Leo - I’m writing to reforge the idea of how many peoples lives you and the project. I have cancer and I don’t have long to live but watching your videos gives so much joy. Workmanship is just wonderful and the bronze awesome. You making my so much better. Thank You Mike
Just today I showed this channel to another engineer friend of mine, and tried to explain why this is my absolute favorite RUclips channel. The people, the quality of the boat work, Pancho, the quality of the videos, the historic nature of the project, and on and on. I'm proud to have donated, I get to feel like I helped a tiny bit, and I am rewarded regularly with fantastic entertainment. Happy Holidays to the crew and to the whole community.
Good comment, I'll bet that there are hundreds of engineers out there checking the little bell for the next episode ! I know my Dad would be if he were still with us. I'm not an engineer, but I grew up with one, and will always be viscerally drawn to this kind of stuff. Leo's calm, knowing way also adds greatly to this work.
Can confirm, I am also an Engineer and have been telling everyone I know about the channel. It satisfies the curiosity for so many different reasons.....
I have worked with Roger Smith for years, and despite my best efforts I have yet given him a design he couldn't make. It is an absolute thrill to see his parts in Tally Ho
It's so great to see Leo routinely picking the very best of the available options for concepts, materials, detail design, and manufacturing methods. Truly inspirational! Apart from anything else, if the individual parts are works of art (as those Swiss-turned copper clinch rings definitely are, and of course all the cast bronze bracketry, and it goes without saying, the awesome framing and planking) then the people who assemble them will treat them with extra care, diligence and reverence. Thereby "baking in" a goodly portion of love and concern, as well as enriching their own lives by growing and enhancing their storehouse of satisfaction and accomplishment. I have turned some tricky parts from copper and I know it is not straightforward, even on a manual machine where you can exercise feel and discretion to optimise cutting conditions and avert a horrendous dig-in, which would likely wrench the toolbit out of the holder if you're lucky. Even then, a fair bit of "clenching" is involved, on the part of the operator! (Specifically the part which gets sat on when riding a bike.) To a degree, "evil" materials like Inconel or Nitronic are more predictable and amenable to doing it by the book.
Big shout out to R.D. Smith Mfg. for providing TALLY HO with the exact washers they need. Amazing quality. Impressive. Leo has to be one of the luckiest boat builders to find people like R.D. Smith to save the day. Fantastic.
Between Rosie's skills and David's artwork/design, all the narrow cutoffs from the plank stock could be turned into furniture or various woodworking products. The several hundred thousands of us who get our biweekly tickle fix would scoop up their results, adding to the till. Such wonderful wood will hopefully be used down to the chopstick size. Also, a salute to the mechanic twins, who I think speak for nearly all of us faithfully tuning in to this delight.
"This is a lot bigger then just Tally Ho" Truer words have not be spoken. We all have come to look forward to the next and the next and the next video. You sort of have given us a little hope, and that is worth more then the price of gold.
Agree...and when you think of the skills these people are learning and developing, and what they might do with their lives when this project is "complete"...taking what they have learned...the teamwork, the hands-on skills, etc, they will be valuable on many projects. Imagine being able to add the Tally-Ho Porject to your resume.
15:40 "What you're doing is actually affecting a lot of people around the world in a positive way". Completely right, I'm from Libya thousands of miles away, & I follow this great job step by step, episode by episode. You are great guys keep going.
Why the hell is it that I can't get through reading the comments on Leo's videos without tearing up. The community that has grown up around this project is simply fantastic, the supportive comments, the help given so freely. In an internet that can have so much toxicity, this community shines. Thanks Leo for being an inspiration to so many, and thanks to this community for being simply amazing. A very Merry Christmas to you all and a safe, healthy, and prosperous New Year.
I will book a ticket when and if they are available. To sail on this yacht with Leo at the helm would be incredible. I’ve watched every episode with great interest and pleasure. Thanks for the hours of entertainment, it’s been a joy. What a crew. Jim in Spokane.
I told my phycologist that watching Tally Ho's rebirth is a much better therapy for my PTSD than any of the horrible, creepy medicines she has had me on... thank you Leo.
Albert, I'd like to recommend EngelsCoachShop for another source of very pleasant videos involving a very high degree of craftsmanship. Engels and Tally Ho are my two must-see channels every week and for much the same reasons.
Tips from a shipright is another great channel. If you find this sort of stuff therapeutic you might try building or restoring a neglected small boat to fix up. This is Leo's second boat restoration, he started learning boat building and sailing on a much smaller craft.
