ithomes.info/net/vLqx1adplWp6h4Y/video Guys from US , who can point me the clip with quite old melody called Appalachian ? Probably mid 1950s or so, was written by one or two composers. Sounds like running herd of horses or indian troops...
I have a question how much of the original boat is there going to be leftover
Come back Cecca - we need your smile!!
A song from Leo to Cecca - ithomes.info/net/xrOLusOSe6F8q44/video
You should sell Cecca's "craft" items lol.
Leo, Give all your lady friends a call and wish them a "Cheers".
nooo Cecca
It’s cold wet and miserable. Why don’t these brits feel totally at home?
Are there superstitious time to work on certain parts of a boat? say a stem, do you have to remove the lock on a specific day and time? to replace a keel do you need special ceremonies?
You are so lucky the dreaded Building Inspector did not see that bunk room. ALL bedrooms MUST have a window of sufficient size for the occupants to exit through in case of fire. Did you install a window because you found out about this requirement?
I cannot see why anyone would rebuild a boat in such poor condition, As it would cost almost the same to build a new one
I just discovered your project and I'm playing catch-up from episode 1. Great job at living my dream. PS: I'll never forgive you for sending Cecca home. Bloody bad show (lol).
Cecca is adorable!
Awesome series. What happened to those hippy twins that came from England to help you
9:10 my first thougth was "Is this a baby?" 5s later "Shit man thats a long cry." 3s later "OH nvm its just a saw..."
Thank you for the free content
The You Tube page only shows up to Episode 12 so I had to monkey about a bit to get into this Episode. Glad I did because there is so much to learn from watching all the decisions.
god the amount of rivets or pins on the ribs of that boat is crazy, some of those shots make it seems like there is more crap going through the ribs then actual whole wood.
I was searching for this episode: Different keel, different boat. It had to be done.
I love the series. I love the constant, random shots of the chickens too. It just adds some nice barnyard boat repair fun to the videos. Keep it up!
Love that fart @9:10
If only it could be put back together as fast as it came apart.
so sad...
Maybe it's time for those bars to come back!
1:44 hiding his dirty habit like a boss. Still - yuck
I'd love a video that explains some of your background. Where and how did you get your interest in boat building? When did you begin sailing? Things like that would help us understand how you developed your expertise.
Here is a link to an old article about Leo: tinyurl.com/yydzgsr9
is that how the english say to a pretty girl
Aren't you glad you made that decision now. Looking back is always 6/6 vision
Kind of funny to hear you in one of these early videos discussing the keel, and maybe saving parts of it, and how sad that would be to not do so (I've only previously watched your later videos-- which included replacing the entire keel!). My point is, in a much later video you wax philosophical with your "Ship of Theseus" dissertation-- which was brilliant, BTW-- in which you defend literally replacing every scrap of timber in the boat.I totally got it, and agreed with your philosophy and reasoning. I wish I'd watched these previous videos sooner than now (only been following Tally Ho! for about a month or so). What piques me here is the obvious need for (and difficult decision to) go ahead and replace the entire keel and stem and stern posts. Aside from monetary considerations, I'm sure those were tough decisions. Nothing truly worth doing is ever easy-- especially the tough decisions. Anyway, I just had to comment on this as it struck a chord or two (or six or nineteen...). Rock on, Leo! Your youth belies your experience, your abilities and your wisdom-- and I find that fascinating. I think you're the perfect match to put Tally Ho! back in her environment: on the seas.
You gotta ask yourself, "What would Thad do?" :)
17:23 Hottest shot ever
It's cool that you filmed everyone evenly both inside and outside of the boat as they were helping with the work.
I am impressed beyond words.
Great job,, hello from Hamilton Ontario Canada. Going to look fantastic when it's finished.
Merry Christmas from the future.
Rabbits or rebates ?
Same diff (but it's spelled rabbet)
I'm soooo envious of the beautiful young women you're attracting!
Just curious what type of log for a mast( size at the base and top plus overall length.
Can someone explain what the rabbit is? He said rabbit at 16:00, right?
Rebate in the keel timber for the garboard (bottom plank)
Replace the Keel, but repurpose or reuse the original Keel wood inside the boat.
The sound of multiple hammers hammering away is the song of a shipyard!
i know a better way to get the bolts out using a palm nailer it will vibrate the bolt out with ease
And know ceca is your girlfriend so she always staying with you leo
I find it really empowering how you deal with women on the project. Some women, who have not understood themselves as powerful, need a bit of exposure to themselves as _actually_ being powerful to understand their worth. I think you provide that.
lol @Ted Tedster you actually made me laugh out loud, thanks:)
Please make your video longer, you have so much to share, I will have to come up sometime and lead a hand....
Ok, I'm going to skip ahead to the videos when Cecca comes back. It feels like a soap opera just put a main character in a coma. And what happened to the parrot!? Too many plots going off on tangents and this is still better than anything on television. Keep up the great work dude. I can empathize with your weather issues from up here in northern Ontario. Buy yourself a good toque, great work gloves, and warm boots; the rest will take care of itself. Great work as always.
I wonder why you do not use an air chisel to drive out fasteners quicker?
stop choking the hammer Cecca LOL
Dang! Look at all those lovely ladies! I need to get me a rotten old wooden boat! I had no idea!
Are you a decent lookin bloke at least, that’s really all ya need
It’s the English accent.
Get a puppy. Real babe magnets and way cheaper. Believe me, I live in a rotten old boat... (I'm also 66 and ugly. Not a winning combination)...
