Thank you, lovely ship. May she be lucky and her crew great.. Enjoy our beautiful ocean planet. # Heroes AtSea.
she>s a work of art.
Wow what a wonderful experience and the launch...what a feast! Lovely
Love the way so many people turned out for the launching of this lovely vessel. Young, old and all in between. You don't see gatherings like this much these days
Lovely. No happier and better people than boat-builders!
Beautiful indeed. This is community.
beautiful , period !
Wow awesome senses u have captured . thank u for Sharing your experience with us.... ❤😍🇱🇰
Coming up on 5 years from this post date. I'm going to look for the boat Nov. 2017.
Quite a process. The "side support" car that supported the listing-to-starboard hull as it slid down the ways was just part of a dramatic, and successful launch. The bowsprit looked like it cleared that piling to port by at least a couple of at most 3 feet.
Burnham’s smile at the end says it all, proud papa
Wow. What a great day!
A beautiful vessel.
Beautiful vessel Harold, I live a few miles from the place from which your name originated (Burnham on sea somerset UK ).
Such a beauty
What a beautiful boat.
I really would have loved to see the building of this boat. Pinky schooner Tiger is longer then Ardelle, but somehow looks like she has less room, on deck and below. I understand Ardelle is 58 feet long, but with her high freeboard and spacious beam, she looks larger. I bet she's a joy to sail. I wonder how she would do in rough seas?
With a good crew it would be ok.
I bet that was a fun ride going in.
nice - on the great lakes of Canada & U.S.A., side launching is a tradition
Can't believe how deep that hull and keel are....will they use rocks as ballast? The launch made my jaw drop, until I saw in the view from the 2nd camera how it was launched on one side...amazing!
On what was this video edited? How can I do a slow zoom into pictures. Also how can I show a slider show then I can narrate, what is a good video editing program to do that?
Essex County----my old home area!!!!
Essex county here too, UK. Greetings chaps.
was it supposed to lean to the side like that when it launched?
Benny Hill yup, historic Essex side launching.
Nice boat
Traditional Essex side-launching
Good luck
i think i saw this one
photos? i'm out
How long do wooden hulls last?
Like any boat, as long as you take care of them. There are wooden boats still afloat that are well over 100 years old. Some of their longevity also comes from how they were built to begin with. If it's a quality build and a tight boat, it'll literally last forever, as long as someone keeps maintaining it.
@@meadmaker4525 thanks
See Tally Ho yacht rebuild on YT. 112 yr old yacht.

Nice boat but launch was a fiasco - lucky she didn't roll.
That's a traditional launch, and how ships have been launched from that location for centuries. A second slipway is built parallel to the one under the keel, and the bilge is leaned over onto it, then it is released into the water. It lets them launch into a much smaller and shallower channel and from a steeper bank as well. Essex is actually famous for sideways launches.
Never near rolling. An unloaded hull like floats like a cork.
I'm wondering though, why not rest the boat on a carrier unit, so there's no rubbing of the hull going in?
I was finished with this video once the gold fringed, unconstitutional, and illegally mutated Jolly Roger was displayed. 1:40
Yer hangin' yer hat on the wrong hook, son. The fringe is outside of the field of the flag, and is therefore a decoration near by, and not a modification of the design. In fact, the fringe has never been called for, forbidden, or even mentioned in any Act of Congress, Executive Order, or Law. All those stories about how it represents Admiralty or Martial law are bunk. It cannot be "illegal" or "unconstitutional" in any possible definition of those words. There are more than enough problems in the world worth being angry about that you don't need to be upset over a problem that doesn't even exist outside the minds of conspiracy theorists and liars, so you're now free to enjoy the entire video documenting the launch of the lovely boat.
why always the irritating Celtic music
Truly. I loath folksy stuff because it's fake. Such society with it's toughness and hardships and true community of which such music is an intrinsic and essential part no longer exists. People talk about community but with a very few exceptions its bollocks. I find the modern take on folk music shallow and disrespectful. I'm also an old fart but there it is.
Most publicly performed music is irritating. Bonding community music requires commitment from a high percentage of the community. Community only really reveals itself in the face of adversity.
Google " Soweto Choir " for illustration.
It's a pity you don't have something you can enjoy from your history. This is music of the ordinary people not the high faluting'.
Hmm. Not sure who you are responding too, but I can't find any sense in that the respondents here don't have anything they can enjoy from history. I am very interested in history and take great pleasure in it. My comment speaks to how we play at community these days.
High hopes.
Very amateuristic.
As is design,propellor should and could be fat deeper.
No go @7Bft say 30 knots North Sea
