Vessel | A Newfoundland Wooden Boat Film
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 авг 2024
- From the first instances of human inhabitation on the island of Newfoundland, wooden punts and dories have been crucial facilitators to life on The Rock. Those who called this beautifully rugged land home were able to do so as a direct result of hand built wooden watercraft, fashioned from the land and made for the purpose of existing on the sea. This film follows boat builders and people connected to the craft to learn about how this piece of their heritage is continuing in the modern day. Wooden boats anchor people to place. They are both a vessel to take one out on the water, and a vessel for the stories and experiences that define Newfoundland.

My father built several boats in his day. As a Newfoundlander I found this film to be captivating!
Excellent, thanks!
Love passion and hard work = gratitude for life's journey
Absolutely marvellous! Congratulations to Liam Bursey and Bursey Studio associates for producing "Vessel". I love one-lungers. I love history. I love Newfoundland. You ticked all the boxes with "Vessel". Well done! Congratulations!
Thank you very much for your kind words!
What a wonderful video! What wonderful people, doing their best to share masterful skills and memories. Wooden boats, once you’ve had one, nothing else is quite the same.
Dallas Texas is a long way from Newfoundland, but I love wooden boats all the same.
My Grandfather gave me my first boat when I was a boy. A little Wagemaker runabout, 16 feet, made by the Seafarer Cabinet co as I recall. How I loved and pampered that beautiful little boat. One night we were caught by a sudden storm. The water became so high, so fast, the wind was blowing every which way.
While making our way back to the shore, we came upon a big, lazy, sneaky, old tree trunk, that chose to punch a wicked hole, so big, in her side, but I didn’t know that just yet. It was a horrifying sound, wood being twisted and snapped. It was hard at first to understand what exactly had happened, but we were pretty sure it was bad. What we did know though, was that in a very short while, there was a great amount of water where it shouldn’t have been. We chose to get out while the getting was still good. We cinched up our life jackets, and just stepped out into the water. It was a cold rough time. We made it to shore after about two hours.
I never saw my beautiful little boat again.
An update; here is a site about the manufacturer Wagemaker.
I have no idea where I got the Seafarer part, I’m old.
The one I had doesn’t quite match up with any of the boats shown. Closest is the No.4 Super De Luxe. She was a beauty!
I'm from Nova Scotia but I have always admired the people of Newfoundland and their connection to the sea. This film set my heart ablaze.
Thank you!
It was great to see the homes and harbors, the songs and the sages of Newfoundland. I’ve been a few times with my wife from there. This is such a heartwarming and honest portrayal of people and their culture. Jerome Canning is active in Facebook and is a fine ambassador who knows stuff and does things.
Thanks, I’m glad it resonated with you!
A lovely video.I visited St Johns early this year from Ireland. My son was on a university exchange. It was magical and so beautiful. The people were friendly and welcoming I'm always amazed to hear Irish accents so far from Ireland. This could be Waterford, Ireland yet its Newfoundland. Past immigration has left its mark in culture, language, attitude and boat building. This video captures the spirit of a people in a beautifully telling way.
Were they speaking Gaeilge as many Native speakers from Ireland moved there, or were forced to move there.
I was raised in Botwood, Newfoundland, and my uncle Bruce Hart Had a wooden boat. I called it the putt putt boat. We went on picnics across the bay in his boat. I remember those times very well.
Thank you for sharing this memory.
Excellent! I cherish my memories of Newfoundland ❤
love seeing my home great job bring back memeris
Thank you for a great video. I also grew up with boats & have built dozens. When the sea gets in your blood you just can't stay away from it or stop thinking about it.
Couldn’t agree more, thank you!
Lovely documentary! I did my graduate research in Newfoundland two years ago and this makes me want to go back so bad!
👏
