Oh please do have fun with the ads. They're hilarious to watch. A boring straight faced ad read would just be an annoying interuption to skip though, so this is much better.
Hilarious. Multiple use of the phrase ‘dry mounting’ throughout this episode may be an indicator of carnal frustration in the team, drilling holes in things is also a potential hint, not sure how increased carnal input can be had to stop further holes are made in things. Stroking a Curley head whilst working on the head is a way to get a head There …just like at my end, every thing is well vented. I’m now going to Tazer my face with said product standing in a pool of cider Classic!
Being ever so fair skinned have no need of a Foreo Bear... cough cough wink - but I have bumped up my monthly Patreon so you guys can find relief from joking your way through the ad's. Enjoyed the video - I simply allow the too tech stuff to waft over my head...
This is going to be the coolest sailboat of all time. Most youtube channels are focused on quantity of content, changing the subject matter from video to video, staying under 15 minutes, annoying clickbaity titles and people making dumb faces in the thumbnail, etc. People have short attention spans, I guess. But Leo, somehow you've cracked the code on going deep on the subject matter, doing your work to a very high quality standard (and giving the crew the necessary time to do so), putting out longish videos that are also to a very high standard, and keeping the audience engaged and entertained. So impressive. This is my favorite youtube channel by far- I've watched every video for many years now. I can't wait to see the project done, but I'll also be sad to no longer have these awesome videos every two weeks.
I can only agree. Rarely have I seen a crew deliver such excellent work with so much enthusiasm over such a long period of time and yes, I too hope that after the Tally Ho is launched we will continue to see the path this wonderful ship takes. I wish her always good winds and always enough water under the keel.
Leo has been serious throughout the entire Tally Ho project, no corners have been cut. However he does have a great sense of humor and enjoys a good hearted laugh! Hats off to Leo and the entire Tally Ho crew.
Or, they're like Doug Jackson, and just beg for money while doing incredibly slapdash and dangerous things. Leo and his crew are the polar opposite and a joy to watch.
@@thomasbecker9676 reading your comment I wanted to respond but realised you are not worth the effort as I would never get those seconds it takes to write a reply back again but as you see I wasted part of life.
This is the only channel where I am happy to see sponsor ads. It means leo and the team can continue their amazing work and it all goes to a good constructive wholesome place.
Leo's (potentially) burgeoning career as a top-notch illustrator is only furthered by this episode! The staggering level of quality and workmanship the Sampson crew routinely delivers obviously extends to the electrical and plumbing systems! This isn't your grandfather's pilot cutter! Tally Ho is a 21st century, cutting edge vessel from stem to stern!
Leo should publish a book of his illustrations over the years on this project. I also found myself laughing out loud several times during this video. So informative and yet so entertaining.
You can tell Leo and the crew have a great sense of humor/humour and to feature it in the ads gives us that much better sense of their toil and trouble and loves.
It's good to see everyone is having fun too! One of the main things I like from this channel is the high standard of quality that Leo sets for every part of the boat. And secondly, that he doesn't try to do everything by himself but instead is able to source experts and craftsman to realize it.
I think Albert Stranges mind would be blown if he knew all these technological systems would one day be in one of his boat designs 113years later. Impressive team
The wiring, so far, is SUPER ELEGANT and well laid out. My compliments to whoever is installing all wiring. For sailboats, this is crucial so you can quickly follow things when you have trouble. Nicely done!
Tally ho is becoming a boat that is combining the best of old and new technology. It really takes someone with Leos experience to put something like this together It is not just the quality of the build that makes this special, it is knowing what you need in a boat to make it a comfortable boat to cross an ocean. A lot of boats may be built with perfect craftsman ship but they may also hardly ever leave port. I don't believe Tally ho has a history of being one of those boats and Leo has never built her as a floating museum piece. But instead he is building a cruising boat as good as the best out there. This combined with Tally Ho history makes it something special.
A lot of it is beyond me… but I appreciate it. I’m learning a lot. One of which is that I should never attempt that lol. Two, it makes sense in my brain how it all goes together like a puzzle. I really appreciate that.
When I started my apprenticeship as an electrical engineer many many years ago, I got told by a tutor that dc made your hair stand on end and smoke, ac made it wavy and curly and smoke more. 😂
Like any great sailor, he immerses himself into every detail of his vessel, he has knowledge of all of them, so that he can quickly assess issues, and track down their causes. He is involved in the design and layout process, and lets the experts deal with the higher technical details. He is an amazing young leader, and he has been so from the get go. Love watching their progress, and growth as humans and craftspeople. As a fellow lowly house carpenter, I am always infinitely impressed!!
Dear CalamityBrainBand 👍👏👌 Very well said, very well indeed. Exactly my thoughts too. Therefore I wanted to comment similar, but fortunately you already did all the writing work. 😁 ;-) Best regards, luck and health in particular.
Good summation. Most sailors in time, become Jacks of all trades, because they have to be able to fix a boat, sometimes alone at sea, in less than ideal conditions without a warehouse of spare parts and tools on hand. Knowing your vessel, and the way it functions back-to-front, makes you a good and safe sailor that can perform repairs, and perform emergency actions when needed.
Yeah, could imagine the conversations between the companies and their advertisement consultants after they saw these? "We pay you millions and these boat builders give us a better result"
Joe really seems to be the sort of person you call when you want everything done right. The knowledge and attention he puts into the systems is very reassuring.
So much redundancy, so much neatness, so much "ship shape" in everything on and in Tally Ho, she really is and will be a thing of beauty! Well done guys, can't wait to see the rest of the fit out. Cheers👍
I swear Leo - there is NO ONE from your team accross all the years you rebuild Tally Ho, that i do not like :D Everyone is so symphathetic, so energized, so up to teamwork and filled with joy of doing something great together that I desire to work with you all
As a commercial Electrician, I had to make some tight bends in heavy cables (200 to 500 MCM). I made up a couple of thick wall aluminum pipes, one inch dia and 3/4 inch, threaded on one end and with a coupling and a 'smooth bore' bushing. If you can't find a smooth bore, you can machine the threads out of a regular one. If you cut the cable to length before bending, you will have to re-trim the now staggered inner wires, but pre-cutting makes for easier access to the bend site. Since I had access to several lathes, I knurled the end of each pipe to give a better grip, since dielectric grease seems to find it's way onto every tool. They made nice, neat 90 degree bends in the stiffest of cables...👍
I like the redundancies built into the electric systems. At sea, what ever can go wrong will eventually go wrong and it's those multiple backup systems that will get you to a safe port. I especially like the dedicated engine cranking battery with the ability to employ the house battery. Many years ago I taught that type of setup and installed it in several sailboats myself.
