What a great video. Thank you for making this available for our viewing pleasure. Having owned several sailboats I can tell you that this is one of the nicest sailboats I have ever seen. All the pleasures of owning a wood boat with the maintenance of a fiberglass boat. The best of both worlds. An incredible boat that sails like a dream.
Brought back so many good memories. Many years ago, as a team player, I was a woodworker on the sailing yacht, "Dust Em" built in San Diego for Dennis Conners, The Americas Cup Winner. It was 46', all wooden hull. From the lumber truck delivering the raw wood, to what a feeling it was to see it lowered into the water and to go sailing on it in the San Diego Bay. Enjoy your years building Yachts, you will be able to look back on those years with a since of pride. I know I do.
I pleased that rich people have enough money to have wooden boats of this quality built so that people with all of the necessary skills to build such a boat can remain employed so that those skills don't disappear. They are precious beyond belief.
well said for i was a loss for words, Am a cabinetmaker of thirty-five years owned a Glen L 25ft plywood hull when i was young got me into woodworking, truly thought that skill was gone, warms my heart to see it live on!
I love this method, a great way to weld together the best of wood and the best of glass. To see it under sail however showed perfect design on all points. That downwind shot really made my day.
@@marineman2298 Doesn't have to be a big boat to be mindblowing ;) Look up some of Johan Anker's boats. The man is an absolute god of the yacht design world
Love this video. No lies. No deception. Noone trying to sell you something, or trying to talk you out of your hard earned pay, just good old fashioned honest work. But I'd sure like to buy that boat.
This vid showing up completely brightened my day. Nothing even comes close in compare to wood and a group of people able to work together, and great to see that it still happens.
I Use to watch my grandfather work on rowboats when I was a kid. His full-time job was working at the shipyard for Bethlehem Steel. He didn't use any glass or epoxy it was all wood, putty, and brass screws... With lots of paint..lol 16 and 20 ft row boats were beautiful pieces of art. Building a sailboat like this it's not only a beautiful work of art but a great piece of architecture. You guys are amazing Craftsman. I see the skills in your hands as I did in my grandfather's. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful to see such craftmanship so alive and well. I make furniture and think a set of dovetailed drawers is a lot of work! This is mind blowing. Such a beautiful finished piece and thanks for sharing. Cheers from Aust - Dave PS. I don't think these guys are "Extreme Fast" - they take their time and do the job properly. :-)
@@orbodman That certainly makes things difficult. As I've made built-ins for our house I have concluded that it must have been built before the discovery of the right angle! It certainly does make things much harder. Cheers - Dave
Awesoeme. The pride of having worked on that boat! It is one thing to be a great shipwright when that was the norm, it is another to be at top form when such skills are a rarity.
My grandfather was a master boat builder from a time long gone. He built many schooners which we called floaters and I used to marvel at his skill. This video is an integration of old/new technologies and fine craftsmanship. The end result is truly a masterpiece. What I wouldn't give to sail her & explore. Dream on.
That was my 1st reaction too also with the epoxy but on reflection a few counter considerations .A)These guys obviously know what they are doing B) I bet it gets the cost down otherwise I suspect more wood and labour would be required. C) lower cost means more sales which helps keep the tradition alive both for the wood working skills and the boat design. D) There is some comfort in knowing its full beauty can be seen internally.
Yes Gizmo, me too. As one who spent his formative years as a traditional boat builder, there is little I recognise here. The main question is, how would one go about repairing such a hull if it were ever breached? Scrappage would be my guess.
@@gav2759 It's actually easier to fix a breach in this type of hull then it is in a wooden planked hull. There's pro's and con's to both methods. Laminated wood hulls with fiberglass canvas over it, makes for a stronger and lighter hull with the benefits of a easier construction and much easier to maintain. It's not really about competing with wood, after all there's plenty of wood above the waterline and inside where you see it. You got to admit it's a beautiful boat. It's like comparing a log cabin to a framed house, both have there appeal, costs and associated skills with construction.
Seems like you all work together well, and are proud of what you do. That's what we all need more of. Also do you test all the boats out before delivery?
