I was just clicking on comments to complain that this video was as too short, but your message reminded me that the videos are coming more frequently, so no complaint.
I sure am jealous. In 1996-1997 my wife and I bought a 36' aluminum sailboat, stripped her to bare metal and built her back. Then we sailed for almost 20,000 miles having a son in Tortola along the way. Sure would have been nice to have that crew and tools!
You know what`s crazy.... 6 years ago i started watching this couple of videos about a guy from the UK who bought a boat for $1 with the intent to get it sea worthy again. 6 Years later the boat has been rebuilt from the keel up, every single piece of wood has been replaced, renewed, refitted with the help of the most amazing group of people to ever come together to restore a piece of English history. I am so proud to be a Brit after watching all these videos. The craftsmanship, the love, the friendship and the dedication just blows me away. Leo, and all you guys, you have my utmost respect because what you are doing right now is contributing to a piece of living history, if only we all could contribute to that it would be a dream come true. Leo, truly you are an amazing bloke mate, thank you so much for keeping the UK / England and it`s heritage firmly embossed into the history books. Thanks to all you guys at Sampson Boat Co for bringing us all along on this journey, it`s an absolute honour. From a genuinely respectful Brit from the West Midlands `Wolverhampton` of the UK, Glen. Thank you all.
I've made several comments about Leo getting some help with the videos, his time is to valuable to be behind the camera. Raquel has been doing a great job.
What an exceptional crew. The quality of the work is mind-blowing. We hear so often that the "younger generation" (I'm 76 and a machinist for 30 years) just doesn't want to work, or that craftsmanship is dead. This crew puts the lie to those thoughts. Bravo . . .
Really talented crew you have assembled Leo. I am a 45 year carpenter/cabinet maker and the high attention to detail is really amazing for me to watch. Can't wait to see her afloat!
If I remember correctly her came into the team not really knowing what he was doing/not confident enough to do things. He had raw talent that has definitely been nurtured and look what amazing things he can do now!
And to imagine, I still remember when you thought you were just going to replace “the damaged” stuff and get her back in the water. I love that you’ve done everything you have done to Tally Ho and at the quality it’s been done at.
Yeah Patrick, not a person here wouldn't be nervous cutting into perfectly formed and fitted cherry, weeks in the making and not ask "are we sure" If you didn't question it? probably wouldn't be in the project buddy. Doing great, at least what we see 😂 I'd have went bankrupt buying all the wood minimum of twice long ago which is why I'm riveted to the screen every "Tally Ho Saturday". This project has saved me money because of how I've approached projects with a completely different way. For every project or challenge in the shop of "what's the best way to do this?" the first step is asking "How might Leo plan and problem solve" ... I swear to god, this is a valid and proven point of consideration. As I've said before, as the son of a carpenter, cabinet maker who's "time with dad" first memories are dominated by growing up in and around the cabinet shop every weekend and all summer. This is in my DNA so I understand skill and craftsmanship. This is an absolute masterclass on so many things it boggles the mind. I would go so far as to say, if you've spent the time to follow this story, and it doesn't inspire you you? You'll never be a person who works with your hands and creates something of your own. Most ironic thing for me, as a boater, love being on the water, my interest in sailing has never risen above a 0.5 to 0,8 out of 10 and still doesn't. But I can appreciate good wood... and can't wait to learn more about sailing. Not something I'll ever do (I've said never enough times to know sometimes it's a lie which really means it's just not on the list), but doesn't mean I can't appreciate it as much as those who do. Just like horses. Love animals, worked on a horse farm. But based on my experience, I'm not riding shit if it doesn't have an ignition switch and steering wheel/handlebars. Love horses, never getting on another one. Kinda how I feel about sailing.
@@RaqrexArt welcome aboard to maybe your biggest art project to date .. I trust your learning curb will be steep ,if you don’t already hope you find sailing not just a excellent sport but a lifestyle you embrace and promote .. I’ve found the camaraderie amongst sailor something that compares to no other experience on this earth I trust you’ve already been overwhelmed with love and affection from not this group but all in sailors in the boatyard .. enjoy
Over the years of watching y’all work I’ve realized that shipwrights are some of the best carpenters around. The level of detail is far superior from your standard lot. This brings to mind Mike Rowe’s mission to bring the trades back. A very important part of America. Would love to see a video about the shipwright trade. All aspects of it and how learning this can set you up for a good career much like a welder or electrician can.