I worry that the crew working on Arabella are not as experienced as I’d hope. They have wires hanging out while out on the water and their systems were mostly non-operational prior to the hastened launch date. Anyway, not the page to raise concerns, but Leo and team are doing everything top notch! THIS is the way to build a boat folks, here on Leo’s Boat World Channel. 😊
Hey Leo, I’ve watched every video so far! I’m an electrician in the UK and moving into prosumer AC/DC systems domestically and commercially. This is great to see how your implementing different systems like we do in canal boats here! Just a thought I know your spark mentioned RCBO’s for your AC side circuits feeding the boat but we are moving now into AFDD’s which are an over current device, RCD device and an Arc detection device rolled into one. While there more expensive they are now coming into our industry in certain areas… with the amount of wood in your boat I’d maybe consider fitting these which will trip and indicate with an led if an Arc is detected before it becomes something much worse that an RCBO or MCB might not even detect. Sorry if someone’s already mentioned this haven’t made it through all the comments 😂 All the best with the build. Look forward to seeing Tally Ho on the water!
The way Leo breaks down the electrical system was great. Coming from an engineer who always has to explain technical topics to laymen/developers/architects.
So I’ve been watching this channel since the beginning and it has inspired me to restore (or more accurately, have restored) a 1950 Trumpy built (!), S&S sloop that was a bit tired, and should be ready for the Maine classic race circuit this summer. But little could I have known that this channel could help look more youthful. I actually bought one those FOREO Bears (not even drunk shopping) and I have to say, they really work. So Leo, don’t be embarrassed to advertise even the strangest items on the channel. At least one person will pop up who is a satisfied customer (although there may be others… I haven’t read the comments.) Ha!
Loved the longer and more technical aspect of this video. These systems have gotten more technical and certainly were not imagined when the boat was first built.
The content and format on this channel just keeps improving like the boat, slowly, purposefully and with class. When they both are polished and complete the videos and the boat itself are gonna be purely amazing.
Your videos get better and better each time! I’ve been hooked for a couple years now. I literally start counting down the days to the next episode the moment the latest episode ends.
As a Canadian Shipbuilder I am absolutely impressed by your team, vessel, and very very well thought systems. Always stop to watch your vids, even the corny commercials
Absolutely my favorite sailing/marine channel. Always a great mix of impeccable talent & craftsmanship, technical expertise and slapstick comedy. Please keep 'em coming!
It's a simple thing, but seeing all the wires just long enough to get the job done and all the "blue boxes" aligned in parade ground fashion really warms my heart. I'm happy that you have a skilled professional doing this work. I once had a hot rod mechanic do similar work on a much smaller boat with results that would make nesting rats proud.
I can’t even describe what being able to see this progress means to me. First video that was recommended to me a year ago was the 4 year montage (EP 100) which made me start from the beginning. Now this has become my favourite thing to watch, twice a month. I love every video you make, but theres a small percentage of my soul that drools over these more techical videos. Love the crew and the vibe, also you guys make sponsor segments that I have no need to skip, so quality in all forms. Keep up the good work and cheers from Finland.
Hey Leo, if you are worried about fire in the electrical locker, there are products that are pressurized tubes containing fire suppression chemicals. You mount them above where fire may break out, and the heat of fire will melt the tube and extinguish the fire. The systems I've had experience with are made by blazecut. They have a stand alone tube only system, and a tube and cylinder system that has a larger capacity, but works on the same principal of automatic detection and dispersion. The tube and cylinder system has the advantage of being able to set off an alarm.
Years ago, when I was foreman at Bristol Marine in Rhode Island, or later when working at Sailors Wharf in St. Pete, FL, In often bored holes through hulls to install new through hull fittings, and drilling each and every one was a bit mind boggling, since I was boring a big hole through a hull, sometimes below the waterline, but knowing once the fitting and valves were properly installed, all would be watertight. I can only imagine, though, how difficult it is for those working on Tally Ho, to bore a hole through the pristine new hull. My accolades to all who are, and have been working on the restoration/reconstruction of a great Lady!
Great video as ever! This series has shown me a side of Americans i hadn't really seen before. Electricity certainly is dangerous. When i was a kid I used to solder together guitar effect pedals to try to make different noises. At the end of one soldering session in my excitement to try the circuit I pushed the live and neutral prongs in with my fingers. I woke up on the other side of my bedroom, my arms felt like they had been hit with a sledgehammer. When I went downstair mum said the electricity had tripped and did i know anything about why it had tripped. I told her I didn't.
My little brother once tried to melt a plastic ruler by wrapping it with garden wire and sticking the ends into an outlet.. Nothing happened to him (nor the ruler), the breakers weren't happy though.
I’ve been saying that about hose clamps for years. I was a cooling system tech for many years and never saw a properly installed hose clamp fail. There’s just no need for double clamps if they’re installed correctly and inspected every year.
The quality of the build from day one is so impressive and all the systems are integrated so well that one might forget that this is a hand built vessel with the trusty and mostly sustainable trees of the world making up the majority of the infrastructure and then all the modern systems absorbed seamlessly into the build that on scale easily mimics all the technical asthetics of today's "super yachts". I would suggest that Tally Ho is far superior in craftsmanship and one can imagine the feel of her beating heart the first time she takes the wind. With Leo's vision and all the work from all the craftsman who have been involved through various stages of her revival, every episode reveals her coming back to life, one screw, piece of wood or another bung hole . Now I can turn my weather worn old face into the youthful glow to mimick patricks beautiful complexion, all due to today's episode. 😂😂😂
I really enjoy the technical stuff. I am a retired engineer as well, so how it works is as interesting as how it looks. However, as a woodworker, how it looks is also important ... and it looks amazing. Really great work all around! It's hard to wait two weeks for the next installment. As to the ads, I usually skip through them, but your acting team makes them worth sitting through, kind of like watching Superbowl halftime commercials.
