EPISODE 97
In this episode we work towards sealing up the timber of the hull, inside and out.
First we varnish the interior of the boat, using a traditional varnish that should hopefully hold up for decades. Then we get a serious workout with some good-old-fashioned “torture-boards”, we glue and trim plugs, and we get a little closer to painting and moving the boat. We have a bit of a change of crew as David and Rowan head back to the East coast, and we get some great help from some local guys. Meanwhile Pancho delights in a game of hide-n-seek.

However, for a lot of the subscribers to this channel, who've never seen the construction of a wooden boat like this, let alone any boat, this one is being built with pride, finesse and just share elegance. Therefore, for me and many others, it's craftsmanship at a different level.

If you love what you do you won't work a day in your life. Except if you are a boat builder, then you will work ALL the time forever. Honestly though, I think it is Leo's passion that does it. That was what captured us all and then we got to learn a lot along the way.

@YTPartyTonight 3 года назад

@James Lawson Yeah, understood. I've also done both types of labor/work and many things in between, as well. I shoveled mountains of horse manure on Saturdays for pocket change when I was 12 years old to buy art supplies, when I wasn't under my dad's wood boat on my back, on the gravel covered hard, painting the hull bottom with antifouling paint in the spring, mowing lawns or helping dad do carpentry projects or whatever. I've made art, design, photography, video shorts and music, built furniture, computers and guitars... much of it professionally... multiple college degrees from very demanding programs, etc. THE POINT: Leo clearly does Herculean amounts of physical, intellectual, analogue and digital forms of work, seemingly indefatigably. Leo also clearly loves what he is doing. It's extremely admirable.

So you laugh at his hair, I laugh at the comments because they say more about the people making them than they do about Leo's hair. His hair says "I don't care about how my hair looks" but it IS a cultured look. The comments say "I have never been to England before" LOL.

Thank you Leo for showing the world and the you tube community a good and proper way to build a wood boat that will last generations. Some of the saddest videos I see are those of people spending years to build their boats with substandard materials thinking everything will be fine not realizing the dramatic effect it will have in the life of their boats. The true cost of a boat is not so much in the materials but in the labor to assemble it. You are showing the world a masterpiece in creation.

In any case parrots have good memory and it would be a good idea to give her a visit once in a while if she cannot join you in the new yard :P Anyways I like the project and everything I have seen so far :)

@acraftman2823 3 года назад

David and Rowan 👍🏻 I think the attitude and work ethic you guys displayed will make a resume that speaks for itself. Btw as a old guy it does suck getting old but you just learn to use the knowledge you have gained along with the cash and pay you pups to do the hard stuff.🏴‍☠️

Just love the ball pein hammers you use. My dad who is long gone was in aviation and I grew up with his long handled hammers. My late and dear friend Dennis was a marine engineer a true “boiler maker” who crafted stainless steel boilers for steam turbine driven liners and ocean going tankers left me his short handled ball pein hammer exactly like what you guys are using....I am truly chuffed to own it now...it’s not a freak!

WOW! The interior of the hull looks amazing and the exterior is coming along nicely Leo & Crew. Sad seeing some older crewmates leave but good to see a few new faces as well. I really hope that you can get the wood that you need Leo. Everyone be well and stay safe! 👍👍😊😊

For deck planking you need to find someone who is demolishing an old factory, their floors can give you some good sized wood. HMS Warrior and HMS Tricomallee both used wood from old factories for their decks. Might be hard to find 100 year old factory floors now though.

@whotknots 3 года назад

Welcome back Clark, good to see you. I wonder if being put on the torture boards was payback for the comment you made ages ago about Leo drinking coffee while all the work was getting done?😁

@ruserious8761 3 года назад

Long boarding is the WORST job in boat building, in my opinion. It's "torturous" on your arms, back, neck, hell, it hurts everything.........

The old girl is one hundred and eleven years old, and capturing the attention of a multitude of people around the world, I don’t think anyone should ever think the sail away will be the end of her adventure, surely it will be the start of her latest adventures.

@philipshane768 3 года назад

Leo, you my friend, are a legend!!! I often wonder if the people who think this is taking a rather long time, understand the sheer amount of labor that goes into each and every process and step?? To put things into perspective can you share with us what a typical crew size would have been when Tally Ho was first built? How long did it take to build her, with how many souls toiling?? Always amazing, keep up the stellar work and thank you for your articulate sharing.

Don’t compromise Leo this build has been top quality from day one. Hopefully someone out there has the required wood at the right price 🙏🏼

In the mid 70's I bought a classic Dragon sailboat (the last wooden boat in the Olympics). Took a long time to replace ribs and making it ship shape. But nothing like the time you guys are spending on this beautiful project. When I/we were finished, everyone on their fiberglass boats were filled with envy.

@eisenelch1194 3 года назад

Beautiful wooden boats are great if they belong to someone else :) My father owned a Drachen (Dragon) build in the 50s out of Teak and Mahagoni. For every hour sailing one had to spend 20 hours to keep the boat in shape.

@@eisenelch1194 Bang! the first true saying Iv heard 'some one else' and a hour value cost..bet Leo Sells Tally Ho as fast as "some one else's" money can be transferred to his account.

@eisenelch1194 3 года назад

@@allenschmitz9644 that doesn`t refer to Leo but just to me. Leo has the passion for wooden boats, I just love to look at them when they are well kept, because I know how much sweat, money and time it costs to keep them that way. No boat beats the look of a well kept and maintained wooden boat. I myself prefer my "plastic" one because I love to use it more than I love to spend time for maintenance

I understand about trimming the plugs....I love mowing my lawn.....I find it peaceful and diverting. I use nice noise-cancelling headphones...sometimes silently, other times i'll listen to non-fiction audiobooks.....and I usually stretch the job out.

@jamesford8315 3 года назад

25:15 As an older person (65) I can attest that you won't have to use a long board to feel like that from sun-up to sun-down every day. Take the utmost care of your lower back as you journey through life. Knees, hips and shoulders can be replaced. Back surgery involves fusion which means those joints don't move anymore. Look at the movement of the elderly and ask them what they did for a living. Those that move well were not boat builders. Teach boat building and you will have a longer career. You should all be very proud of your accomplishments. Tally-Ho looks tremendous. As my Dad would say, "My hat is off to all of you." Best wishes to all the volunteers.

Hello,Leo and crew. What a magnificent job. I’ve watched you from the beginning and looked forward to every episode. I’m 70 and just hope I live long enough to see Tally Ho launched. You and the crew are a pleasure to watch and a breath of fresh air. Good luck with everything you do. Keep up the fantastic work , see you next episode. 👌👌🤞🤞
