Under Sail

on BBC Two England

A series about sailing ships and the people who go down to the sea in them. Our Daddy
Alfred John Pengelly , 'AJ' to thousands who know him, has been sailing out of the Cornish port of Looe for more than 60 years, most of them aboard Our Daddy, a sailing lugger built in the 1920s for his father.
Our Daddy is one of the few survivors of a diminished
Cornish fishing fleet and 'AJ' is the last of a family sailing tradition stretching back 200 years.