The second on the companion deckhouse was the best on the best YT add I have seen so far. These are adds one can really watch. Everything else is just shut down, walk away or put on quiet.
Even the bloopers or the way you make the advertisement all the flow in the team. In my opinion despite whoever likes some content or other, I like the fact that whatever you mention about this project it's so interesting. Everything you guys make turns into gold! I ve been following you guys for long time and it's been amazing! Please continue and do as you feel!
This was one of the best explained boat systems videos which I have seen. You have a good team working on the boat, all bringing specialist skills. It must be a fun environment to work in.
The more details the better! I’m impressed at all the details in the designs and the ability to describe it all in layman’s language so we can understand it. Keep it up!
ive been watching for quite a while and look forward to every new posting! these videos are gold! i have been rehabilitating from a stroke since march 4,2021 and have loved all the episodes! this one is quite good leo! you are very talented at execution of complex systems as well as explaining those complex systems! bravo an rock on! as my mobility improves i am committed to visiting you ! - rob weeks!
@mikewright9666 thank you, my progress has been slow but good! I anticipate recovery and mobility to enable a visit to tally ho when she gets in the water!
Love the videos. The latest one circled back to an interesting technical diversion that is happening within the sailing community. On one side, we are seeing the evolution of foiling raceboats that tear along at multiples of the apparent wind; on the other, we see the use of wind power to create electricity creating the waterborne equivalent of a hybrid car in a rebuilt classic yacht. I've been following your series from the start because I love to see the craftsmanship in constructing Tally Ho (and stand in perpetual awe of Leo and the crew building the boat) and I am inspired to do what I can with my own fibreglass sailboat. Brilliant! Keep up the good work!
You guys do a tremendous nice job. My compliments. A review on your toilet dump system . It looks good but those Y valves will act up eventually. My 2 cents, make it simpler. Dump the toilet waist via de top of the tank. Dump the tank straight true hull by gravity. With a valve on the bottom of the tank you make the tank a tank. A second hole, stand pipe and cap on the top for emptying the tank at the dock. Install a large filter in between the vent line for obvious reasons. If your toilet hose to the tank is long install a siphon, this to relieve the toilet form back filling. Less valves less trouble. If your tank dump is above the water use a waist pump.
you could go into twice the technical details and I wouldn't complain one bit. though having redone much of more than one boat's electrical systems before, I can really appreciate just how much work has went into yours. To say I'm impressed is an understatement.
What a talent pool you have together. I hope you start making a list of spare parts that should be onboard as you travel. The more complexity the more chances of breakdown. Everything fails sooner or later. Great vid, Lee
It makes a difference when you go to work everyday and work on a project that will be very special when finished. It enables people to have pride in their work.
There's an unlimited number of sailing channels which gloss over some or all of the detail, so it's a real bonus that one of the few which does routinely go there, goes there so lucidly and comprehensively (and comprehensibly). Kudos!
Love the way your team cuts up and has a bit of fun. That work comes through as enjoyable, but it’s still work! Maybe an update off of that really cool “master flowchart” you showed a while back? It’s cool to see things turning from red to green!
Congrats on your choice for the electrical attention to detail. Craftsmanship is not only making the system work correctly, but to do so such that trouble shooting that eventual day down the road when something does go wrong, it'll be easy and systematic to diagnose. Also congrats for the amount of redundancy in cross connections of systems. Battery/Motor/Generator/Engine full circle duplication is giving you many advantages for success.
For me, those moments of anxiety are what keeps my job interesting. It's not necessarily a bad thing. It a spurs you to double check what you are doing.
That electrical system looks amazing. The only thing that gives pause is the inverters right above the Diesel engine. I don't see it as an immediate uh-oh, but the thermal cycles that those inverters are going to face being so close to the engine would make me worry. Also, I look forward to the ads on this channel now. You guys look like you have so much fun with them.
Leo, I really enjoyed your detailed explanation of the electrical system. It looks like you will be set up for any contingency. I’m impressed with how you are managing to blend state of the art technology with the finest wood craftsmanship to create what will be one of the most beautiful wood sailing ships to grace the oceans.
Important systems entered or will enter the boat. It'd be wise to START writing "guides" to those while expert installers are around: how to procedures, troubleshooting lists, fast fixes, scheduled maintenance, emergency instructions, etc. Eventually, cover: pre-sail check list, inventory, engine guide, generator guide, electricity plan/guide, electronics plan/guide, hidraulics... also: "flood" action plan, "colision" action plan, "fire" action plan, "pan pan" action plan, " mayday" action plan, " abandon ship" drill, etc. Keep it brief, a column with relevant issue/part/problem, a second one sending you to a page in a manufacturer manual, instructions or procedures you wrote, plans, drawings, printed lists, check lists, or anything you have on board that may save you time (and more) when things go wrong.
Leo, for those of us far from the sea the notion of a wooden sailing boat is fairly romantic Videos such as this make real all of all the messy, real-world challenges that will exist for you at sea. I was never much of a fan of power systems during my studies (though I did prevent a fellow student from electrocuting himself!), but I admire the explanation of the system design. Bonus points for the great illustrations.
Of course love the content as always. Just technical enough for me at least! The title worried me! Especially after the recent incident on a certain car rebuilding channel. Glad to see no accidents. Looking at that drain pipe for the head, unless you have a macerator (maybe the pump itself?), that drain pipe might well want to be an extra half an inch wider. I think we've all known someone who made a log as wide or wider than that. 🤭🤫I guess at least there's not much pipe to snake out, eh? 🤔 Cheers!
I loved it Leo, thanks so much!! The sponsored bit was really well done too, genuinely hilarious. I work with electrical and cooling systems at work and the work you guys are doing is absolutely beautiful, the access and the flexibility and the layout seems completely top-notch, I'm so impressed.
So many details are involved to create a modern and functional sail boat! It's shaping up to have all the modern amenities for a proper sailing experience. Cheers!
Great video! All the systems work is truly first class in every respect! I'm a surveyor and ABYC technician and I must say it's rare to see that level of workmanship in systems today, even in new boats.
