Mission
The people we’ve sailed with and the environments we’ve struggled to overcome have left us salt covered, weather worn, and in awe of the sea. Through digital and hard copy media, Dirty Sailor Company documents the attitudes and beliefs of seafarers, across all seafaring sects, to promote maritime culture and heritage in the 21st century.
In this condition, like all true seamen, who are perhaps the least of all mankind, given to forethought, they gave it over. – Robinson Crusoe