@@tomzuchowski6590 thanks... I've been watching Engels Coach, Tally Ho, Western Flyer, Acorn to Arabella, and the legendary Louise at tips from the shipwright for a few years now..
David and Daniel should be commended for their generosity. And they are right, this project is something that has become important for many thousands of people around the world. I watch these videos religiously and am enthralled and marvel at the craftsmanship that has gone into the building of this boat. It’s an a amazing project!
I don't know if other subscribers have said this. But I'd love to thank your benefactors for allowing you the use of their property and shop for this project. They are truly some awesome people. I also hope they bring the parrot with them on the maiden voyage of the Tallyhoe.
Yea, I've thought the same thing. To sacrifice their space, shop, privacy, peace and quiet to see this project happening, while remaining anonymous, is amazing. What an incredibly kind gesture, and I also would like to thank them.
Thanks for including the day to day maintenance activities in your videos. It's a good reminder (and first clue for some of us) that blades and bits need regular sharpening and tools don't simply continue endlessly working as designed. I didn't notice much of those activities in this particular video but thought of it when I saw a drill bit smoking and thought to myself "that bit needs sharpening. I wonder how he does that?" You might be dropping those from the content thinking it's boring and you've shown it all before. I'd encourage you to keep including those shots as a level set for viewers like me who might dream of doing something similar someday. This Old House never showed Norm sharpening his hand saw, but you did. Keep it up and keep it real. It's part of what drew me to your channel.
I love how David put it. This project affects so many people around the world, in a positive way. He is right. I live in Denmark, and I get so musch joy from watching your process and progress. All the best of luck and good fortune to all you beautiful people, including all of you, who are following this channel. With kind regards Thomas
Whoah. I went to high school with Matt. Cool to see him pop up in my favorite channel. He's aged about half as much as I have. (And he's being modest - he was a monster on the violin.)
I also liked the comment by the twin that fixed the engine about it being more than about Tally Ho. But I really would like to thank them for taking time out to help the lad out with his car. I remember being in similar spots - far from home, no money, a car I couldn't really afford, and no way out of the hole. The philosophy about the importance of the project is nice, but fixing a volunteers problem - that's a real contribution.
Boxing Day I had a fever of 102 degrees. I got tested for covid but it was negative. The doctor said have you been watching Sampson Boat Co videos, I think it's a relapse of wooden boat fever. Thanks a lot, mate.
Matt, please do me a favor and cherish this time with your brother. These memories are more important than you will ever realize till years have gone by. I lost my brother when he was 36. I miss him everyday.
There's something about being miserable in the cold that makes a hard day of work with your buds that much better and memorable. This video makes me miss that feeling...
Great episode! As the identical twin mechanics repairing the head gasket said, (paraphrased) The Tally Ho project is larger than the folks working on her. Also, following Tally Ho and crew has been balm and solace during one of the worst years around the world in my lifetime. We're all grateful for that! Thanks to everyone involved on site and around the world.
Kudos to Dave n Dan for donating their time and labor.To bad politicians are allergic to helping others,especially when that's what they're paid for.PS.ATTA BOYS N GIRL FOR DONATING YOUR TIME N LABOR,& IT PUTS JOY IN MY HEART
Anyone fancying the thought of building a boat no matter the type, material, and technique, need to view this series of videos. To most, the planning, patience, skill, and investment in tools, time, and money are unimaginable.
This brings a lot of people together.................. thats why this is the only series of videos I have ever donated to. Can you imagine , not just Leo and the gang , but all of us watching, are going to feel when we see her launched for the first time............... Its going to be fantastic.
I love how the parrot wants to be part of what's going on. I also agree with the twins that fixed the truck, this is more than a boat rebuild, you've brought positive vibes to folks around the globe. :)
Macaws are extremely social birds and form strong bonds with people - it’s going to be a sad day when the boat it done because it will truly miss them. Some of these have even gone into a type of depression when their social circumstances change and they will pull their own feathers out. I know Leo doesn’t own the bird but the bird does have a bond with him and the others there
As did I. I don’t sleep very as I suffer from a condition called restless leg syndrome. So I spend a fair bit of time trawling through the internet and RUclips. As a former offshore and dinghy sailor I was initially interested then hooked,
I love seeing Rosie hitting her stride as an apprentice. Truely an inspiration to women everywhere, and especially to myself. Go Rosie! You're awesome! Thanks again for an awesome video Leo! Made my day! ❤️
Wow! Small world: I know Daniel who helped fix the truck. Its great to see good people coming together to accomplish these great projects. Keep up the good work!