I really appreciate all the failsafes and redundancies that you've built in. Your sailing should be a wonderful experience knowing that you'll have all your problems generally taken care of. We'll done and we'll thought out.
HEY LEO, what a fantastic project. It is so amazing that communities around the world are pouring in their resources to save Tally Ho. Because of their generosity, Tally Ho has been provided with a project leader, a team of skilful shipwrights and some fantastic equipment to ensure she is restored in full, having being constructed using heritage techniques.
Loved the video! Your diagrams are wonderful - I'm hoping there will be a book created about this project and look forward to seeing all the various illustrations you've produced gathered together. Also, can vector files of the ships drawing be had? Would make outstanding wall art!
Without doubt, the only time I will watch integrated ads are when the Sampson crew does them! LOL You guys are like web advertising gold. It's amazing to watch how traditional - old school craftsmanship and wood working is being married up with current marine tech on Tally Ho. Super impressive and fascinating to watch. This is definitely a cool video for all of us techies, nerds, DIYers and gear heads. Bravo.
Ok Leo, a lot of that went over my head, but that`s not hard to do, I will say one thing about this whole electrical system, it looks expensive for sure, with many safeties built into it, what an impressive system, and it sure looks like you have the right people involved, this boat is basically self sustainable on shore or out to sea, what more could you ask for, love what you guys do Leo, what an epic boat this will be.
You are right , i reckon at least $20,000 plus installation ! but unreal , 10 kva capacity in the middle of the ocean , wow ! Which brings me to another question , why so much available power for the 230vac and the 120vac ? , are they having a washing machine , drier and electric oven and maybe hotwater heater all electric powered ?
Love to see the systems come together and it was perfect for me as it is one area I know a bit about. In that vein I think it’s a mistake to put in the 12v ‘buffer’ battery into the 12v system. IMHO it is going to be the main trouble you have with the system as a whole and be the thing that takes down your 12v system instead of being a backup. As you have it installed it is probably going to be in float or over charged for all its life. In which case, over charged and over heated it is going to be venting and losing electrolyte and will have to be inspected very regularly for electrolyte levels. If you have put in a ‘low maintenance’ battery then it will have a very short life. The excellent Victron dc to dc converters are extremely reliable and cheap enough to carry a spare in the case of a failure. You can trust them far more than a lead acid battery, installed with very little ventilation and possibly over charged. May as well take it out now as I’m six or twelve months it will be gone anyway after repeated problems. Everything else electrical is really top notch and will be 100% reliable and beautifully installed, don’t spoil it with a ‘backup’ system that will just case problems.
Hi Leo, and 'partners in crime', a very interesting video. The shipbuilding, cabinetry, and varied woodworking projects, I greatly respect and admire, but am familiar with. As for this video and the other systems, I have seen them being installed but paid little attention to them. After all, being a simple wood butcher, most of these things were being done by others. Getting a dedicated look gives me a greater appreciation for the other essential skills involved and maybe a bit of remorse for not having paid closer attention. Great video, one I'll take another look at later. To the crew, "once again, thanks for the grins".
I love the technical stuff, keep it coming! I used to work for a naval architect, doing mostly systems design work on superyachts. I find this stuff very interesting :-D
Hi Leo, I commented on one of your earlier videos about the exhaust. Ill say it again. You need to get a dry exhaust riser made. Your engine is below waterline but you have plenty of height in the engine room to raise the spill over height. Relying on a siphon loop when you don't have to is a sure fire way to flood your engine or sink your boat! You also have the spill over point right at the transom, as far way from the engine as possible, after the wet muffler creating an undue amount of back pressure. You need to consider the effects of gravity.....
I know Tally ho is a traditional vessel, but it would be worth having a flap on the exhaust outlet to further help stop water back flooding the system. Id also ditch that bronze/brass siphon loop as it going to have warm water passing through it straight into a stainless mixer.The mixer will last 5 mins.
Interesting - all I know is that this system was approved by Halyard Marine, who helped design it, and Ocean Systems, who have many years of experience installing marine engines. Without knowing your credentials (no offence) it's difficult to know if this is worth looking into. By the way, we don't have much engine room height because the cockpit is yet to go in. I may not see any other comments but you can email info@sampsonboat.co.uk - thanks.
Excellent video. You might want to seal your electrical panel's with some plexiglass. Always good to be able to keep an eye on what is going on there. If a little moisture gets in there, corrosion will cause trouble in no time.
Living in land-locked Atlanta and not a boat builder, I have watched this series from the beginning and my anxiety level reaches its max whenever a through hole is drilled in the boat. I get the shear terror of getting it wrong so hats off to you all for being brave enough to drill those holes!
Wonderful passionate team. And with your leadership, the heritage boat is transitioning into a modern marine vessel. Great stuff to watch; compelling viewing. With all the do's and dont', the when's and why's, it appears an Operations and Maintenance Manual must be produced so everyone on board knows exactly what to do. Leo, you should consider a BIM model LOD500 which would take managing the boat to the next level

I wish her always good winds and always enough water under the keel.
Well said - agree 100%. This is my fave channel too and I don't know squat about boats or sailing.
Leo has been serious throughout the entire Tally Ho project, no corners have been cut. However he does have a great sense of humor and enjoys a good hearted laugh! Hats off to Leo and the entire Tally Ho crew.
Or, they're like Doug Jackson, and just beg for money while doing incredibly slapdash and dangerous things. Leo and his crew are the polar opposite and a joy to watch.

Tally Ho is a 21st century, cutting edge vessel from stem to stern!
Spot on Duncan.
Leo ONLY does quality 👌
Amen brother you are spot on
Hear hear
Still dont understand why would you not go with electrical pump for the toilet.
Leo should publish a book of his illustrations over the years on this project. I also found myself laughing out loud several times during this video. So informative and yet so entertaining.
Weekend is always great when there is a new Sampson Boat Co video
You can tell Leo and the crew have a great sense of humor/humour and to feature it in the ads gives us that much better sense of their toil and trouble and loves.
It's good to see everyone is having fun too! One of the main things I like from this channel is the high standard of quality that Leo sets for every part of the boat. And secondly, that he doesn't try to do everything by himself but instead is able to source experts and craftsman to realize it.