Pulling the turkey out..... Is that a euphemism? One of the biggest problems I have watching these videos is that I normally multitask however that is totally impossible because you have to watch every minute because there's so much interesting stuff going on. As always Massive Respect from Aotearoa, New Zealand 😀👍
The attention for detail, the persuit of excellence and the love for wood as a working material as it is expressed in these videos by all those who work on the project is examplary, motivating, inspiring and very satisfying to watch. Every video starts with Leo looking like he has no idea how he got this far, but it is all really happening and ends by him attempting but graciously failing to fully express how moved he is by all the support he is getting. He makes me wonder what it is like to wake up in a dream every morning. I can hardly wait to see the rigging.
Well said !!! It's really difficult for anyone with any level and/or experience with anything involving "skill" to express the huge amount of respect for the great work EVERYONE on this project is doing !!!! VERY well done !!!!
This channel popped up a few weeks ago in my RUclips home. I just finished binging all the episodes. I’ve been doing woodworking for 50 years now and I am inspired by the quality of these shipwrights. Leo - I hope you plan a stop in NC.
Making countertops like that is nerve wracking, even if the material is thick, splitting the grain can happen so easily when Patty popped the sink in I cringed, sure seems it fit tight, no critics these guys are top notch, so much expansion and contraction with the ocean environment, but I'd be afraid to use it! Looks so good!
Welcome Raquel and David -- you're joining an amazing team! -- especially glad to see Leo getting videography/editing and social media help -- Raquel: you help connect a passionate and loyal global community of Tally Ho fanatics to this awesome project; and you surely take some pressure off Leo (our favorite boatbuilder and sailor, who somehow is still standing). Wish I could say hello in person on the 10th, happy and smooth open house!
@RaqrexArt - Wish I could have been there to see Tally Ho and meet the talented team (and Pancho!) - alas, not possible - I HAD REALLY WANTED TO MEET OTHER “OG” PATREON-ERS, TOO - its been fun recognizing your names and getting to “know” folks through (often witty) comments here and on RUclips, etc. - grateful to be amongst the many Tally Ho supporters, especially names I’ve been seeing over the years - nice to feel like a small part of this special adventure. Hope everyone who made it to the Open House had a sweet day!
That Galley is a work of Art!!! Kudos to every single one of your Craftsmen and Women who have done you proud. The Tally Ho will probably be one of , if not THE Finest in her Class. Well Done Leo and Team, and thank you for sharing this with us all. (Rtd RN Marine Engineering Artificer)
Your amazing attention to perfect detail is at a past time level of 7 year apprenticeships and masters. Wonderful to see such standards being maintained
For those that can't wait, the tour video from Sunday shows stills of the progress. Two piece rudder installed. Brass front bumper. Etc. Search Tally Ho, down in the results. Whole skylight installed with metal bars to reinforce the glass. Compass at the front of the cockpit. 6 brass fixtures for rig winching stuff installed at the outside of the cockpit.
That dog at 4:00 reminds me of an old friend I had. An Australian Shepherd Border Collie mix named Angel who was a real sweetheart. The work everyone continues to put into this boat is amazing. It's also inspiring me a bit to look into desk design because I've searched all over youtube, Amazon, Walmart, everywhere for a desk to suit my needs and I have been left by every place unfulfilled. It also tells me that it's time to put everything I have learned from watching wood working in general from Epoxy Coating to Model Crafting to Ship Building that I have my own special requirements that will go into just what I need. It has taken several years to get to this point, but I'm finally there. Shame I can't be there on the 10'th. Birthday for me and all. Despite that I hope everyone has a good time. Good excuse as any to have BBQ and beer. At least in my opinion.
Everytime I see Nic's nailpolish I get reasured that it's fine for me to wear nailpolish too. Everytime I get worried about what people might think about it or even when I myself worry about whether I should wear the nailpolish I really want to wear, I remind myself: Nic, the badass boatbuilder, can wear nailpolish AND SO CAN I !! Thank you Nic for your encouragement by example ❤🧡💛💚💙💜❤
Leo thank you for documenting this human-interest story with all that it entails. Thank you for explaining each individual process and the terminology. I happen to come across your channel (maybe it found me who knows) and after watching a few current episodes I decided to go back and watch it from its beginning. God's blessings (known, unknown, seen, unseen) to you, your family, your crew, past, present and future, always.
Yah. He can row a boat and throw a pot and take a video too. He crafts a funny line best though. We should all have a boss like Leo and a coworker like Patrick eh?