I started watching this channel towards the end of lockdown 1. I was searching RUclips for videos on different types of joints for wood. As a former sailor I took a look. I was hooked immediately, not just one one bit, but every aspect of the content. The craftsmanship, the artistry, entertainment value and the different characters involved is truly inspirational. I binged watched the first 80 odd episodes, mostly in the early hours due to not being a very good sleeper. I look forward to every two weeks and begin checking my notifications around Thursday or Friday. Wouldn’t it be great if Leo was to continue making videos for this channel once he is afloat and share his voyages with his many followers. Thanks for sharing up to now Leo, merry Christmas and happy new year to everyone Oh, my beautiful wife bought me a Festool circular saw for Christmas after I showed her a snip of one the videos after someone had donated the same to Leo. I’m a lucky man.
Love seeing Pancho's affection, She reminds me of my sister's Female Pancho who is over 50 years old. Love the craftsmanship being built into the Tally Ho. Anxious to see her afloat.
Great move taking on Rosie, takes her work seriously, well done young lady! A very kind gesture from the two guys who came to fix the young man's truck.
Gotta say I'm relatively new to watching this project, having only climbed onboard about 50 episodes ago. Is been fun to see the progress of the work and as more people have gotten involved in it. I'm just a rank amateur home woodworker living in Kansas, but would love to have a chance to see this process up close. For now, I will continue to enjoy watching other people contributing to the effort while dreaming of the Pacific Northwest. Thanks for taking us along on the ride!
This project affects SO many people, myself included. This channel is one of the reasons I've decided to have a career change. I've applied to join the full-time boat building class at the Boat Building Academy in Lyme Regis. Thank you Leo for taking the time to make these videos. They bring me so much joy and now also hope for a brighter future :)
Leo - Thank you for all the skill, spirit, and craft you bring to this corner of the world. Happy to have you here in the pnw. I very much appreciate how your telling of this part of the Tally Ho journey includes the spirit of this place. The light, the rain, the winds, passion and dedication. The subtle beauty present in the long winter days here. Thank you. I hope the beauty and spirit that the northwest is contributing to the Tally Ho is carried forward for many years to come. Thank you for sharing and all you bring to the pnw.
You have quite a Clan there brother to include Poncho who is a reincarnated Sailor. The twins totally awesome dudes for helping out and Daniel was right this is way way bigger then just Tally Ho. The individuals that have helped in supporting you through this whole effort are not the same individuals that showed up that first day, people that don't even know you have taken the time to build, buy, and provide that's totally awesome the way you brought people and professions together without even realizing it. You Kick-Ass Leo along with the rest of your clan I humble myself to the Master's of Boat Building, you didn't just build a boat you built a family with thousands of people around the world! You seem to be a very humble and thankful man try not to change you have a way to go brother
Great work and it was extremely thoughtful for the mechanics to help out the volunteer with them donating their skills. They were correct, it is much bigger than "just a boat" . Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays and have a prosperous and safe new year. Jeff
David & Daniel, who kindly fixed the truck (what a great thing to do!), are so right - "This is a way bigger thing than just Tally Ho." Your work and videos are keeping me occupied during this pandemic lockdown. Thank you! All the best for 2021
Rosie the riveter was famous during WW2. It is great to see the stools she made and her lucky father getting a present made by his daughter Great craftsmanship.This project has become way more than Tally Ho or even Leo. During these trying times it is showing the true humanity of people. The truck repair was awesome. I hope Leo has a reunion of all these good people at the launching.
The planking is going well, looking nice and tight. It won't be long now until the planking is finished. Then it's the decking is obviously the next big task before fitting out the interior. This is is more than a restoration project, it's an educational how-to project for everyone. We notice that Pancho is obviously the yard supervisor. Stay safe guys and have an enjoyable Christmas / New Year.
I want to tell you Leo how much I value your videos. I'm having a really bad time with depression at the moment, but a new Tally Ho vid always gives me a lift. You really are doing a Rolls Royce job and I am hugely impressed by your skill as a boat builder and a leader.
The way that craftsman think and problem solve, being adaptable, innovative and having the ability use or alter the tools on hand is and always has been a quality that I admired and one which I believe is underrated in our society today. I applaud the men and women craftsmen or craftspeople who do this everyday and teach/encourage their peers to strengthen their own skills. I have been following the project since it's inception and I am always blown away by the way Leo, Pete and the others take seemingly tedious tasks and focus upon them with the attention to detail that will suit this yacht well for decades. Kudos to all involved, as I said you certainly have my admiration.
