I want to thank the persson who posted this video. Terry is my grandfather and I really miss him. Watching his reminds me of the adventures I would get to go on with him. :) Once again, thank you.
I'm glad you found it. I loaned my old camera to a friend that day as I took my usual photos, not knowing he was going to use the video, which they did not do very well yet. He then used a few of my stills and added more bits and pieces and came up with this. I thought he did a good job. I miss your grandpa too.
Great video thanks for the documentary on this lifestyle and type of fishing. My dad and older brother used to go watch the dory races every year during the seventies. My dad ended up having a 24’ banks dory built to fish off Metlakatla Island with after he retired and loved it.
That's got me thinking .............. Mostly thinking we don't have these in the UK and it looks like we're missing out. Um. Also thinking, running up the beach like that, you're going to need a replaceable ablative coating like maybe GRP over (well, under) the ply too?
+Farweasel The boats have fiberglass and then paint over the wood. Some are experimenting with different coatings for the bottom. A lot of them have double wood for the bottom as well. It's the only fleet like it anywhere. They don't have to go far to fish, and there are a variety of good bottom fish as well as crab and salmon in season..

Thank you for making a video about my Grandpa. Miss him every day and wish I would've had my head on my shoulders in time to learn more from him.

Thanks you très your boats is very good
Can a plan be bought somewhere?
Respect goes out to the Learned family and PC dorymen that keep this important tradition alive in Oregon.
That's a real old soul. Would have love to learn from a guy like him.
Terry was a MASTER !!!! RIP TERRY THE BOAT MASTER . 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😭

Love this video!
Rest in Peace Terry.
Where can one buy the plans?
Not from any of the builders. Most have them built locally or they build their own.
I guess the concept of displacement was too much to explain for this age group😁
great guy. amazing boats.
