John starts his journey in Plymouth and heads up the River Tamar travelling well beyond the Tamar Bridge from the industry of Plymouth and into the heart of the Devon countryside. Carefully timing his voyage up river with the tides – the river changes from a wide, shallow meander to a much narrower, faster flowing river. Many of the villages in the rural heartlands of the county owe their existence to the 19th century boom in copper mining, although the river’s association with mineral mining goes back much further.
The following morning starts with dolphin watching on route to Exmouth and a trip into the River Exe estuary with its floating café frequented by watersports enthusiasts. Heading back into open sea heading west to Bigbury Bay into which the estuaries of three rivers flow. John’s personal favourite, the Erme, is completely unspoilt, but its shallow estuary ensures that access is restricted by the tide. The trip ends with a rare sighting of a pod of pilot whales, just off the coast.
This is the Devon you’ve never seen before…

West Bay Sea Rescue
We happened to be filming at West Bay (Dorset) on Saturday 18th April when we caught this dramatic sea rescue on film.
Not sure how the girl who was in trouble got into the water - she may have slipped off the rocks - but a young guy dived in to save her and another clamboured down the rocks to pull her out of the water.
The girl was later taken to hospital - we think she was hypothermic because the water was actually very cold, even though it was a beautiful sunny day.
The film is a little shaky because it was shot hand-held.

Steve Bunker Dec. 7, 2003 Oral History Interview
Steve Bunker's background and a major love is the sea. Also a history buff, he originally came to Baltimore to help build a Baltimore Clipper in Baltimore Harbor, stayed on for a few years as Baltimore's maritime historian and eventually opened his shop in Fell's Point, The China Sea, a marine-salvage and antique shop complete with live parrots. A community leader for many years, Steve is remembered for representing the working waterfront community and helping to moderate development. He and Sharon Bondroff moved their shop to Maine in 1999 after they decided they could no longer afford the rents in Fell's Point.
In this interview, Steve tells his stories about Fell's Point and its history. The interview was conducted in his home in Maine on February 8, 2003 by Jacquie and Kraig Greff of Tonal Vision LLC in preparation for the documentary, Fell's Point Out of Time.