When I google for "clench rings", I find that you're not the first boat builder to search for them and find that no one has them. I wonder now, after this video, if there will be boat builders, boat yards, marine fastener dealers, and other such people who will be contacting RD Smith manufacturing company to say "while your're making clench rings for Leo Goolden, could you make me about 10,000?".
At 39:09 it dawned on me. Ken Burns is one of your many valuable volunteers and he is handling the editing and background music for you. Well, he is doing a great job and this is one of your best videos capturing the art and sheer joy of building a beautiful boat. Well done.
Leo, my girlfriend and I watched your videos over the summer when we were together but now we’ve been back to indefinite long distance for almost 6 months now but we still love to bond over every episode. Thank you for sharing it with us and helping us be as together as we can this year and we’re sending a lot of love to you and Cecca!
Absolutely loved the bucking explanation. I did aircraft sheet metal work for years, and we did it the other way around (driving the head and using the buck to form the shop head). It's really neat to see how the demands of the craft necessitate different methods of accomplishing similar tasks.
The auto engine mechanic hit the nail on the head: the project is about more than Tally Ho. That larger meaning is what makes much of your success in having loyal patrons and building a team that changes but always learns and becomes more skillful even when doing the most mundane of chores. For true happiness, everyone needs to belong to something bigger than themselves - building something lasting provides that. Best wishes for health and continuing progress in the new year to your band of shipwrights. You should be finished in a couple of years.
Aside from the enjoyment of watching the craftsmanship and work ethics of the folks involved, these videos have also probably increased the number of parrots taken home from pet shops across the world. Good job, as always.
It is amazing evrytime a new episode is presented, to be struck, again and again by the warmth, the kindhearted spirit and the playful, yet focused creativity that Leo and all the good people on Tally Ho generate... as the guys who repaired the car said -"This is so much bigger than Tally Ho, it reaches out everywhere where there are good people who are striving to help each other!!!
It would make the the happiest turner in the world to get some of the scrap from this boat, i don’t know why but it feels like having a piece from the keel off cuts or something like that would be like have a part of the soul of the boat. I’d love to carve you some spoons to use in the kitchen or something too, but I’m sure you can do that yourself, and I’m sure sending scrap out to every nobody who asked would be a logistical nightmare. Just a pipe dream I suppose, but keep up the good work!
Watching that razor sharp plane peel the thin shaving on the corking bevel was amazing! Tally Ho is much more then a boat restoration. It has become a place to get away from all that is going on elsewhere.Old world skill practiced in the modern world! Add the modern use of materials,brinze bolts,copper rivets,etc. Tally Ho will last a century and more.The original craftspersons are wishing they had all the metalworking ability back in their day,for sure. Immersion into the project for however long the video helps me at least maintain some sort of sanity. Thank you Leo,and Thank you Team Tally Ho!
"In all my years I've never seen the like. It has to be more than 100 sea miles and he brings us up on his tail. That's seamanship, Mr. Pullings. My God, that's seamanship."
It took me all the year 2000 to read those Aubrey Maturin novels. I enjoyed them so much that when I finished the last one I had to stop myself going back to the beginning and starting again!
I built a new deck for my grandparents this week and I'm happy to say it's nowhere near as difficult as this is. Thanks for putting some perspective on functional woodworking
There are a couple of sequences in this video that are incredibly beautiful. The wood, the lighting, the symmetry, the craftsmanship, the attention to detail. The entire project and people involved that support the project the volunteers is an amazing site to behold.
My girlfriend is not able to understand why I love watching all of you building Tally Ho if I am not planning on building a boat or helping. Im 73 years old and could still do certain jobs if I was so inclined. If you were much closer to where I lived I certainly would be there to help in anyway i could. I would probably be penang rivitts or perhaps sharpening tools or making coffee or tea. I would do anything to be of help around a boat. I was once a sailor on destroyers for six years and I love the sea or anything to do with the sea. Really, once a sailor always a sailor. All of you are doing a marvelous job and I wait for each video to come out so that I can see the progress. All of you keep up the great work. Be safe
I enjoyed hearing you say “It makes it look much neater in here.” In reference to the tar paper removal in the boat. It is certainly becoming much more clear that there is an inside and outside of the boat.
