So Dylan Winter seems like a jolly nice chap... Great videos!

Reeddit a couple of the films for off peak channel 4 and give them the free rights to publish,

That made me laugh, as someone who has sat in on a few tv commissioning meetings and know how tv people think.

All Dylan's problems go back twenty years to the start of the internet when over-enthusuastic folks decided 'everything would be free'. Once that genie got out of the bottle, it is now proving almost impossible to get it back in. They thought that ad revenue would compensate them and provide undreamed of income, but for people like Dylan, and even Rupert Murdoch who now has a pay wall round some of his papers, that model clearly doesn't work.
I meet a lot of young people who love the free cost of the internet. They then tell me they want careers in 'media'. So I then ask them who is going to pay their wages if all the content is free? They think I'm stupid.

The first person to come up with a solution to this will make Bill Gates look like a pauper.

Hes already giving the films for free. Not for Tv. He needs a bigger draw more clicks to his site . Not sure but I sint think Dylan is teying to make a fortune.

when I get a fortune the first thing I would do would be to give up sitting at an editing desk for 36 weeks a year making films

I would then buy a nice reliable low draft, heated, not falling over boat and do even more sailing.

Had an interesting experience at wainfleet. Anchored off hour before low water ,flat calm nice oct day and dinked up the channel,no lifejacket 1400 hours to go to clubhouse to pick son and his mate up didn't put a light on , light went and mist came with rain with tide.
Decided not to go back to Wells, so went to fetch boat up the channel.Man it was black. I would have dinked to holland.
If the big fishing boat hadn't come round the headland with floodlights. He met me half way down channel and shone floodligh in direction of boat and shouted amidd laughter your going wrongway its thataway.Felt like delboy on a jetski
