I'm awaiting Patreon to approve my page, but in the meantime a lighthearted look at why I am starting a Patreon. Tell me how pathetic my pitch is, go on, you know you want too 😁 http://www.youtube.com/@junk_rig_sailor1698 "Hi there, In the tradition of the ubiquitous sailing channels popping up here, there and everywhere, I too thought I would join the fun - so have started a Patreon account linked to my YouTube channel.
