- We leave the beach, do a few tacks at Bribie Island and return. Nothing exciting happens, just a pleasant sail in 10-15kts. This video is a nice way to kill an hour & a half with mindless viewing, guaranteed not to over stimulate.
I come back from time to time just to see how stable this boat is under sail! Amazing! Those chesapeake oystermen knew what they were doing,great execution of design,Mac!😉👌
Thanks, yes, and they always copied the best boat. Tempo is the result of years of trial and error by those fishermen/boatbuilders
A lovely bow!
Magnificent day 😊
Yall are having Summer and we are having winter in Pensacola, florida
Sweet :) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She's a real beauty! An impressive performance!
I noticed we Subscribed a while ago 😊
Sailing idyll !! Such a stable seaworthy boat.This vid shows why Oyster fishermen used them on the chesapeake bay!grat build Mac Horton!!👍
OK. SO where's the groovy dance music? You know that "'swing"' music you had in your other vids? That was great!
I didn't know anybody beside me liked that music, thanks!
Thanks for the explanation of camera mount. Well done.
TEMPO is such a lovely boat!!!! Enjoy watching you sail, I listened to a soft loop of Fila Brazillias Tunstall and Californian Haddock whilst watching, A little splash a little dash. Happy New Year!!!!
Thanks Jim! Fila Brazillia is one of my long time favorite groups.
Now that is what I would call a well executed sail. Like you, I take great delight in never using my paddle or Auxiliary engine.
Tempo seems a great name for such a lovely vessel in the hands of someone who knows how to handle her.
I would love to know just how you mounted the camera. Despite the limitations of wide angle lenses with their curved horizons, this is still very watchable. Thanks for your efforts to record your trip.
Here's the aft cam mount. It's kinda to hard to see in the clutter but it's a laminated staff or bow tensioned with fwd guys to prevent shake. The idea is to get the cam off the boat. imgur.com/OUQvCdB
Here's more pics: imgur.com/a/hUD3r7W. Spinnaker Sound videos were the first made using a GoPro7 Black and a "Hohem iSteady Pro 3 (not shown in above pics)
I don't own an engine. I use a pair of oars as auxiliary power.
What design and length is this sharpie?
Absolutely Beautiful
Thank you!. She's 18'. I built Tempo from Reuel Parker's "The Sharpie Book". I highly recommend this book.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thankyou ! :)
Very nice! I have a few questions,
what are the dimensions? Length, beam and hight? How much water does she draw centerboard up and down.
And is the centerboard weighted with lead or is this Sharpie unballasted?
Thanks David. Length is 18', Beam 5.6', mast is 20', draws 15" board up, @4' down. Centreboard is weighted just enough to make it sink. There's no ballast. Tempo was built from Reuel Parker's "The Sharpie Book". An excellent book for all kinds of common sense solutions.
@@tilroh awesome, thank you, it is a beautifully simple boat, I am thinking about built me a small sharpie and will check out that book.
@@hinahanta You're welcome David. Regardless of what boat you build, "The Sharpie Book" would be a benefit.
@@tilroh Hi,
Please can you tell me if she was inspired by the "18-foot modified Sharpie Skiff (Chesapeake)" or the "19-foot Small Ohio Sharpie" ?
Great vid and camera position! Puts one at water level with ya'll! Do ya have a vid explaining the snotter rig? That 's something one does not see every day. Would like to have seen two life jackets but that is a personal choice. Thanks again for sharing!
Here's how others have done it: duckduckgo.com/?q=sprit+rig+snotter&t=ffab&atb=v1-1&iar=images&iax=images&ia=images We're going for a sail after Easter and will video Tempo's rig set-up. Cheers!
What's pulling you along?
Ha ha, thanks!