I think Albert Stranges mind would be blown if he knew all these technological systems would one day be in one of his boat designs 113years later. Impressive team
Until he had some experience of salt water and electrics.
The wiring, so far, is SUPER ELEGANT and well laid out. My compliments to whoever is installing all wiring. For sailboats, this is crucial so you can quickly follow things when you have trouble. Nicely done!
Augmenting Leo's already impressive list of skills is his ability to illustrate and lucidly explain the various systems onboard his vessel.
Tally ho is becoming a boat that is combining the best of old and new technology. It really takes someone with Leos experience to put something like this together It is not just the quality of the build that makes this special, it is knowing what you need in a boat to make it a comfortable boat to cross an ocean. A lot of boats may be built with perfect craftsman ship but they may also hardly ever leave port. I don't believe Tally ho has a history of being one of those boats and Leo has never built her as a floating museum piece. But instead he is building a cruising boat as good as the best out there. This combined with Tally Ho history makes it something special.
The design/engineering eps where Leo puts everything down in pencil sketches are easily my favs from the whole project.
Leo, don’t worry about getting too technical. I simply love it when it goes all techy!!
As an engineer, I love when you go into the technical details, but I do understand that others might not be so enthused.
A lot of it is beyond me… but I appreciate it. I’m learning a lot. One of which is that I should never attempt that lol. Two, it makes sense in my brain how it all goes together like a puzzle. I really appreciate that.
As a non-engineer I found Leos' drawings very helpful - it's amazing how a moveable arrow or red X make the mass of wiring understandable
When I started my apprenticeship as an electrical engineer many many years ago, I got told by a tutor that dc made your hair stand on end and smoke, ac made it wavy and curly and smoke more. 😂
Agreed. I'm here for the details
As a person, I like some details myself. Very enthused I am!
Like any great sailor, he immerses himself into every detail of his vessel, he has knowledge of all of them, so that he can quickly assess issues, and track down their causes. He is involved in the design and layout process, and lets the experts deal with the higher technical details. He is an amazing young leader, and he has been so from the get go. Love watching their progress, and growth as humans and craftspeople. As a fellow lowly house carpenter, I am always infinitely impressed!!
Dear CalamityBrainBand
👍👏👌 Very well said, very well indeed. Exactly my thoughts too. Therefore I wanted to comment similar, but fortunately you already did all the writing work. 😁 ;-)
Best regards, luck and health in particular.
Yeah, no. Dude seems like a prick to me.
Good summation. Most sailors in time, become Jacks of all trades, because they have to be able to fix a boat, sometimes alone at sea, in less than ideal conditions without a warehouse of spare parts and tools on hand. Knowing your vessel, and the way it functions back-to-front, makes you a good and safe sailor that can perform repairs, and perform emergency actions when needed.
Yours is the only channel I watch the in-video adds, truly remarkable talent. Any advertiser is lucky to have a spot with your team
Yeah, could imagine the conversations between the companies and their advertisement consultants after they saw these?
"We pay you millions and these boat builders give us a better result"
Joe really seems to be the sort of person you call when you want everything done right. The knowledge and attention he puts into the systems is very reassuring.
I love the fact that your team makes the videos for your sponsor instead of some canned advert.
Agreed, and it's obvious they have fun doing them. I'd love to see how many bloopers they've had.
Still, what a ridiculous product they advertised this time-.
@@More_Row Still, it made it much easier to lampoon.
And I'm never tempted to skip over them!
So much redundancy, so much neatness, so much "ship shape" in everything on and in Tally Ho, she really is and will be a thing of beauty! Well done guys, can't wait to see the rest of the fit out. Cheers👍
I swear Leo - there is NO ONE from your team accross all the years you rebuild Tally Ho, that i do not like :D
Everyone is so symphathetic, so energized, so up to teamwork and filled with joy of doing something great together that I desire to work with you all
I have never seen anyone who can put a legal disclaimer as elegantly as you, Leo 👍🏻
Most channels I skip the ads, but I like watching Leo and the crew put on a great performance.
That's funny because I skipped the ad to see what was happening this episode, I then went back and watched the ad, lol!
As a commercial Electrician, I had to make some tight bends in heavy cables (200 to 500 MCM). I made up a couple of thick wall aluminum pipes, one inch dia and 3/4 inch, threaded on one end and with a coupling and a 'smooth bore' bushing. If you can't find a smooth bore, you can machine the threads out of a regular one. If you cut the cable to length before bending, you will have to re-trim the now staggered inner wires, but pre-cutting makes for easier access to the bend site. Since I had access to several lathes, I knurled the end of each pipe to give a better grip, since dielectric grease seems to find it's way onto every tool. They made nice, neat 90 degree bends in the stiffest of cables...👍
I like the redundancies built into the electric systems. At sea, what ever can go wrong will eventually go wrong and it's those multiple backup systems that will get you to a safe port. I especially like the dedicated engine cranking battery with the ability to employ the house battery. Many years ago I taught that type of setup and installed it in several sailboats myself.
I worry that the crew working on Arabella are not as experienced as I’d hope. They have wires hanging out while out on the water and their systems were mostly non-operational prior to the hastened launch date. Anyway, not the page to raise concerns, but Leo and team are doing everything top notch! THIS is the way to build a boat folks, here on Leo’s Boat World Channel. 😊
The horrific ad sketches are now an integral part of this channel's value.
I rather enjoy their fresh take on them... plus, it's good income that makes these super quality videos possible. 😊
Hurray for integrated ad's, team should be hired as ad team.
I think they do a hilarious job of these, and still promote their sponsors.
I had to look this one up because I thought he was surely advertising a sex toy.
I gladly watched it.
Hey Leo, I’ve watched every video so far!
I’m an electrician in the UK and moving into prosumer AC/DC systems domestically and commercially. This is great to see how your implementing different systems like we do in canal boats here!
Just a thought I know your spark mentioned RCBO’s for your AC side circuits feeding the boat but we are moving now into AFDD’s which are an over current device, RCD device and an Arc detection device rolled into one. While there more expensive they are now coming into our industry in certain areas… with the amount of wood in your boat I’d maybe consider fitting these which will trip and indicate with an led if an Arc is detected before it becomes something much worse that an RCBO or MCB might not even detect.
