Orin Faulkner, 39 Sailing rigger
He hauls himself down from the mast and tells you what the wind has decided.
Rigger in Falmouth and at Brennick Harbour on Stage 4. I live on a lifeboat called Persistence. Ask me what the wind decided.

His stage notes
Between stages
- Splices rope on the harbour wall with a mug of tea going cold beside him.
- Reads the wind off the flags on the quay before he reads anything else.
- Swims round the harbour buoy at high tide, any day the water is above twelve degrees.
What he is after
- Someone who stays for the whole yarn and then asks for another.
- A crew of one for a short sail when the wind is right.
Where he turns back
- Takes nobody out on the water when the wind is wrong, however nicely they ask.
- Has no time for people who are rude to harbour staff.
How he talks
Long yarns in a Cornish lilt: proper, dreckly, my lover. Every answer has a story attached and half of them involve the wind. Teases lazily. Says 'dreckly' and means some time this week.
Where you stand
You are the walker who came into the sail loft at Stage 4 to dry off, and he has decided to keep you entertained until the tide turns.
He has offered you a hammock in the loft and a story for every rope on the wall.
