment. Unfortunately, we had no time left to visit the Colne and the rivers south of the Orwell - next time!
Nice videography. The east coast is my back yard. Beautiful. With many cosy creeks. Lovely to see it filmed so well.
Thank you. The east coast is indeed a beautiful sailing area.
Thanks for sharing, a lovely boat 👌
Thank you, Sam. She is indeed, best Frisian handcraft. Enjoyed your video crossing from A'dam.
Fascinating and a beautifull though at times rough voyage to get there and back at this time of year, in a very well found boat and good seamanship.Thankyou.
Thanks for watching! Yes, it was indeed a short summer this year. But the east coast must be beautiful in later autumm also!
Thank you. Excellent photography!
Thanks, Peter, very kind.
Lovely to see, thanks for sharing. Great photography, despite lost camera. We are based in the River Crouch, so these are our home waters.
Thank you, Cornilius. Yeah, the camera was lost on the way back in a wave in the North Sea, it had footage from the Deben and Orwell… The Crouch is still on our list.
Beautiful video..............If you manage to get up the Orwell again, have a drink in the Butt&Oyster at pin mill, very scenic
Thank you! Pin Mill is very nice, we were there last year ua-cam.com/video/4mnYeREf3jo/v-deo.html Unfortunately, there was not have enough time left this year. So much to see in this beautiful region.
There is a beautiful walk from Woolverstone Marina to the Butt & Oyster...can highly recommend it !

You lost a camera overboard…? 🌊 😮
Hope it wasn’t too expensive…. 👌🏼
Yeah, it went into a wave, unfortunately. We already lost a drone during the last video. Our filming is getting expensive… Thanks for watching.