I totally agree with the twins. This project is not only restoring a "boat". It has grown so big over the globe that you as soon as you make a stop the community will be already waiting for you. :-D
Leo you’re not simply building a boat, you’re making a work of art. So pleasing to watch! Loving the camaraderie of the team (including the animals!!) 🦮🐕🦺🐔 🦜
Leo; "Hey Rosie.......what ya doing?" Rosie " Oh, just cursing out Pete for slipping out and leaving me in the spotlight!!" I love the photography with the snow and wooden block hanging in the air, but I also love how you credit your crew and those who would help them! Great Captains work on the land as well!! DD
Many thanks Leo ... all well done, and we support all the positive comments. BUCKING TOOL... The clamp obviously works very well but could be enhanced if you added as much mass to it as possible in a direct line of the rivet. That would substantially reduce the hammering requirement. Cheers, Brian.
You don't think it's "Why are you holding a chicken?" Am I the only one who finds the fact that there are chickens roaming the boat shop ridiculous but in the best possible way?
Make a overhead line and put 12 rings on it. Then loop the power cord on it . That way the cord is not in the way, as you cut long boards. Plus use a air hammer and a buck for the copper rivets.
Okay, Rowan is my favorite. I'm also a EDM fan, who makes audio actuated laser devices in my free time. Sounds like you got a cool lifestyle man. Keep it up!

The philosophy about the importance of the project is nice, but fixing a volunteers problem - that's a real contribution.
agree 100% to all you wrote.
As a mechanic I always wished there was another me to gave me a hand fixing cars. Must be nice to have 2 of you ........lol
Same here. I've always admired Octopus when replacing Timing Chains.
Boxing Day I had a fever of 102 degrees. I got tested for covid but it was negative. The doctor said have you been watching Sampson Boat Co videos, I think it's a relapse of wooden boat fever. Thanks a lot, mate.
Matt, please do me a favor and cherish this time with your brother. These memories are more important than you will ever realize till years have gone by. I lost my brother when he was 36. I miss him everyday.
Well said - time is fleeting and life is fragile. Sorry to hear about your brother.
David and Daniel's selflessness is the energy we're manifesting for 2021
I simply fail to understand why anyone would give this a thumbs down.
They're Pete fans.

I’ve found myself hitting it accidentally sometimes. I’m sure that’s all it is.
@@clayz1 just watch it with adblock.
There's something about being miserable in the cold that makes a hard day of work with your buds that much better and memorable. This video makes me miss that feeling...
She gets more beautiful with every plank and rivet!
One of the few RUclips channels that can have a 46 minute video and it doesn't feel too long.
Great episode! As the identical twin mechanics repairing the head gasket said, (paraphrased) The Tally Ho project is larger than the folks working on her. Also, following Tally Ho and crew has been balm and solace during one of the worst years around the world in my lifetime. We're all grateful for that! Thanks to everyone involved on site and around the world.
Kudos to Dave n Dan for donating their time and labor.To bad politicians are allergic to helping others,especially when that's what they're paid for.PS.ATTA BOYS N GIRL FOR DONATING YOUR TIME N LABOR,& IT PUTS JOY IN MY HEART
A Dark Christmas night in the UK just got a bit brighter.
Did you forget to lower brightness on your screen? 😃
@@user-ge9bb5hw1z no but she did watch the video in her underwear with the blinds open which made the people across the way night a little brighter.
Tier 4?
What? Christmas was 2 days ago lol.
? Why did I here the background music of the TWILIGHT ZONE when I read Jeremy's comment ? 🤔
Anyone fancying the thought of building a boat no matter the type, material, and technique, need to view this series of videos. To most, the planning, patience, skill, and investment in tools, time, and money are unimaginable.
This brings a lot of people together.................. thats why this is the only series of videos I have ever donated to. Can you imagine , not just Leo and the gang , but all of us watching, are going to feel when we see her launched for the first time............... Its going to be fantastic.
I love how the parrot wants to be part of what's going on. I also agree with the twins that fixed the truck, this is more than a boat rebuild, you've brought positive vibes to folks around the globe. :)
Macaws are extremely social birds and form strong bonds with people - it’s going to be a sad day when the boat it done because it will truly miss them. Some of these have even gone into a type of depression when their social circumstances change and they will pull their own feathers out. I know Leo doesn’t own the bird but the bird does have a bond with him and the others there
Thank goodness for folks like David and Daniel !! Salt of the earth.
Restoring a historical boat and faith in humanity at the same time. Keep up the good work all of you!
This is the only series I've joined mid way through, gone back to watch every video, and make sure I've left a like on every single video
As did I. I don’t sleep very as I suffer from a condition called restless leg syndrome. So I spend a fair bit of time trawling through the internet and RUclips. As a former offshore and dinghy sailor I was initially interested then hooked,
Still go back and watch the early episodes. Can't believe the boat has come this far from what she was.
