I have been a hack for a long time - never done anything like KTL

the feedback I get from sailors from all over the World is always entertaining.

I decided to send KTL DVD disks to sailors who emailed me asking for them on the basis of the generally correct assumption that they will eventually get around to paying up.

It saves a massive amount of accounting - and they seem to appreciate the inherent trust.

Six months ago I sent a set of disks to an American sailor called Gordon.

Ever since he has sent me an email every month telling me about the films and saying that he will eventually pay

this months was a classic....worth every penny.... the man is a comic genius

"Hi Dylan,

I just wanted to let you know I've watched all 4 dvd's now, twice actually----it's damn cold here right now, and I surely do appreciate the time you took to film your travels and to produce them and get them out to us to enjoy. Thank you so much for your time and skill and energy, I do hope you get more time and opportunity and good health and finances to get out there and produce more--so greedy and self-centered of me!! I am certainly waiting for the next dvd's as soon as you can get them out.

I still have to send you $25.00 for the mix-up dvd's re slow U.S. postage. Just gave that set to a young friend for her birthday, hope she gets something from it. Will remember the cash, I promise.

Thanks again Mate, you are a Goodun."

I got the following comments on my aging Big Wave Sailing youtube video.

drunken ******* with jerk off music

Excuse me captain moron but you must be an idiot running in heavy weather with your cabin wide open. Why don't you just rename the boat "SINK ME"?

etc etc

Then I re-uploaded it with royalty free music, and its disappeared from the youtube rankings, so nobody comments anymore...

Speakign of odd people, my post got interrupted by a phone call:
Caller: I would like to talk with Mohammed Saleh
Me: Wrong number
Caller: Then what is Mohammed Saleh's number?