A beautiful film! So well done; a step above everyone else. Editing and colour grading fantastic as is your camera and drone work. Thank you!
Beautiful and emotional movie. Very thoughtful cinematography. Good job! Can't wait to see what you make next.
Amazing production. You can be so proud
Best look at Newfoundland since i read The Shipping News. An enjoyable watch.
I met a Newfoundland woman one time here in Ireland and I couldn’t make out where in Ireland she was from because of her accent, theirs a strong relationship between Ireland and their especially when it comes to wooden boats the west coast of Ireland boats have similar lines especially the Donegal teelin punt except for build ours being clinker but very similar lines, great program 👍🏻🇮🇪
Awesome! This is truly an amazing production.
Not to mention the content. 100% nothing I love more then boats.
I am a New Yorker who had the opportunity to visit Newfoundland many years ago. I found it to be a truly magical place and hope to return there someday. This was a wonderful and enjoyable video.
Love to hear it, thank you!
Thank you for this very well produced video... I am wanting to build a wooden boat and this was really interesting to watch....
Wonderful video quite simply the best l have seen for a long time. Congratulations from Aotearoa New Zealand 👍🇳🇿
What a brilliant video. Am watching from Ireland where I have my happiest memories of childhood in a homemade boat loosely based on a Newfoundland dory. It was made of plywood from Fords boxes because there was a Ford factory in Cork at the time. Glad to see you are holding on to your heritage and moving with the times to make boatbuilding accessible and affordable to all. Love the accompanying music
Excellent video! That was a joy to watch! Thank you
Well done!
Bravo! Throughly enjoyed this.
Beautifully done! 👏
Very touching!
A beautiful story
I like the music in this piece it goes quite well
Best opening scene tribute to a diesel engine ever 🙏
Se are gas engines sir.
Hear hear!
Lovely job done on this documentary. My grandfather built his own boat. Makes me feel like I need to do something with pops old boat before it's too late.
Well done. Thanks
Beautiful!
This wasn't a video it was a movie a wonderful movie and I'm very happy to subscribe I think guys are doing a great thing.
Nice work folks. Watching it from my sailboat on the left coast but half my family is from Bonavista Bay Newfoundland and you brought back some fond memories of goofing around Grandfadders stage and him yelling at us to "Git out of it" when we got into some trouble. Thanks.
01:06 That sound. Chut chut chut chut...
The year 1966 my first visit to mothers childhood home. A place of myth and lore, so I thought.
Now an adult and several brief but priceless visits later, I can articulate the experience.
My six year old self first heard this music standing near precisely here [ google Maps, 47.258640, -53.956398 ] Stepping out of the car in this strange yet familiar place. My ears caught this sound. From my vantage top the hill the sound clear and calling. I did not know what this sound was from but my soul did and it made me look down towards the water. Thru a narrow path between the trees, a flash of white / green and then only the wake. A BOAT, of course! Goosebumps and a shiver, my soul shouting yes, yes this is it!
Home.
Excellent video, got to build a 21 footer for my 6½ acadia. Those plywood kit boats will be waterloged in 3 years, bad idea.
They wont as they will be coated in epoxy for sure. they will also be lighter & stronger than solid timber.
@@calthorp wood has to breathe ,epoxy coated will cause condensation and in turn will be waterlogged.
@@solobushman All modern ply & strip plank boats are sheathed in epoxy. Many hundreds of thousands are in service there is no air pockets & no way for the moisture to get in if it is sealed. therefore never any condensation. go to any modern boat yard & you will see how it is done. I have a boat I built from cheap construction ply in the 1980s. sheathed in epoxy. It is in the water most of the time & it has zero rot in it.
wonderful

I've heard then call one banger or a hit and miss
Well done. Very enjoyable film.
Wow
Thoroughly enjoyed this video, remembering my visit to this amazing and unforgettable place. Is there any chance of posting the contact info for the guys offering the the DIY plywood boat kit?

👏🏻👏🏻
Lovely video!! There is reference to building a traditional boat from a kit with modern material. Is this available?