Whew, just found this channel several weeks ago and just spent the last month or so watching from the beginning - now I am caught up. Just want to say - I love this channel and the people. Thank you Leo and Crew.
Hi Raquel(sp?), hi Jango. Welcome to the team (on-screen anyway). Jango won't be behind the lens so may figure prominently I hope. And George! Nice work, man! Bet you feel proud. You should. As all the team should. Even Mad Patrick! I've seen the work he does even wearing a skirt, and it's good. Need to say - every team needs a Mad Patrick on it; ask Nick, he'll tell you. Every team needs a nut job, just not one who's a bit too far over the edge...... and The Duchess knows where the line is. Thanks team!
Welcome Raquel and David! Thanks, Leo, for giving us a up date every Saturday. I hope Raquel can take the video load off your shoulders. You are an excellent manager of people and time. GREAT TEAM.
Been watching these videos since the beginning and absolutely love following the process. I will say I miss the focus on the work in more recent videos that have been replaced with 'antics'. I watch this series to watch super talented people do super talented work and I feel like that's been missing a bit lately. Keep up the awesome work!
I recently watched a couple past episodes, and couldn't help but think how significant Finn and Pat's efforts were to the framing. And to Pete's hard dedication to laying the garboards and broads. I find it difficult to envision their tolerance to the current perception of constant buffoonery. It does get old, quick.
@@moebeddah2288- There's no doubt about the quality of the work, so if the crew wants to have a laugh or go over-the-top absurd for a sponsor segment - that's part of the story, too.
Bob Emser's (boatwright) comment is absolutely true: "If you're going to make it, make it beautiful" and these guys definitely live up to Emser's saying. Certainly one of the finest wooded boat construction projects ever seen on this or any other UTube channel. And the exceptional video work contributes greatly to the viewers better appreciation and undertanding of the process. Keep it up!!!
Totally blown away by the craftsmanship on show, both in front off and behind the camera. Interior is really coming alive with the beautiful joinery that's being done. Good luck with your open day, so jealous of those who'll be able to see Tally Ho in the flesh, or grain🙂, and meet her fantastic crew.
that intro music slaps. there are only a few shows / channels here on youtube i instantly click on and one of them is yours, keep up the fantastic work as always.
The Tally Ho has ever bit and more of the finest bespoke craftsmanship sailing ships of past all done by some of the most talented shipwrights,cabinetmakers that exist today in my opinion and without saying the most humble craftsman and craftswoman ever seen. No doubt it can be a scary if not frightening experience to not only to work on an extremely historically significant sailing vessel such as the Tall Ho, but they all are working under the ships owner Leo who is an incredibly gifted shipwright himself ! Plus let’s not forget about the incredibly expensive timber much of it being rare from protected forests in far away countries and even sourced from wonderful small sawyers in our own country. No one wants to make a miss-cut,measure incorrectly and destroy wood so rare. We all see those talented shipwrights make it look easy but we know it all comes to us from their talented hands. I’m so grateful Leo has chosen us all to be a part of the Tally Ho’s rebirth and I seriously doubt that if Leo hadn’t come to see Tally Ho and pay the exorbitant Price of 1 single dollar for Her, most likely and sadly 😢 Do one else would have had the love,talent and ability to gather the amazing people he had to do it. Thanks to all of you !
Leo, man, dude...this boat of yours is work of art. I'm reflecting on previous episodes: selecting the wood...having it cut...and a volunteer who stepped up to deliver it...the lead keel excitement...April Fools "front door" (you got me)...all of it...the whole bit. Looking back, you've come a long way. I look forward to seeing more.
@SampsonBoatCo how about a parading that gorgeous ship around the Puget sound after you launch… couple days in Kingston, Tacoma, Seattle, Everett… sounds like a nice vacation (or fundraising/charity trip, or?).
Much progress being made. The finish on the cabinetry structure and vanishing is flawless!! Tally Ho is going to be a standard to shoot for for future boatbuilders!!
I love to see these amazing craftsmen being given the time, space and materials to do what they obviously love at the highest level. It’s amazing the amount of attention they pay to details that that will be covered and never seen again.
