We started our You Tube Channel under the name Splice and Dice. We wanted a channel that reflected our two main hobbies, Sailing and Cooking, so the Splice was for Sailing and the Dice for cooking. We soon learned that they were not good bed fellows, but we created lots of content before Salty Lass and here is just some of our stories.

Raising money for the RNLI
The RNLI turned 200 years old on 4th March 2024. So as sailors and people who promote the joy of sailing, we thought that we would like to raise just £200. What we hope is that other people take up the shout and raise their own £200. In the last 200 years the RNLI have saved over 144,000 lives and yet they are funded entirely by people like you. They are not government funded.