Sorry if someone’s already mentioned this haven’t made it through all the comments 😂
All the best with the build. Look forward to seeing Tally Ho on the water!
The way Leo breaks down the electrical system was great. Coming from an engineer who always has to explain technical topics to laymen/developers/architects.
So I’ve been watching this channel since the beginning and it has inspired me to restore (or more accurately, have restored) a 1950 Trumpy built (!), S&S sloop that was a bit tired, and should be ready for the Maine classic race circuit this summer. But little could I have known that this channel could help look more youthful. I actually bought one those FOREO Bears (not even drunk shopping) and I have to say, they really work. So Leo, don’t be embarrassed to advertise even the strangest items on the channel. At least one person will pop up who is a satisfied customer (although there may be others… I haven’t read the comments.) Ha!
Loved the longer and more technical aspect of this video. These systems have gotten more technical and certainly were not imagined when the boat was first built.
The content and format on this channel just keeps improving like the boat, slowly, purposefully and with class. When they both are polished and complete the videos and the boat itself are gonna be purely amazing.
I will 100% continue to fully watch your sponsor sections if you keep doing them like this. Boat is coming along nicely, too!
Your videos get better and better each time! I’ve been hooked for a couple years now. I literally start counting down the days to the next episode the moment the latest episode ends.
As a Canadian Shipbuilder I am absolutely impressed by your team, vessel, and very very well thought systems. Always stop to watch your vids, even the corny commercials
Absolutely my favorite sailing/marine channel. Always a great mix of impeccable talent & craftsmanship, technical expertise and slapstick comedy. Please keep 'em coming!
It's a simple thing, but seeing all the wires just long enough to get the job done and all the "blue boxes" aligned in parade ground fashion really warms my heart. I'm happy that you have a skilled professional doing this work. I once had a hot rod mechanic do similar work on a much smaller boat with results that would make nesting rats proud.
I can’t even describe what being able to see this progress means to me. First video that was recommended to me a year ago was the 4 year montage (EP 100) which made me start from the beginning. Now this has become my favourite thing to watch, twice a month. I love every video you make, but theres a small percentage of my soul that drools over these more techical videos.
Love the crew and the vibe, also you guys make sponsor segments that I have no need to skip, so quality in all forms. Keep up the good work and cheers from Finland.
Hey Leo, if you are worried about fire in the electrical locker, there are products that are pressurized tubes containing fire suppression chemicals. You mount them above where fire may break out, and the heat of fire will melt the tube and extinguish the fire. The systems I've had experience with are made by blazecut. They have a stand alone tube only system, and a tube and cylinder system that has a larger capacity, but works on the same principal of automatic detection and dispersion. The tube and cylinder system has the advantage of being able to set off an alarm.
Years ago, when I was foreman at Bristol Marine in Rhode Island, or later when working at Sailors Wharf in St. Pete, FL, In often bored holes through hulls to install new through hull fittings, and drilling each and every one was a bit mind boggling, since I was boring a big hole through a hull, sometimes below the waterline, but knowing once the fitting and valves were properly installed, all would be watertight. I can only imagine, though, how difficult it is for those working on Tally Ho, to bore a hole through the pristine new hull. My accolades to all who are, and have been working on the restoration/reconstruction of a great Lady!
Great video as ever! This series has shown me a side of Americans i hadn't really seen before.
Electricity certainly is dangerous.
When i was a kid I used to solder together guitar effect pedals to try to make different noises. At the end of one soldering session in my excitement to try the circuit I pushed the live and neutral prongs in with my fingers. I woke up on the other side of my bedroom, my arms felt like they had been hit with a sledgehammer.
When I went downstair mum said the electricity had tripped and did i know anything about why it had tripped. I told her I didn't.
My little brother once tried to melt a plastic ruler by wrapping it with garden wire and sticking the ends into an outlet.. Nothing happened to him (nor the ruler), the breakers weren't happy though.
It's nice to see the fun and family you guys have become.
The quality of this build is going to win trophies before it even hits water. It's like an opiate for those who care.
I’ve been saying that about hose clamps for years. I was a cooling system tech for many years and never saw a properly installed hose clamp fail. There’s just no need for double clamps if they’re installed correctly and inspected every year.
The quality of the build from day one is so impressive and all the systems are integrated so well that one might forget that this is a hand built vessel with the trusty and mostly sustainable trees of the world making up the majority of the infrastructure and then all the modern systems absorbed seamlessly into the build that on scale easily mimics all the technical asthetics of today's "super yachts". I would suggest that Tally Ho is far superior in craftsmanship and one can imagine the feel of her beating heart the first time she takes the wind.
With Leo's vision and all the work from all the craftsman who have been involved through various stages of her revival, every episode reveals her coming back to life, one screw, piece of wood or another bung hole . Now I can turn my weather worn old face into the youthful glow to mimick patricks beautiful complexion, all due to today's episode. 😂😂😂
I really enjoy the technical stuff. I am a retired engineer as well, so how it works is as interesting as how it looks. However, as a woodworker, how it looks is also important ... and it looks amazing. Really great work all around! It's hard to wait two weeks for the next installment.
As to the ads, I usually skip through them, but your acting team makes them worth sitting through, kind of like watching Superbowl halftime commercials.
The second on the companion deckhouse was the best on the best YT add I have seen so far. These are adds one can really watch. Everything else is just shut down, walk away or put on quiet.
Even the bloopers or the way you make the advertisement all the flow in the team. In my opinion despite whoever likes some content or other, I like the fact that whatever you mention about this project it's so interesting. Everything you guys make turns into gold! I ve been following you guys for long time and it's been amazing! Please continue and do as you feel!
6:30 syncing action and tool noises to the music, like the maestro we’ve all come to know and love.
This was one of the best explained boat systems videos which I have seen. You have a good team working on the boat, all bringing specialist skills. It must be a fun environment to work in.
Why do I now know so much about sailboat mechanical systems. Best show on RUclips.
The more details the better! I’m impressed at all the details in the designs and the ability to describe it all in layman’s language so we can understand it. Keep it up!
