EPISODE 48 (Pt1).
This episode is a little different from usual - it is part of my recent presentation about the Tally Ho project at the Royal Ocean Racing Club in London. In this part of the talk I explore Tally Ho’s history, beginning with her designer Albert Strange, leading on to her Fastnet Race win of 1927, her collision with a reef in the 1960s, and her transformation from classic yacht to commercial fishing boat and back again.

48(Pt1). History of Tally Ho (RORC presentation)/ Tally Ho EP48(Pt1)
Tallyho has become an icon, a very significant icon to very many.
...The local artist who kept the boat not afloat, but "alive". It is alive.
...With a piece of spirit of all who worked on it, sailed on it, lived on it, loved it, and now again work on it, are inextricably imbedded in it.
Seriously, it is living art, with a collective consortium of spirits of the past, the present, and future.
"thats my boat actually" 3.25 Hilarious
IT is great to revisit this video knowing that she is now in Port Townsend nearing completion. What a history!
Re watching it too, yes it’s a wonderful story
two more years...
In the water now!
Hehe. The funding potential in that room.
LPRNChannel I thought the exact same. 🤣☺️👌🏽
@@ganggreene72 hehe land-ho!
Yes, and I mean that in a positive way. Rebuilding a boat like this costs a lot of money and he’s yet to get to the expensive part! Fitting the boat out, engines, rig, to name just a few aspects, will cost a fortune. Good on him I say. Why not seek support from those who really can afford it, have a keen interest, and in many cases own similar boats. Go Leo.
NO DOUBT :)
I suppose many here do not understand the undertaking of historical preservation especially involving marine activities. It is time intensive and does have a financial risk/reward which translates to dollar cost. I imagine a marine preservation may be as much as 5x the costing compared to historical sites and buildings. Also, bare in mind that as far as we know, it is only one man wearing all the hats. Sure, he has had amazing help in materials, labor, and organization yet still it is one man whereas typically there is an association or syndicate in the lead. Leo has done one helluva job which is not to mention the PR side.
You didnt have to video yourself doing this talk ...but like Leo does...you felt worth in it ...for us your viewers .
And we are forever grateful for your efforts . Three cheers for Leo. Hip hip ..
WELL SAID!!!
@Jim Nickles Huzzah!
thanks :D
This reminds me this line: "I know it sounds absurd, and were it from another man, you'd cry out: "oh, what pitiful stuff" and dismiss it as mere enthusiasm. But with Nelson... you felt your heart glow"
If you decide to duplicate the original interior down to the last detail, definitely save the baby for last or you will never finish the rest. 8^)
haha
Leo, superb job with your presentation. It was nice to hear a more in depth background of Tally Ho.
I have seen a couple posts here asking how much of the original wood will remain when Leo gets done. I expect that it will be a third or less of the original wood and fixtures. To me, no matter how much of the original boat remains, this will always be Tally Ho. The work, love and commitment that Leo and his helpers, physical and monetary, are putting into her will ensure that the soul of this ship will always be the Tally Ho. I strongly recommend that anyone here who is able to give, whether it be $5, $20, $100 or $1000, do so. I have given early in this process and am at a point now that I can give more, so I will. I want to see this grand lady back on the ocean, making wake with Leo at the helm. I also ask everyone here to share these videos to all their friends. The more people who see this project and appreciate what Leo is doing, the better chance of his finishing sooner rather than later. We need more people like Leo out there, and anything we do to help him succeed is a good thing. To all of Leo's fans and friends out there. Fair winds and following seas.
Thank you John, you are too kind!
it is 2024 now and Tally Ho has been launched and looks beyond fabulous...as for those asking how much of her wood is original,,,what l saw was a section of keel remaining amidships, which is all that is technically required to still be "Tally Ho"..new sections of keel were expertly scarfed in fore and aft as required...She is as good as when she was first launched, perhaps even better.. Bravo Zulu Leo and crew..! Go get 'em in 2027 Fastnet...now, about that race... will the vessels competing be old school, heavy displacement like Tally Ho or will they be plastic lightweights..? if so, how is that fair to the older heavier ships ? it would be nice if they kept the race restricted to the heavier displacement vessels..
Way to go Leo! My kind of lecture, sitting there & drinking a brew while someone talks about the amazing rebuild of a vessel that's 110 yrs old. Doesn't get much better than that!!