Yep , IKR
Me too
I love having Rosie there! Hi from another lady boat restorer/builder in SF Bay.
Boat building is fun, isn't it?!
" This is a way bigger thing than just Tally Ho "....Indeed, I believe this as well....
and a political message??
@@dave_in_florida My belief is rooted in how creators help each other and exchange ideas, globally.
110yo sailboat: Call me "Firewood"...
Leo: "Hold my beer...."
Love Poncho pulling at your coat like 'How dare you ignore me!'.
I love seeing Rosie hitting her stride as an apprentice. Truely an inspiration to women everywhere, and especially to myself.
Go Rosie! You're awesome!
Thanks again for an awesome video Leo! Made my day! ❤️
She’s Rosie The Riveter! Good job Rosie!
Wow! Small world: I know Daniel who helped fix the truck. Its great to see good people coming together to accomplish these great projects. Keep up the good work!
I started watching this channel towards the end of lockdown 1. I was searching RUclips for videos on different types of joints for wood. As a former sailor I took a look. I was hooked immediately, not just one one bit, but every aspect of the content. The craftsmanship, the artistry, entertainment value and the different characters involved is truly inspirational. I binged watched the first 80 odd episodes, mostly in the early hours due to not being a very good sleeper. I look forward to every two weeks and begin checking my notifications around Thursday or Friday.
Wouldn’t it be great if Leo was to continue making videos for this channel once he is afloat and share his voyages with his many followers.
Thanks for sharing up to now Leo, merry Christmas and happy new year to everyone
Oh, my beautiful wife bought me a Festool circular saw for Christmas after I showed her a snip of one the videos after someone had donated the same to Leo. I’m a lucky man.
Happy Holidays Leo and everybody that will read this message!!!
❤️🎄🎁🤣
Love seeing Pancho's affection, She reminds me of my sister's Female Pancho who is over 50 years old. Love the craftsmanship being built into the Tally Ho. Anxious to see her afloat.
Leo, you are affecting very many people in all the right ways. Repairing of the head gasket, a case in point.
Great move taking on Rosie, takes her work seriously, well done young lady! A very kind gesture from the two guys who came to fix the young man's truck.
46 mins😍 what a treat, multiple brews required
Gotta say I'm relatively new to watching this project, having only climbed onboard about 50 episodes ago. Is been fun to see the progress of the work and as more people have gotten involved in it. I'm just a rank amateur home woodworker living in Kansas, but would love to have a chance to see this process up close. For now, I will continue to enjoy watching other people contributing to the effort while dreaming of the Pacific Northwest. Thanks for taking us along on the ride!
Damn, David and Daniel are MVPs.
This project affects SO many people, myself included. This channel is one of the reasons I've decided to have a career change. I've applied to join the full-time boat building class at the Boat Building Academy in Lyme Regis. Thank you Leo for taking the time to make these videos. They bring me so much joy and now also hope for a brighter future :)
Great to hear!
Poncho Just ensuring everyone is quite clear on the hierarchy in that outfit. Wishing you a productive 2021.
Poncho nearly “stole the show” on this one. Adorable to see him pester Leo whenever he’s within reach.
He has become the honorary safety inspector.
Can he fly away?
Dustmadeout, he could fly away, if SHE was a he.
@@stevenr8606 How do you know it's she?
Pancho has really taken a shine to Leo! She's all touchy-feely with him. He's now officially part of her flock.
Leo - Thank you for all the skill, spirit, and craft you bring to this corner of the world. Happy to have you here in the pnw. I very much appreciate how your telling of this part of the Tally Ho journey includes the spirit of this place. The light, the rain, the winds, passion and dedication. The subtle beauty present in the long winter days here. Thank you. I hope the beauty and spirit that the northwest is contributing to the Tally Ho is carried forward for many years to come. Thank you for sharing and all you bring to the pnw.
You have quite a Clan there brother to include Poncho who is a reincarnated Sailor. The twins totally awesome dudes for helping out and Daniel was right this is way way bigger then just Tally Ho. The individuals that have helped in supporting you through this whole effort are not the same individuals that showed up that first day, people that don't even know you have taken the time to build, buy, and provide that's totally awesome the way you brought people and professions together without even realizing it. You Kick-Ass Leo along with the rest of your clan I humble myself to the Master's of Boat Building, you didn't just build a boat you built a family with thousands of people around the world! You seem to be a very humble and thankful man try not to change you have a way to go brother
Rosey looked like she had to think about her childhood pet dying to be able to stop laughing through the interview.😊
They missed nick naming her 'Rosey the riveter' also!
i think Rosie is sexy and can appreciate a working woman.