@Vee Dragon Yeah, if I was a lady I could definitely do worse than Leo lol.
He seems emotionally healthy and has an interesting hobby! Thus, he's attractive.
good for bonfire night
I take my hat off to you, outstanding! I had 1927 31ft long, 15ft beam, clinker built ex lifeboat when I was younger so know how much work these old wooden boats need. Unfortunately it got burnt in the end, I couldn't afford to keep it in trim. Too many of these old boat's go the same way, passed on from owner to owner, rotting over the years till they die.
Where will be the bedroom and what about the toilet.
"Don't know what we'll eat?" *eyes chickens in the yard* !!
Great video series Leo. Very impressed with all the work you are doing by yourself, especially watching you move the keel timber. You are a talented craftsman and I look forward to watching the latest episodes.
Cecca is awesome! Nice, supportive and willing to go out of her comfortzone. Very impressive.
You do know how to throw a party
Great video!
Did you by any chance find any old coins that wiggle down between frames etc.
They need to sing sea shanties while they work.
What would you do with a drunken sailor what would you do with a drunken sailor Row row row your boat and so on
I suggest all of your chain plates and knees be made out of 316 stainless steel.
Yeet.
These videos are great, thanks!
How much of the original hull do you think you will be able to save? Are you basically using the original hull for a pattern? Look forward to future videos.
What percentage of the vessel will be original when the rebuild is completed ?
If you are removing almost every part of the old boat isn't it easier to build a new boat using the new keel ??
I could have done, yes. But I wanted to rebuild this one.
My point is, If you are looking for the adventure of building a boat. you could build a new one. Buying a boat may not seem so much adventurous!
It's easier to buy a new boat. Or stay home. Not the point :)
The guy in the red sweater at 1:48 was hiding a joint LMAO
A bit late to do you any good, but consider getting a large air hammer (something along the lines of a rivet breaker) if you do this again. It would make the endless task of driving old fasteners out go far more quickly.
you need a scuttle
Great and inspirational
Hmm. Learnt a lot about dismantling old boats from this channel. Still interesting though!
What will remain if you removed all the timber? Why do you not build a complete new boat according to the original plan?
At 11:14. I love a dry sense of humour. Note the correct spelling.
I don't know much about boatbuilding, but are you saving anything?
Some planks, hah! and ballast keel, and a few other bits.
I would love to help you with safety gear for your crew. Gloves safety glasses ear protection. Can you send me you shipping address . Love what you are doing. And know its an enormous task. I will check the links and see if its there.
ik zou jou ook niet in mijn bedrijf willen hebben, kletsen en niets doen
I have been binging on your videos for the last day and you keep having to say that people might not treat this as a restoration if there is so much new material installed. As far as I can see if you can salvage material realistically and install new stuff to match original drawings it's a restoration to me. Like you said no point in going through all this process to produce a beautiful piece only to come back after a short while to restore it again with new parts
I seen the fire extinguisher in tha middle of tha boat on tha wall. Good to be safe around all of that wood. :)
I am in amazement in how much quality and materials went into that boat on the early 1900’s. Simply amazing............
WHAT WILL BE SALVAGEABLE AND DO YOU REBUILD FROM FRAME TO OUTWARDS?? Really cool to see the processes and saving an iconic boat
burn it
Re-watching this episode ... Those ladies will not be happy to know that there is a tool call a pneumatic hammer that would have knocked those bolt/rivets out in a few seconds each !
Need to use a little larger hammer, say about three lbs.
So....you are the lucky one......
Just looking at the heavy hardware on the boat it appears to me the you could have these forged by a blacksmith if the material you need is made in flat bar. Better yet you can buy a wood burning forge from Whitlox Homestead.com starting "Mini forge" at $220.00...See on UT search; WHITLOX FORGE.
Replace it. Then rest easy in the knowledge.
Very good work
There must be a synthetic resin you can pump into the checks to make the wood work as one piece again
Have just caught up with your amazing project. Incredible lot of work for a worthwhile restoration. Looking forward to the next instalments.
The U.S. Portsmouth navy ship yard in kittery Maine has live oak timbers that were to be used on the USS Constitution. The size of the timbers range from15"x25"x45' planking to ships timbers 30"x30"x75' these timbers were sunk in fresh water ponds on the navy yard until 2001 they now for sale you contact the controller of the yard to view and buy them
I just had a thought regarding all the wrought or cast iron that youd like redone in bronze. It may be less expensive to have all the steel/iron powdercoated instead of getting them all in bronze. Just a thought you may or may not have considered.
Hey Leo, if your Keel is hooked, you could also put a tapered and shaped laminated Keel underneath. Would be much cheaper than a hole new keel out of full material
And then set sail and off you go !!! ithomes.info/net/mbih25eEiaKqlo4/video
I don't know the first thing about ships or shipbuilding but this series got me hooked. Totally fascinating!
How do you organize and keep track of all the pieces you take off?
this is the greatest channel I've found in over 10 years of youtube surfing. KEEP IT UP!!!!!
Hammers and flying punches????...... Safety glasses, people!!!
Rip it out and replace with new ,donot sink the ship for a aperth of tar
Proper technique holding the hammer?
Ambitious! Love it! My mind was wondering about doing that, as I watched this.
So how can you stay in the U.S. to do this project if your from the U.K.?? 3 month visitors visa?? Curios to know because someone working here and getting funding from who ever should be here legally. Not doing dodgy business in the U.S. of A. rebuilding a boat on the lamb..... just saying my piece of mind/2nd amendment