Saturday is Sampson Boat Co day
An amazing story and the best part is all the connections and photographs you've uncovered . You've taken on stewardship of a part of sailing history and you should be proud .
Love story of this wonderful boat !
Very interesting looking back this video. Looking now in march 2024 more than that : an amazing human and friends adventure around this project. You have to believe that Tally Ho brings a lot of love. Thank you so much, Leo, for your courage, your generosity and your honesty. Tally Ho now is nearly finished, so beautiful. I encourage people to follow the adventure on the site. All the best, sincerely. Philippe
Now that you have sailed her again these two "historical videos really bring it all together ❤️
So nice to see this restoration in our throw away society of today. Well done Leo
Um, saving 40 planks? That's pretty throwaway.
@@dnomyarnostaw Meaning?
@@rcdogmanduh4440 Every bit of the boat is being thrown away excerpt about 40 planks.
@@dnomyarnostaw I think Leo saved the lead keel.
@@pauleohl oh yes. I had forgotten that.
Its rare for metals not to get 'saved', in any item though.
Very educational Leo. Thanks now we know more about her(Tally Ho).
Leo, I have yet to finish the video. To finish any task without a murmur or complaint with a parrot on your shoulder has been truly inspiring to me and my kids and should be to the rest of mankind. Well put. Stay true to your course.
Thanks :)
Excellent! Looking forward to Part Two.
So cool you were invited to present this story. So happy you have so much respect for history.
Thank you for sharing Leo. The history is impressive!
Delightful learning from this vid Leo, thanks for your continued show of passion for Tally-Ho, her indepth history and her rebuilding. Look forward to more in the future. Enjoy the home time with friends and family, stay safe and the best to all !!
Awesome as usual Leo! Thanks for taking us along.
Thank you for posting these Leo.
I really love that your keeping history alive this is a very noble project awesome 👍👍
The history adds so much to the build. Thanx
This video was perfect timing for a study break!
Appreciate the content to help tide us over. Thanks Leo.
Simply outstanding! I suspect your support structuring is on a rising tide. You deserve it.
Leo, this is quite possibly my favorite video you have put out so far. I love the history of the boat.
Excellent presentation, a real pleasure to watch. Have enjoyed following your progress with this restoration.
Well done lad! I may have mentioned, I keep my boat in Brookings Oregon were Tally Ho lived for many years. We are soooo happy you have her now. :)
very nice presentation Leo, it helps us understand exactly what you're going through and what the boat has been through. Good job can't wait for the second half to see your history.
I can see why you saved her. It’s a beautiful boat. I love all the old timber sailing boats and it’s good that people like yourself are trying to preserve them. 👍👍👍👍
Totally interesting. Great presentation. Looking forward to the next installment.
Thanks for showing folks how to care deeply about something Leo - your work is inspirational
Leo,
Thank you for this video. You continue to show just how much this project means to you and the importance of knowing the history of a boat to do a proper restoration. Thank you also for taking us along on this journey. Please enjoy your time in your homeland and looking forward to you returning safely to us in the States.
I still can't get over the purple heart, A real jewel box.. Good work..
super.. been a long wait.. well worth it!
Glad that you are being respected by fellow boat men!
from Oklahoma ♡, truly enjoy your videos
Hi Leo,
This video shows a bit of history and the growth and rounding out of your growth as a fine young man with a great future. You touch a lot more than a boat. Great character. It's positively Bristol. Thanks,
Thanks for sharing this, mate! Cheers!
Great presentation Leo. Lots of information on Tally Ho.
A really good presentation Leo. This project is just getting better and better to follow. I cant wait for the next part.
Leo, you never cease to amaze me. Definitely you're an old soul.

Leo and your crew are doing such fantastic work, as a Boat Builder from the 1960's - some great work and really nice updates en innovations to an old gal. Keep it up... Doug
A well presented potted history of your famous and historic Sailing Yacht Tally Ho,well done i hope you keep a copy of this part one video of her total rebuild .
Great talk you had the room hanging on your every word thanx for posting
Excellent presentation Leo. I, like many many others, have developed deep interest in your story & your boat. I hope to be supporting you & the Tally Ho soon. I'm a finish carpenter, hence my keen interest in your remarkable skill.