For a true expert there’s only two ways, right….and wrong. It’s a matter of pride and a measure of one’s integrity to know that the next craftsman to see your work, whether the next day or in a hundred years, will acknowledge it as well made and respect the craftsmanship that created it. No true musician would deliberately cut corners in a performance, nor would any true craftsman performing his or her art. It is pride in achieving that which is both beautiful and that which is well made that keeps a craftsman motivated to keep achieving a higher standard and that is both the frustration and the utterly satisfying pleasure in the work. I’m an engineer and a toolmaker/machinist, not a cabinet maker or a boatbuilder, though I have done a little of both and to the best of my limited ability, which is why I absolutely appreciate the standards of workmanship on display here, it’s superb. In my own field, if I mar the surface finish on an item that I’ve made in my workshop in any way that it cannot be corrected without breaching dimensional tolerances, though it may still be functional, I will reject it and make it again without a second’s hesitation. I cannot bear the thought that another toolmaker might inspect it and find my error simply because I take pride in my work and that is not negotiable. A lot of what I have done in my working life has been involved with motorsports and fortunately it is an industry in which perfection is sought after and recognised. The saying “you’re only as good as your last piece of work” is a mantra that my early life mentor used often. He was exactly right.
She is really coming together. Going to be a beautiful boat. I’ll probably never see her in person or put a foot aboard her but I bet I enjoy her for years to come. Thanks Leo & crew
With every video new things take shape and Patrick gets to entertain, what more could we ask for? Is anyone else catching all the other side projects going outside of Tally Ho itself? Do yourself a big favor and check them out, great stuff. Hint on one of my faves, J Danial Graham out of Georgetown, Ky.
Again a brilliant episode of Leo and his team. Something to look forward to every day of the week. The best documented boat restoration ever. Thank you very much for keeping us in the loup. God bless and Tally Ho.
My OCD is on overload! Clip the zip tie ends! LOL! Awesome wood working by the crew. I would say you are 1/2 way done now, don't hurry or rush it, that is when mistakes are made.
It seems to me that Patrick is getting his own Fan Club and transforming from "Goose to Gifted"🤣😂 Well done Paddy, you may soon have your own cult following. 😄😆🤣😂😇
Thank you for taking me along this incredible journey. As someone who has nothing to do with such labor, i am very grateful for this insight. It gave me a whole new perspective. Being able to lead such a project and wonderful team is something special. Enjoy your time together and take your time. I would love to see some financial insights at the end of the project. Greetings from Germany.
I always like the video even before I watch it cuz I no its going to be good I've followed u since the beginning and I must say this is my favourite channel out of all of them u have done a amazing job keep it up
It's so lovely to see a proper old school woodwork shop being used for proper old school woodworking. Leo and his team are magicians as far as I'm concerned.
It's a struggle to find word's of praise that have not already been said. Patrick and Leo have made for an exceptional team, striving for excellence and achieving excellence.
I've been watching this series since the beginning and so look forward to it, each and every week. Beautiful people, working to restore a beautiful boat. Too bad that my travel plans don't allow for a visit at this time. Fingers crossed that I'll be able to see Tally Ho and meet Leo in person one day. Until then, all the best to Leo and his quite amazing team.
Leo I’m moored across from the Western Flyer temporarily at Fisherman’s Terminal in Ballard. She is amazing in person. Your boat will be more impressive. It’s getting close.
I love to watch the series, to see this beautiful shiprestauration, the action in present, the history and all the explanations. Thank you and lots of success. Greetings from Toffen, Switzerland
How fortunate, if I’m not mistaken this is 4 Saturday’s in a row! Thanks Leo, this build is moving right along.
Thanks, Raquel!
I was just thinking the same thing !!
I was just clicking on comments to complain that this video was as too short, but your message reminded me that the videos are coming more frequently, so no complaint.
Indeed! very much appreciated!

Paddy strolling in the background eating a bag of chips was my favorite part lol
8:33
👍👌👏 I had to grin from ear to ear too. 😁
I sure am jealous. In 1996-1997 my wife and I bought a 36' aluminum sailboat, stripped her to bare metal and built her back. Then we sailed for almost 20,000 miles having a son in Tortola along the way. Sure would have been nice to have that crew and tools!
You know what`s crazy.... 6 years ago i started watching this couple of videos about a guy from the UK who bought a boat for $1 with the intent to get it sea worthy again. 6 Years later the boat has been rebuilt from the keel up, every single piece of wood has been replaced, renewed, refitted with the help of the most amazing group of people to ever come together to restore a piece of English history.

The quality of workmanship is a joy to behold!
Frames are too short now 😢 where are the slightly too long slo mo shots that I’ve come to love?
