For those of you who don't know Dylan Winter, you simply should! He started out with £3000 in the bank, bought himself a 50 year old Mirror Offshore and set sail from Bembridge on the Isle of Wight. His mission was simple - Keep Turning Left!

An interview with Dylan Winter

This truly unique and inspiring journey has recently reached its half way point. I am delighted and privileged to be able to interview Dylan and find out more about this "Middle aged, middle class man from middle England".

As a certified MOB I can only stand an applaud. Wonderful guy, fabulous idea and he has the smarts to make the vids work.

Dylan is also, btw, an acomplished author. I've got a couple of his books but I'm pretty sure they are long out of print.

Great interview. It is interesting and focused.

I've enjoyed Dylan's media on the web. He's a rare combination of a real sailor with enough experience to route out the good stuff of sailing, in his writing as well as video-audio. He's the future and the past.

Sort of like my son and grand dad all wrapped up in one. :)

Thanks for the fun interview!

For MOBs with inquiring minds: the "American sailing magazine" Dylan writes for is "Small Craft Advisor". By and for real folk doing real things with their boats, not like the megapage super-glossy ad-collections most other boating magazines have devolved into.