Even when Leo isn't working on the boat hands on, he's all hands on working on Tally Ho!
Leo, What a Great Honor to share with fellow Sailors about your endeavor, great presentation. " Bloody Well Done "
Cheers from San Francisco.
Leo ... What a wonderful experience to be able to talk to the RORC about your experiences with Tally Ho and refresh her history to them also. Totally fascinating.
It's a great story and well done to you for keeping her alive 👏
Great video thanks Leo for keeping it alive!
So proud of you Leo, excellent presentation
Outstanding job Leo...well done!
Great video Leo. Looking forward to the next . Cheers
Excellent presentation. You are an inspiration.
Very intresting background info of this project! Nice video
I love what you are doing. God bless you. Sometimes I get tears in my eyes as i watch your videos seeing how much care you take in reviving the old gal. I love sailing but have not been able to do so for over ten years now. Keep those videos coming. I wish I had a fortune I could give you.
you're too kind, thanks!
Superb, Leo, absorbing.
Excellent! The pieces are starting to come together Thanks!.
Jolly good show chap. Keep up the drive and be sure raise interest and funds to complete this important project.
Great stuff Leo! Keep it coming.
Always nice to tag along with you Leo! You lead a very interesting life.
Very interesting, quite an accomplishment for such a young man. Shows what can be done with focus and time! Keep up the good work, can't wait to see her sail again. 😎
very good Leo, love the history and tone of the presentation, truly a project worth the effort. Can't wait to see water under her keel!!
Much Love
Jerrod and Holly
Lovely, clear, articulated speaking. Wall done young man 👍
Agree. Calm, confident, and humorous too.
Leo a big thank you the video was great cant wait for part 2.
Thanks for sharing Leo. Interesting to note the others saw Tally Ho as something worth saving.
Very cool. Fascinating to hear the tale of the boats life.
A good bit of the history would've remained unknown were it not of the videos you've made. I'm grateful you did...make the videos. 😁
Thanks for all the videos. 👍
Fantastic ifo, very well presented!
Hope those club members opened up their checkbooks at the end!
Great presentation. I found myself very interested in the little details. I kept wondering who else would be interested, then I would remember that you are talking to a room of people interested in her (Tally’s) history. I hope these fine boating men and women donated to your extensive cause. Keep it up, Leo!
Bravo! --- transitive verb
: to applaud by shouts of bravo
Thank you and those who have supported your efforts
Wonderful presentation. I learned a lot of new things about Tally Ho's past. The only problem I had was I thought I had been watching for 4-5 minutes and it had been 19 minutes already! As always your spirit and quick-witted humor shone through. Looking forward to a continuation of the presentation.
Thanks Glenda :)
Amazing project and builder or re-builder I should say. Way to go Leo!
Thank you God for people like Leo and others like him, the importance of keeping these old world skills alive and bringing attention to them in such a beautifully videoed and edited way on RUclips is beyond words as well as the superb products resulting from such dedicated peoples labours that are enjoyed on the small screen watched by millions and will be passed forwards to our future generations to enjoy and be inspired by, well done all you who work and have worked at the Sampson Boat Company and other similar restorations, you should be very proud of yourselves!
VERY enjoyable.
well done, sir.
Look at you! 108k subscribers, the RORC, a haircut! ... success doesn’t stop! Good for you!
Very interesting presentation Leo ! The Tally Ho has had an interesting life !...but the best is yet to come ! "That's my boat" !...that was good ...heheh ! Can't wait for the second part ! Take care ! Be safe ! Peace.
Looking forward to part 2 Leo, thank you for sharing. Matt C.
Very informative and interesting, thanks Leo! Hopefully you will be ready for some white Oak in the near future!
Thanks Leo, love the history.
As an Oregonian, I can tell you've spent a lot of time in the Pacific Northwest. You actually pronounce it correctly. Thanks for the video.
you mean it's not pronounced "Irgun" ?
really enjoyed your presentation...
You’ve just added another dimension, well done mate
Congratulation, Leo! What a wonderful opportunity to tell your story to the people at the RORC.
My friend (mid 1970s) Peter Kavanaugh, whom I met in Tehran before the "revolution" was/is a member of the RORC. Looking forward to the second part of your presentation. ⛵️
A really nice story and well told.
love it, thanks for letting us share in this adventure! roger