Really appreciate the level of technical detail and the manner you guys handle the sponsorship. The humor works great.
ive been watching for quite a while and look forward to every new posting! these videos are gold! i have been rehabilitating from a stroke since march 4,2021 and have loved all the episodes! this one is quite good leo! you are very talented at execution of complex systems as well as explaining those complex systems! bravo an rock on! as my mobility improves i am committed to visiting you ! - rob weeks!
Sorry to hear about your stroke Robert, hope you fully recover
@mikewright9666 thank you, my progress has been slow but good! I anticipate recovery and mobility to enable a visit to tally ho when she gets in the water!
Love the videos. The latest one circled back to an interesting technical diversion that is happening within the sailing community. On one side, we are seeing the evolution of foiling raceboats that tear along at multiples of the apparent wind; on the other, we see the use of wind power to create electricity creating the waterborne equivalent of a hybrid car in a rebuilt classic yacht. I've been following your series from the start because I love to see the craftsmanship in constructing Tally Ho (and stand in perpetual awe of Leo and the crew building the boat) and I am inspired to do what I can with my own fibreglass sailboat. Brilliant! Keep up the good work!
I loved the amount of detail! Every time you do get into the details, I'm reminded of how great an artist you are with your illustrations!
You guys do a tremendous nice job. My compliments.
A review on your toilet dump system . It looks good but those Y valves will act up eventually.
My 2 cents, make it simpler. Dump the toilet waist via de top of the tank. Dump the tank straight true hull by gravity.
With a valve on the bottom of the tank you make the tank a tank. A second hole, stand pipe and cap on the top for emptying the tank at the dock. Install a large filter in between the vent line for obvious reasons.
If your toilet hose to the tank is long install a siphon, this to relieve the toilet form back filling.
Less valves less trouble. If your tank dump is above the water use a waist pump.
Love all of the content. Never too technical, and you explain it well.
you could go into twice the technical details and I wouldn't complain one bit. though having redone much of more than one boat's electrical systems before, I can really appreciate just how much work has went into yours. To say I'm impressed is an understatement.
What a talent pool you have together. I hope you start making a list of spare parts that should be onboard as you travel. The more complexity the more chances of breakdown. Everything fails sooner or later.
Great vid,
Lee
Albert Strange would NEVER believe what you have hidden under the stairs!!! 😂 clean install, well done
You seem to have such an amazing team. They all seem really genuine and happy. ;-)
It makes a difference when you go to work everyday and work on a project that will be very special when finished. It enables people to have pride in their work.
Leo, these are some of the best explanations I’ve ever seen, especially of how head plumbing works! Love the movable arrows 🔝 notch.
Brilliant video Leo! The technical explanation was superb with just the right amount of lighthearted banter.👍👍👍
There's an unlimited number of sailing channels which gloss over some or all of the detail, so it's a real bonus that one of the few which does routinely go there, goes there so lucidly and comprehensively (and comprehensibly). Kudos!
Yes - I think the finer details are really interesting.
Love the way your team cuts up and has a bit of fun. That work comes through as enjoyable, but it’s still work!
Maybe an update off of that really cool “master flowchart” you showed a while back? It’s cool to see things turning from red to green!
Congrats on your choice for the electrical attention to detail. Craftsmanship is not only making the system work correctly, but to do so such that trouble shooting that eventual day down the road when something does go wrong, it'll be easy and systematic to diagnose. Also congrats for the amount of redundancy in cross connections of systems. Battery/Motor/Generator/Engine full circle duplication is giving you many advantages for success.
The only in-video ads I don't skip... hysterical!
Nice to see that even professionals can get anxious about peculiar stages of the build. Loved the jokes as always😂
For me, those moments of anxiety are what keeps my job interesting. It's not necessarily a bad thing. It a spurs you to double check what you are doing.
Some things not even the most skilled of us can fix! That'll always be scary
NO!!! Not there 😂😂😂
That electrical system looks amazing. The only thing that gives pause is the inverters right above the Diesel engine. I don't see it as an immediate uh-oh, but the thermal cycles that those inverters are going to face being so close to the engine would make me worry.
Also, I look forward to the ads on this channel now. You guys look like you have so much fun with them.
Leo, I really enjoyed your detailed explanation of the electrical system. It looks like you will be set up for any contingency. I’m impressed with how you are managing to blend state of the art technology with the finest wood craftsmanship to create what will be one of the most beautiful wood sailing ships to grace the oceans.
Important systems entered or will enter the boat. It'd be wise to START writing "guides" to those while expert installers are around: how to procedures, troubleshooting lists, fast fixes, scheduled maintenance, emergency instructions, etc.
Eventually, cover: pre-sail check list, inventory, engine guide, generator guide, electricity plan/guide, electronics plan/guide, hidraulics... also: "flood" action plan, "colision" action plan, "fire" action plan, "pan pan" action plan, " mayday" action plan, " abandon ship" drill, etc.
Keep it brief, a column with relevant issue/part/problem, a second one sending you to a page in a manufacturer manual, instructions or procedures you wrote, plans, drawings, printed lists, check lists, or anything you have on board that may save you time (and more) when things go wrong.
Leo, for those of us far from the sea the notion of a wooden sailing boat is fairly romantic Videos such as this make real all of all the messy, real-world challenges that will exist for you at sea. I was never much of a fan of power systems during my studies (though I did prevent a fellow student from electrocuting himself!), but I admire the explanation of the system design. Bonus points for the great illustrations.
Of course love the content as always. Just technical enough for me at least! The title worried me! Especially after the recent incident on a certain car rebuilding channel. Glad to see no accidents. Looking at that drain pipe for the head, unless you have a macerator (maybe the pump itself?), that drain pipe might well want to be an extra half an inch wider. I think we've all known someone who made a log as wide or wider than that. 🤭🤫I guess at least there's not much pipe to snake out, eh? 🤔 Cheers!
Great job Leo !! Your boat is as close to perfection as anyone can get!
Awesome video. I am retired from the Marine service and install business. It’s nice to see the latest equipment being used today! Thanks Leo! 👍👍👍
I loved it Leo, thanks so much!! The sponsored bit was really well done too, genuinely hilarious. I work with electrical and cooling systems at work and the work you guys are doing is absolutely beautiful, the access and the flexibility and the layout seems completely top-notch, I'm so impressed.