The guy who uploaded this didn't work anything on the boat. Just took the footage, added some music (hear at the end) and profits from others achievements.
@@MediaStudio88 and he didn't charge us anything, let us admire the skills and talent at work, let us see a whole process normally hidden....um...what exactly has he profited that we didn't?
Beautifull... i did the same process with my dad on a 10ft boat ( except the vacuum) almost 40years ago...my dad's not here anymore ..but the process remind my all the hard work and the itchy fiberglass ...still...........good memories.
Magnificent! I almost don't want to see it in the water. Truly a work of craftmanship a work of art. I'm jelly of you guys who worked on her what a dream job.
Jeff S for those that grew up sailing ⛵️ and watching that beauty been built. What a beautiful work and skills. And just imagining the smell of wood in the air
This is a lovely example of old techniques modernized. Traditionally wooden boats were hard on maintenance. Modern glues and fiberglass allow the same look with much better durability. Was that liquid nails I saw going on there? If I had the money this is the boat I'd buy.
What beautiful craftsmanship. It’s becoming a lost art. Nothing rides like a timber boat I was hoping they wouldn’t glass it but I understand why it had to be done. Great video I wish I was there building with you.
Would love to know the basic details: How many people and how many hours to build, weight, cost to build vs value, where was it built, what materials used, etc.
Wow right down to cut plywood strips hundreds to make the frame to the side of the boat then 3-5 layers of wood and plastic and fiberglass after. Lot of work
i guess you didnt look at the same video all the wood was glued together with cab-o-sil and epoxy and the hull was rolled with mats of polyester and resin. this build is just a "stick and glue" method of boat building i sure hope these boats aint expensive because it isn't going to last as a real wooden ship
Quel merveilleux travail d'équipe pour une réalisation parfaite félicitations et merci à l'heureux propriétaire qui vous a donné les moyen de faire ce bijou
Those guys are ":Boat Builders" as opposed to "Boat Manufacturers". If I had the bucks, I'd buy one of their boats and display it in my living room as the piece of art it is!
avdltd - If you have a 'living room' large enough to 'display it in' . . . . . I would think you may have adequate funds to purchase one of their boats . . . . ! ! ! Ha - ha ! !
хорошая работа, оптимальный подбор технологий и материалов при изготовление корпуса яхты , дружный коллектив и великолепный результат . семь футов под килем вашей лодке и вашей команде . Ваш фильм - моя мечта.
Видео снято еще так как буд-то за один день играючи они это все сделали :) Команда конечно подобралась четкая. Жаль не понять сколько и как готовились материалы все которые учавствовали в постройке, сколько людей всего было задействовано.
Watching this the first time was such a pleasant experience that I had to watch a second time. Not to sound redundant, but what a great video. If I buy a lottery ticket, and win, you can bet this will be on my bucket list. I could sit and marvel about the quality and workmanship for hours, then to actually take it sailing. What a great experience.
Guys its a different time and a different era so we build boats differently from then till now. It's still great to see fine craftsmen at work, a suburb job and Kudo's for all involved. sailing is my second greatest love, you can only imagine what is my first. Thanks for the great entertainment. I have lived and worked in one of the great boat building and history of sailing areas in the world. Mystic Ct.in the US of A. The home of the greatest collection of Sailing pictures those of Morris and Stanley Rosenfeld housed in a repository at Mystic Seaport of which I had a hand. An era of great wealth.
@@bicyclist2 yeah, people say "go to college for a well paying job" kids actually believe them and they wind up without anything all that valuable and no "well paying job".. then those same people are like, "why don't people get any actual skills" then trades are nearly all nepotism and licensing walls so none of these kids who are now adults with basically a home loan worth of non defaultable debt can't even get into these trades even if they wanted to.. all the while the same geezers pulling social security go, "well, you better pay back that student loan, us dupes that could go to college on a summer job and the university ponzi that is profiting a trillion dollars tricked you into getting! well maybe you shouldn't have trusted us, stupid kid lol"
Perhaps replace "talented" with "oriented" and consider the time and effort they've put into building these amazing skills. You could do it too if you were so inclined. :-)
It does my heart good to see men pick up their tools and create such a beautiful thing.
yes