Three cheers for David and Daniel! We never know how our skills might come in handy to projects we cherish!
Great work and it was extremely thoughtful for the mechanics to help out the volunteer with them donating their skills. They were correct, it is much bigger than "just a boat" . Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays and have a prosperous and safe new year. Jeff
Can't wait to see how you get Pete in front of the camera for a "get to know you" episode. I'm betting tranquilizer dart. 😁
I think that Pancho is an excellent representation of the entire Tally Ho crew, thanks for sharing!
David & Daniel, who kindly fixed the truck (what a great thing to do!), are so right - "This is a way bigger thing than just Tally Ho."
Your work and videos are keeping me occupied during this pandemic lockdown. Thank you! All the best for 2021
Rosie the riveter was famous during WW2. It is great to see the stools she made and her lucky father getting a present made by his daughter Great craftsmanship.This project has become way more than Tally Ho or even Leo. During these trying times it is showing the true humanity of people. The truck repair was awesome. I hope Leo has a reunion of all these good people at the launching.
The planking is going well, looking nice and tight. It won't be long now until the planking is finished. Then it's the decking is obviously the next big task before fitting out the interior. This is is more than a restoration project, it's an educational how-to project for everyone. We notice that Pancho is obviously the yard supervisor. Stay safe guys and have an enjoyable Christmas / New Year.
So we still have Rosie the Riveter in 2020 .
😁😎Exactly!😎😁
You just made my day :-) !!!!!
I thought the same, am waiting the rosie the rivoter pose

I have watched all of your videos. You have inspired me to sit in my shop and drink beer watching your videos. Keep up the awesome work Leo.
Good work sir.
Like AvE says
"I love hard work, I could watch it all day" 😁
I want to tell you Leo how much I value your videos. I'm having a really bad time with depression at the moment, but a new Tally Ho vid always gives me a lift. You really are doing a Rolls Royce job and I am hugely impressed by your skill as a boat builder and a leader.
The way that craftsman think and problem solve, being adaptable, innovative and having the ability use or alter the tools on hand is and always has been a quality that I admired and one which I believe is underrated in our society today. I applaud the men and women craftsmen or craftspeople who do this everyday and teach/encourage their peers to strengthen their own skills. I have been following the project since it's inception and I am always blown away by the way Leo, Pete and the others take seemingly tedious tasks and focus upon them with the attention to detail that will suit this yacht well for decades. Kudos to all involved, as I said you certainly have my admiration.
When I google for "clench rings", I find that you're not the first boat builder to search for them and find that no one has them. I wonder now, after this video, if there will be boat builders, boat yards, marine fastener dealers, and other such people who will be contacting RD Smith manufacturing company to say "while your're making clench rings for Leo Goolden, could you make me about 10,000?".
At 39:09 it dawned on me. Ken Burns is one of your many valuable volunteers and he is handling the editing and background music for you. Well, he is doing a great job and this is one of your best videos capturing the art and sheer joy of building a beautiful boat. Well done.
Leo, my girlfriend and I watched your videos over the summer when we were together but now we’ve been back to indefinite long distance for almost 6 months now but we still love to bond over every episode. Thank you for sharing it with us and helping us be as together as we can this year and we’re sending a lot of love to you and Cecca!
Absolutely loved the bucking explanation. I did aircraft sheet metal work for years, and we did it the other way around (driving the head and using the buck to form the shop head). It's really neat to see how the demands of the craft necessitate different methods of accomplishing similar tasks.
It's going quick. Won't belong before those caulking mallets are ringing out!
Well done David and Daniel, it's good to see that there are still some selfless people left, Happy New Year guys, let's hope it's a better one 👍
The auto engine mechanic hit the nail on the head: the project is about more than Tally Ho. That larger meaning is what makes much of your success in having loyal patrons and building a team that changes but always learns and becomes more skillful even when doing the most mundane of chores. For true happiness, everyone needs to belong to something bigger than themselves - building something lasting provides that. Best wishes for health and continuing progress in the new year to your band of shipwrights. You should be finished in a couple of years.
Aside from the enjoyment of watching the craftsmanship and work ethics of the folks involved, these videos have also probably increased the number of parrots taken home from pet shops across the world. Good job, as always.
It is amazing evrytime a new episode is presented, to be struck, again and again by the warmth, the kindhearted spirit and the playful, yet focused creativity that Leo and all the good people on Tally Ho generate... as the guys who repaired the car said -"This is so much bigger than Tally Ho, it reaches out everywhere where there are good people who are striving to help each other!!!
