- This was my favourite trip so far this year and we seemed to see so much in one week. The sail to Falmouth was difficult as it was a strong wind on the nose. I think it must have taken around 30 hours of sailing with lots of tacking. Maxine came down on the train which took three hours! But once anchored up in Falmouth it all seemed worth it. We spent some time on the Halford river and its local coves. Sailing up the river Fal on a perfect summer day was spectacular. The highlight of the whole trip was the Falmouth Classics. This was accompanied by a festival of Sea Shanty groups from all around the UK. Every square, pub and even alleyway had old-time sea shanty songs echoing around the streets. Spectacular weather and real ale bars everywhere. I have tried something a little different with the editing of this video, let me know your thoughts below. We have now also started up a Patreon page up to help us keep filming and sailing. It is in its early stages but will develop and expand as time goes on. Patreon.com/seapigeon. Go on buy me a coffee and enjoy the Falmouth International Sea Shanty festival.
On our Patreon page there will also be over 30 minutes of some of the shanty men set to video.

Hello hw nice to see though brief, you featured my blue Sadler 26 as I was en route. she is towing my dinghy has her solar panel and is looking as I like to keep her. Great film. I missed the actual Sea Shanty ashore more was the pity. Thanks for showing it all!
Hi Kevin . i just looked back at the video and saw your boat. Did i also see you on the Dart the other day?
@@AdventuresofSeaPigeon no not in the Dart but will be next week. Safe travels to you. I really like watching your films, you certainly captivate your viewers, Congratulations!
Watched it twice in a row...beautifully filmed and edited! Had a great time lol. Felt like I had a ringside seat.
Quite a lovely, lively song!
I really enjoyed that.
Maxi looked especially fetching in her turn at the wheel and Neil was looking ruggwdly handsome as he unwound.
Please stop putting these excellently filmed and narrated videos up ! All they will do is encourage other discerning people to come down here and enjoy the secret that is Falmouth Harbour, Carrick Roads and the upper reaches of the River Fal!
Good comment but many thanks for the critique. I shall not be missing this years event.