Absolutely correct. But what makes it even more difficult is the fact that one rarely works with angles that are right angled.
@@orbodman That certainly makes things difficult. As I've made built-ins for our house I have concluded that it must have been built before the discovery of the right angle! It certainly does make things much harder. Cheers - Dave
@ZebsFrend You must be a microsurgeon with the world's smallest thicknesser! I would love to see your work.
Awesoeme.
The pride of having worked on that boat!
It is one thing to be a great shipwright when that was the norm, it is another to be at top form when such skills are a rarity.
That is a staggeringly beautiful boat, even more so when you see it was put together.
I'm a master cabinetmaker. I've been doing it for more than 20 years. What these guys do takes immense skill. 07 gents!
hey Richard, do you have some pictures of your work? greets from germany buddy

It slays me to see all that natural wood covered up with fiberglass.
no the paint is the real crime all that mahogany would still be seen under the fiberglass

Just a little research on Google shows that the boat is a Fairlie 55 built just outside Southampton in the south of England.
According to Classic Boat test in 2012, £850,000.00.
Legend! Thank you! I was looking to see some information on this boat.

Endlich mal jemand der mit traditionellen Materialien, aber modernen Abläufen und Technologien konstruiert. Sehr schön.
Beautiful old new boat.
I hope those highly skilled woodworkers are allowed out of the shop often to try out what they make.
At some point you just have to say WOW!! Amazing design, craftsmanship, and execution!
I'm never gonna say "amazing design or craftsmanship"
That's an awful way to die.
WOW!! Amazing design, craftsmanship, and execution!
Che squadra di professionisti... traspira la passione per il mare ed il legno ...complimenti davvero a tutta la squadra..!!
Man what a work of art - beautiful!

This is one of the best boat making videos I have ever seen!
Great video. The audio mix at the end left a lot to be desired, but overall very inspiring.

Beautiful boat and fantastic craftsmanship.
Wonderful, great woodworking skills.
Who the heck would put a thumbs down on this beautiful video and why?
Some fiberglass @$$
Wow right down to cut plywood strips hundreds to make the frame to the side of the boat then 3-5 layers of wood and plastic and fiberglass after. Lot of work
Какая красавица!👍
Обводы- чудо, инженерное искусство пополам с магией!
It's so fashinating watching at these men tremedously skilled to create a beauty like this. That's why one-off boats are so expensive.
A thing of great beauty. Thank God some folks still stay true to the non plastic/carbon boats!
i guess you didnt look at the same video all the wood was glued together with cab-o-sil and epoxy and the hull was rolled with mats of polyester and resin. this build is just a "stick and glue" method of boat building i sure hope these boats aint expensive because it isn't going to last as a real wooden ship
Are there 2, possibly 3 sound tracks playing at the same time?
That'l fool youtubes audio copyrights.
so elegant lines.
Awesome video but the music selection was little hard to listen to.
beautifull ship, my dream sailing boat
Hmmm I finally followed Robert's advice and took woodprix. It's great for beginners, and has some advanced stuff too.
Excellent choice Easter!

The lines and craftsmanship of this boat are top notch. Hats off. Thanks for sharing
great video, never realised how much work goes into making a partly timber sailing boat. looks so small in the water

More craftsman and less college grads.
Unfortunately you can't find anyone willing to train people to do this stuff. I've looked when I was much younger.

You need the college grads to buy the stuff that craftsmen make. Believe me, I can't buy jack.
Fantastic work ! Those frames are near prefect !
what a gorgeous boat!
Fantastic and well put together. Loved seeing the cold molding process. The yacht has some beautiful lines. Who was the designer?
There are still hundreds of west system wooden boats sailing the carribean sea , some of them are 40+ years old.
Great boat!!
Beautiful woodwork. Would love to see inside the cabin
Can't believe those smallish bolts hold the keel safely
Frigging GORGEOUS!!!!
Loose the noise (notice I didn't say music😉😏) and you've got a winner🤗🤗🤗
They did "loose" the music. Perhaps you meant "lose"...
"Loose"?
It's horrible when you try to bash then misspell a simple 4 letter word like lose, makes you the dumbass
