    Great job but it did make me feel as though part 2 was infact part 3. keep up the good work.

    Thanks for posting. But it is commentary and information that I like, not awful music.

    Nice project, but it's a shame that you've painted those numbers on the beautiful hull.

    • @steadynumber1

      The numbers are displayed as would have been in RAF service. I was looking forward to seeing the roundels too but apparently that is also 'work in progress.'

    Yeah, where is part 4? Really started to enjoy her come together & then nothing! Come on guys, get the video diaries on the tube.

      simon makinson My thoughts too Simon. I was waiting for the roundels to be restored to the hull & seeing her planing under her own power.

    Painting on red lead and no respirators? Or is that just anti-fouling paint?I haven’t seen any safety equipment used at all.

    I live in Plymouth and have seen the boat. Great job guys. It's nice to see history being kept alive like that.

    Sadly, this boat seems to have been abandoned and now appears to be half submerged on one of the old slipways in Devonport dockyard. (Along with a couple of other abandoned yachts.)

    can't people just erase their old senseless crap.
    These are no restoration videos, these are nerve wrecking nothing telling noise videos. 👎👎👎👎👎
    The best of all is, that you stopped making these kind of sh... 👍

    Was this a crash rescue boat designed to save pilots after water landings?

    • @davidjones332
      @davidjones332 3 года назад +1

      Yes, RAF high-speed rescue launch from WW2. They were known as "Hants & Dorsets", after a well-known bus company because they had a large superstructure that looked as if they had a bus sat on deck. They also carried a pair of enclosed rotating aircraft gun turrets, each mounting 4 x .303 machine guns for AA defence.

    I guess I would want to be the rich old bastard who doesn't do shit but sign checks, while these very useful and capable men do all the work.

    Too Bad bout the stupid noise he placed in it!! Really a diservice to a fine boat! I guess he calls it "music"...rather stupid noise!

    Ah ! makes more sense if Part 3 was part 2 and Part 2 was part 3 !

  • @brianpercival1829
    @brianpercival1829 8 лет назад +1

    Should be an update video before you sell it. Was there a Kick Starter Fund to help finish it?

  • @TwistedMinds69
    @TwistedMinds69 6 лет назад +1

    people who restore these and have every piece of equipment at there disposal are OK. The ones who do the same and improvise methods that end in the same result are amazing, :)