When the notice come in that Tally Ho has an update all else stops until it is watched and digested. Thanks Leo. I needed that!
Raquel has become a great asset obviously and Pat’s efforts in the galley are amazing!
I am guessing Raquel is a big part of the reason we have been getting weekly videos . . . I am all in favor 👍
Thanks! Happy to be a part of the team and to contribute to getting more videos out to our supporters 🙂
@@RaqrexArt, chance of a lifetime working with that lot !!
Have fun!
@@RaqrexArt Also I suspect why we see Leo doing more work on the boat and less editing the videos. That is a win / win, thanks

What an exceptional crew. The quality of the work is mind-blowing. We hear so often that the "younger generation" (I'm 76 and a machinist for 30 years) just doesn't want to work, or that craftsmanship is dead. This crew puts the lie to those thoughts. Bravo . . .
These young master craftsmen are not your average young professionals.
They are the best of the rest, and This Build showcases their talents & skills.
Out of all the boat build channels, this boat is the nicest!
What, there are others
I'll follow Tally Ho till she hits an iceberg, which she won't coz of science. I'd follow her builders if they started channels, too. So much skill!
Leo , I am watching the violin being made for Tally ho
Me too!
When tally ho is finished there needs to be a video of all the intros and outros of everyone who worked on it.
Really talented crew you have assembled Leo. I am a 45 year carpenter/cabinet maker and the high attention to detail is really amazing for me to watch. Can't wait to see her afloat!
I know, beautiful work right? Always lovely to see craftsmanship in the disposable world.
I bet Leo has to stop sometime and just sit in Tally Ho and think WOW!🎉
ITS BEAUTIFUL TEAM!
Is it just me, or has Patrick's skills progressed an amazing amount during his tenure? He did some awesome work here.
If I remember correctly her came into the team not really knowing what he was doing/not confident enough to do things. He had raw talent that has definitely been nurtured and look what amazing things he can do now!

Oh my god, seeing Raquel pop up was the weirdest moment for me, sudden "i know you" realisation. A crossover I did not expect at all. Awesome
Sail this Masterpiece once you have finished. Sell her for 1 dollar shortly after, and please start again. This project is pure joy.
Rabbets / Rebates and the English/American terminology couldn’t help but make me lol 😂

The level of precision and craftsmanship of Leo's project is utterly astounding!
Nic’s oak doors are going to be some of the brightest shining jewels of the boats interior, up there with George’s historic Teak bunk sides
I simply cannot get over how fast the progress is going. Tally Ho is truly a proper vessel Leo.
Raquel (and Django!) and David seem like spectacular additions to the team.
Django says hi!
@@RaqrexArt hullo Django! Have some extra scratches and belly rubs on behalf of your new fans
Nice saloon work George!
Everytime I see Nic's nailpolish I get reasured that it's fine for me to wear nailpolish too.

Way more . 🤜🏼⚡️🤛🏼
Yah. He can row a boat and throw a pot and take a video too. He crafts a funny line best though. We should all have a boss like Leo and a coworker like Patrick eh?
@@ciberbri59Totally 👍🏼
Whew, just found this channel several weeks ago and just spent the last month or so watching from the beginning - now I am caught up. Just want to say - I love this channel and the people. Thank you Leo and Crew.
Seeing an update notification on tally ho is the best!
Hi Raquel(sp?), hi Jango. Welcome to the team (on-screen anyway). Jango won't be behind the lens so may figure prominently I hope. And George! Nice work, man! Bet you feel proud. You should. As all the team should. Even Mad Patrick! I've seen the work he does even wearing a skirt, and it's good. Need to say - every team needs a Mad Patrick on it; ask Nick, he'll tell you. Every team needs a nut job, just not one who's a bit too far over the edge...... and The Duchess knows where the line is.
Thanks team!
I was not expecting a video so soon after the last one, thank you Raquel.
The boat is starting to take on the soul of the people who all have put something into her. And what a boat it is!
Welcome Raquel and David! Thanks, Leo, for giving us a up date every Saturday. I hope Raquel can take the video load off your shoulders. You are an excellent manager of people and time. GREAT TEAM.
Been watching these videos since the beginning and absolutely love following the process. I will say I miss the focus on the work in more recent videos that have been replaced with 'antics'. I watch this series to watch super talented people do super talented work and I feel like that's been missing a bit lately. Keep up the awesome work!