It would make the the happiest turner in the world to get some of the scrap from this boat, i don’t know why but it feels like having a piece from the keel off cuts or something like that would be like have a part of the soul of the boat. I’d love to carve you some spoons to use in the kitchen or something too, but I’m sure you can do that yourself, and I’m sure sending scrap out to every nobody who asked would be a logistical nightmare. Just a pipe dream I suppose, but keep up the good work!
Daniel and David,
What a fantastic thing to do, got him out of a real spot, credit to you, thank you.
Watching that razor sharp plane peel the thin shaving on the corking bevel was amazing! Tally Ho is much more then a boat restoration. It has become a place to get away from all that is going on elsewhere.Old world skill practiced in the modern world! Add the modern use of materials,brinze bolts,copper rivets,etc. Tally Ho will last a century and more.The original craftspersons are wishing they had all the metalworking ability back in their day,for sure. Immersion into the project for however long the video helps me at least maintain some sort of sanity. Thank you Leo,and Thank you Team Tally Ho!
"In all my years I've never seen the like. It has to be more than 100 sea miles and he brings us up on his tail. That's seamanship, Mr. Pullings. My God, that's seamanship."
It took me all the year 2000 to read those Aubrey Maturin novels. I enjoyed them so much that when I finished the last one I had to stop myself going back to the beginning and starting again!
@@jmw5233 I have never read the books but adore the movie. I shall grab the first in the series from Amazon now. Thanks 😊🤘⛵
Been through the series twice. They'll be a third in the not so distant future.
@@moebeddah2288 I find as I get older I have to wait shorter and shorter times between revisits of much-loved series.

I built a new deck for my grandparents this week and I'm happy to say it's nowhere near as difficult as this is. Thanks for putting some perspective on functional woodworking
There are a couple of sequences in this video that are incredibly beautiful. The wood, the lighting, the symmetry, the craftsmanship, the attention to detail. The entire project and people involved that support the project the volunteers is an amazing site to behold.
My girlfriend is not able to understand why I love watching all of you building Tally Ho if I am not planning on building a boat or helping. Im 73 years old and could still do certain jobs if I was so inclined. If you were much closer to where I lived I certainly would be there to help in anyway i could. I would probably be penang rivitts or perhaps sharpening tools or making coffee or tea. I would do anything to be of help around a boat. I was once a sailor on destroyers for six years and I love the sea or anything to do with the sea. Really, once a sailor always a sailor. All of you are doing a marvelous job and I wait for each video to come out so that I can see the progress. All of you keep up the great work. Be safe
I enjoyed hearing you say “It makes it look much neater in here.” In reference to the tar paper removal in the boat. It is certainly becoming much more clear that there is an inside and outside of the boat.
I totally agree with the twins. This project is not only restoring a "boat". It has grown so big over the globe that you as soon as you make a stop the community will be already waiting for you. :-D
Leo you’re not simply building a boat, you’re making a work of art. So pleasing to watch! Loving the camaraderie of the team (including the animals!!) 🦮🐕🦺🐔 🦜
“They’re brothers, they”re brothers helping brothers”😂😅❤
Leo; "Hey Rosie.......what ya doing?" Rosie " Oh, just cursing out Pete for slipping out and leaving me in the spotlight!!"
I love the photography with the snow and wooden block hanging in the air, but I also love how you credit your crew and those who would help them! Great Captains work on the land as well!! DD
Many thanks Leo ... all well done, and we support all the positive comments.
BUCKING TOOL... The clamp obviously works very well but could be enhanced if you added as much mass to it as possible in a direct line of the rivet. That would substantially reduce the hammering requirement. Cheers, Brian.
To all the volunteers and patrons Merry Christmas you are special people!!
Great to see the twins fixing that Mazda. Those are type of friends you need.
"What are you doing there, Rosie?" Next big meme gives Pete a break ;)
You don't think it's "Why are you holding a chicken?" Am I the only one who finds the fact that there are chickens roaming the boat shop ridiculous but in the best possible way?
Make a overhead line and put 12 rings on it. Then loop the power cord on it . That way the cord is not in the way, as you cut long boards. Plus use a air hammer and a buck for the copper rivets.
Okay, Rowan is my favorite. I'm also a EDM fan, who makes audio actuated laser devices in my free time. Sounds like you got a cool lifestyle man. Keep it up!
Big ups to whomever is responsible for the really cool, subtle shot framing that shows up at 9:45! Well done!