So many details are involved to create a modern and functional sail boat! It's shaping up to have all the modern amenities for a proper sailing experience. Cheers!
Finally on to MY favorite part of the project. :)
Love you guys!
Great video! All the systems work is truly first class in every respect! I'm a surveyor and ABYC technician and I must say it's rare to see that level of workmanship in systems today, even in new boats.
I really appreciate all the failsafes and redundancies that you've built in. Your sailing should be a wonderful experience knowing that you'll have all your problems generally taken care of. We'll done and we'll thought out.
Being an illustrator for explanatory videos myself I gotta say this is so well explained! :) Leos also got some great sketching skills there
Thanks for throwing the engineers in the crowd a bone once in a while!
HEY LEO, what a fantastic project. It is so amazing that communities around the world are pouring in their resources to save Tally Ho. Because of their generosity, Tally Ho has been provided with a project leader, a team of skilful shipwrights and some fantastic equipment to ensure she is restored in full, having being constructed using heritage techniques.
Loved the video! Your diagrams are wonderful - I'm hoping there will be a book created about this project and look forward to seeing all the various illustrations you've produced gathered together. Also, can vector files of the ships drawing be had? Would make outstanding wall art!
I, for one, do appreciate the technical descriptions of the construction. Thanks for including them in the mix.
Without doubt, the only time I will watch integrated ads are when the Sampson crew does them! LOL You guys are like web advertising gold.
It's amazing to watch how traditional - old school craftsmanship and wood working is being married up with current marine tech on Tally Ho. Super impressive and fascinating to watch. This is definitely a cool video for all of us techies, nerds, DIYers and gear heads. Bravo.
It was a great video, really enjoyed the content and the humor. Best to you all.
👍Thumbs up for technical detail!
Ok Leo, a lot of that went over my head, but that`s not hard to do, I will say one thing about this whole electrical system, it looks expensive for sure, with many safeties built into it, what an impressive system, and it sure looks like you have the right people involved, this boat is basically self sustainable on shore or out to sea, what more could you ask for, love what you guys do Leo, what an epic boat this will be.
You are right , i reckon at least $20,000 plus installation ! but unreal , 10 kva capacity in the middle of the ocean , wow ! Which brings me to another question , why so much available power for the 230vac and the 120vac ? , are they having a washing machine , drier and electric oven and maybe hotwater heater all electric powered ?
Love to see the systems come together and it was perfect for me as it is one area I know a bit about.
In that vein I think it’s a mistake to put in the 12v ‘buffer’ battery into the 12v system. IMHO it is going to be the main trouble you have with the system as a whole and be the thing that takes down your 12v system instead of being a backup.
As you have it installed it is probably going to be in float or over charged for all its life. In which case, over charged and over heated it is going to be venting and losing electrolyte and will have to be inspected very regularly for electrolyte levels. If you have put in a ‘low maintenance’ battery then it will have a very short life.
The excellent Victron dc to dc converters are extremely reliable and cheap enough to carry a spare in the case of a failure. You can trust them far more than a lead acid battery, installed with very little ventilation and possibly over charged.
May as well take it out now as I’m six or twelve months it will be gone anyway after repeated problems.
Everything else electrical is really top notch and will be 100% reliable and beautifully installed, don’t spoil it with a ‘backup’ system that will just case problems.
i cant wait to see this masterpiece in the ocean, and actually see all yall's hard work actually in use. Great Job guys!
Hi Leo, and 'partners in crime', a very interesting video. The shipbuilding, cabinetry, and varied woodworking projects, I greatly respect and admire, but am familiar with. As for this video and the other systems, I have seen them being installed but paid little attention to them. After all, being a simple wood butcher, most of these things were being done by others. Getting a dedicated look gives me a greater appreciation for the other essential skills involved and maybe a bit of remorse for not having paid closer attention. Great video, one I'll take another look at later. To the crew, "once again, thanks for the grins".
I love the technical stuff, keep it coming!
I used to work for a naval architect, doing mostly systems design work on superyachts. I find this stuff very interesting :-D
This is a super yacht 😉
@@robswan5765 no, this is a yacht.
It's a really nice yacht, but it's not a superyacht.
Hi Leo, I commented on one of your earlier videos about the exhaust. Ill say it again. You need to get a dry exhaust riser made. Your engine is below waterline but you have plenty of height in the engine room to raise the spill over height. Relying on a siphon loop when you don't have to is a sure fire way to flood your engine or sink your boat! You also have the spill over point right at the transom, as far way from the engine as possible, after the wet muffler creating an undue amount of back pressure. You need to consider the effects of gravity.....
I know Tally ho is a traditional vessel, but it would be worth having a flap on the exhaust outlet to further help stop water back flooding the system. Id also ditch that bronze/brass siphon loop as it going to have warm water passing through it straight into a stainless mixer.The mixer will last 5 mins.
Interesting - all I know is that this system was approved by Halyard Marine, who helped design it, and Ocean Systems, who have many years of experience installing marine engines. Without knowing your credentials (no offence) it's difficult to know if this is worth looking into. By the way, we don't have much engine room height because the cockpit is yet to go in.
I may not see any other comments but you can email info@sampsonboat.co.uk - thanks.
@@SampsonBoatCo ill flick you a quick email
That episode so enjoyable it only seemed to last 15 minutes, congratulations on all aspects, what an incredible team you have put together.
I normally fast forward thru the inserted ads, but always watch yours, they are awesome.
The commercials are awesome
Excellent video. You might want to seal your electrical panel's with some plexiglass. Always good to be able to keep an eye on what is going on there. If a little moisture gets in there, corrosion will cause trouble in no time.
Living in land-locked Atlanta and not a boat builder, I have watched this series from the beginning and my anxiety level reaches its max whenever a through hole is drilled in the boat. I get the shear terror of getting it wrong so hats off to you all for being brave enough to drill those holes!
Wonderful passionate team. And with your leadership, the heritage boat is transitioning into a modern marine vessel. Great stuff to watch; compelling viewing.
With all the do's and dont', the when's and why's, it appears an Operations and Maintenance Manual must be produced so everyone on board knows exactly what to do.
Leo, you should consider a BIM model LOD500 which would take managing the boat to the next level