I recently watched a couple past episodes, and couldn't help but think how significant Finn and Pat's efforts were to the framing. And to Pete's hard dedication to laying the garboards and broads. I find it difficult to envision their tolerance to the current perception of constant buffoonery. It does get old, quick.
@@moebeddah2288- There's no doubt about the quality of the work, so if the crew wants to have a laugh or go over-the-top absurd for a sponsor segment - that's part of the story, too.
Such a beautiful boat! The craftsmanship is out of this world! So happy to see two weeks in a row. I look forward to each episode.
Bob Emser's (boatwright) comment is absolutely true: "If you're going to make it, make it beautiful" and these guys definitely live up to Emser's saying. Certainly one of the finest wooded boat construction projects ever seen on this or any other UTube channel. And the exceptional video work contributes greatly to the viewers better appreciation and undertanding of the process. Keep it up!!!
so many amazing craftsman honing their skills on tally ho, very cool to see everyones progression
It's so good to finally see someone do something human and normal like accidentally drilling through the wall!
#UkraineBrainRot?
Totally blown away by the craftsmanship on show, both in front off and behind the camera. Interior is really coming alive with the beautiful joinery that's being done. Good luck with your open day, so jealous of those who'll be able to see Tally Ho in the flesh, or grain🙂, and meet her fantastic crew.
What is this weekly Tally Ho video witchcraft? I'm loving the constant videos! That interior is looking absolutely stunning.
Just being able to film and edit clears up Leo's time for woodwork. I'm on board for that, and we get weekly videos out of that too? OMG
6:55 Paddy’s little woo is in harmony of the music. That brings me joy.
Stickers!!! I’d buy some and I’m sure many others would too
that intro music slaps. there are only a few shows / channels here on youtube i instantly click on and one of them is yours, keep up the fantastic work as always.
Thank goodness for Raquel… we’re being spoiled with a Tally Ho video every week. And Patrick’s masterpiece of a galley! By golly!
Leo posts a new video right as I sit down for lunch, couldn't name a better duo.
Shipwrights are the most exacting of all carpenters. And you guys are a real good example of that.
The Tally Ho has ever bit and more of the finest bespoke craftsmanship sailing ships of past all done by some of the most talented shipwrights,cabinetmakers that exist today in my opinion and without saying the most humble craftsman and craftswoman ever seen. No doubt it can be a scary if not frightening experience to not only to work on an extremely historically significant sailing vessel such as the Tall Ho, but they all are working under the ships owner Leo who is an incredibly gifted shipwright himself ! Plus let’s not forget about the incredibly expensive timber much of it being rare from protected forests in far away countries and even sourced from wonderful small sawyers in our own country. No one wants to make a miss-cut,measure incorrectly and destroy wood so rare. We all see those talented shipwrights make it look easy but we know it all comes to us from their talented hands. I’m so grateful Leo has chosen us all to be a part of the Tally Ho’s rebirth and I seriously doubt that if Leo hadn’t come to see Tally Ho and pay the exorbitant
Price of 1 single dollar for Her, most likely and sadly 😢 Do one else would have had the love,talent and ability to gather the amazing people he had to do it.
Thanks to all of you !
Leo, man, dude...this boat of yours is work of art. I'm reflecting on previous episodes: selecting the wood...having it cut...and a volunteer who stepped up to deliver it...the lead keel excitement...April Fools "front door" (you got me)...all of it...the whole bit. Looking back, you've come a long way. I look forward to seeing more.
@SampsonBoatCo how about a parading that gorgeous ship around the Puget sound after you launch… couple days in Kingston, Tacoma, Seattle, Everett… sounds like a nice vacation (or fundraising/charity trip, or?).
Much progress being made. The finish on the cabinetry structure and vanishing is flawless!! Tally Ho is going to be a standard to shoot for for future boatbuilders!!
That's why the videos are so much better recently
I love to see these amazing craftsmen being given the time, space and materials to do what they obviously love at the highest level. It’s amazing the amount of attention they pay to details that that will be covered and never seen again.
For a true expert there’s only two ways, right….and wrong.
It’s a matter of pride and a measure of one’s integrity to know that the next craftsman to see your work, whether the next day or in a hundred years, will acknowledge it as well made and respect the craftsmanship that created it.
No true musician would deliberately cut corners in a performance, nor would any true craftsman performing his or her art.
It is pride in achieving that which is both beautiful and that which is well made that keeps a craftsman motivated to keep achieving a higher standard and that is both the frustration and the utterly satisfying pleasure in the work.
I’m an engineer and a toolmaker/machinist, not a cabinet maker or a boatbuilder, though I have done a little of both and to the best of my limited ability, which is why I absolutely appreciate the standards of workmanship on display here, it’s superb.
In my own field, if I mar the surface finish on an item that I’ve made in my workshop in any way that it cannot be corrected without breaching dimensional tolerances, though it may still be functional, I will reject it and make it again without a second’s hesitation.
I cannot bear the thought that another toolmaker might inspect it and find my error simply because I take pride in my work and that is not negotiable.
A lot of what I have done in my working life has been involved with motorsports and fortunately it is an industry in which perfection is sought after and recognised.
The saying “you’re only as good as your last piece of work” is a mantra that my early life mentor used often.
He was exactly right.
She is really coming together. Going to be a beautiful boat. I’ll probably never see her in person or put a foot aboard her but I bet I enjoy her for years to come. Thanks Leo & crew
With every video new things take shape and Patrick gets to entertain, what more could we ask for? Is anyone else catching all the other side projects going outside of Tally Ho itself? Do yourself a big favor and check them out, great stuff. Hint on one of my faves, J Danial Graham out of Georgetown, Ky.
I was fascinated to watch those violin build videos, but he totally blew my mind by screen-printing those maps on the inside of its front & back.
Again a brilliant episode of Leo and his team. Something to look forward to every day of the week. The best documented boat restoration ever.
Thank you very much for keeping us in the loup. God bless and Tally Ho.
@4:42 i will definitly be using that trick with the nails, very nice!
Agreed, always good to pick up a clever technique.
An update nearly once a week now?! Amazing work as always❤
I find it amazing how much wiring has gone into tally hoe there seems miles of it. Now nicely hidden by beautiful cabinetry. Well done Leo and crew
I love seeing the incredible level of detail going into this project in virtually every corner.
My OCD is on overload! Clip the zip tie ends! LOL! Awesome wood working by the crew. I would say you are 1/2 way done now, don't hurry or rush it, that is when mistakes are made.
It seems to me that Patrick is getting his own Fan Club and transforming from "Goose to Gifted"🤣😂 Well done Paddy, you may soon have your own cult following. 😄😆🤣😂😇
Thank you for taking me along this incredible journey. As someone who has nothing to do with such labor, i am very grateful for this insight. It gave me a whole new perspective. Being able to lead such a project and wonderful team is something special. Enjoy your time together and take your time. I would love to see some financial insights at the end of the project. Greetings from Germany.
I always like the video even before I watch it cuz I no its going to be good I've followed u since the beginning and I must say this is my favourite channel out of all of them u have done a amazing job keep it up
my only regret is not being able to give it more than one like.
It's so lovely to see a proper old school woodwork shop being used for proper old school woodworking. Leo and his team are magicians as far as I'm concerned.
It's a struggle to find word's of praise that have not already been said. Patrick and Leo have made for an exceptional team, striving for excellence and achieving excellence.
All this beautiful wood work! The entry stairs leave something to be desired! 😂
This is such a beautiful ship/ project. All hand built by real craftsmen. Love it. Can’t wait to see the launch and first run.
I've been watching this series since the beginning and so look forward to it, each and every week. Beautiful people, working to restore a beautiful boat. Too bad that my travel plans don't allow for a visit at this time. Fingers crossed that I'll be able to see Tally Ho and meet Leo in person one day. Until then, all the best to Leo and his quite amazing team.
A happy ship for sure.
Notification, immediate click. Making my saturday fighting a cold better
When the boat finally splashes I would love to see a tally ho sailing school video series.
Leo I’m moored across from the Western Flyer temporarily at Fisherman’s Terminal in Ballard. She is amazing in person. Your boat will be more impressive. It’s getting close.
Nice to see what George has been up to. Really solid work!
The ability of George to speak without making pauses, prolonging vowels or saying "mmhm", "ehhh", is remarkable!
I love to watch the series, to see this beautiful shiprestauration, the action in present, the history and all the explanations. Thank you and lots of success. Greetings from Toffen, Switzerland
Patty is a national treasure
Every video I’m astounded by the beautiful workmanship
LEO .... only one item on the WISH LIST today
That galley is a work of art as is everything the Tallyho crew are creating!👍🇦🇺🇬🇧🙏
Jordan has quietly done really awesome work!
