EPISODE 139
In this video we make progress all over the boat - the engine-room sole is laid, the diesel-engine exhaust gets installed, and Zeal joins the team again to do some caulking and fair the keel timber.
We start work inside the head, including the glamorous job of trying to position the toilet itself, and we meet Pat Mahon, who starts constructing the deck hatches!
In other news, we watch the Schooner Martha get lifted out of the water, and George finds a creative use for an original keel bolt.

Boatbuilding - deck hatches & more! (EP139)
The old timers who've joined the project this year have been AMAZING. What skill they bring to this inspiring project! What a gift to all of us. My interests are wide but I have to say, this channel is my favorite. It is fun to go back in time and remind myself of all the hard work that has been done, much of it by volunteers who were inspired to travel to Port Townsend to work fulfilling Leo's dream. A big thank you to everyone!
What's crazy to me is we'd never know about their expertise if it weren't for this project. How much talent is tucked into corners of the world we just don't know about as a society as a whole?
> Rather than CAD-CAM this is TAD- GAM: Tracing Actual Designs-Grandpa Aided Manufacturing. What a great project this has become thanks to a $1 purchase.
@@carlwest859 I'm gonna guess that Leo has at least $300,000 of materials and services in Tally Ho by this time.
@@pauleohl I think that's a low estimate. Skilled shipwrights are expensive and teak ain't cheap.
I prefer to think of them as skilled experienced craftsmen, not old timers. I think of old timers as old men panning for gold in western movies. 😊
Those aerial shots of her in the shop showing the deck and all of her top sidelines is absolutely beautiful you guys are doing such a good job
Made me choke up. Just beautiful ❤️ and so much excitement for the future
Idk if you got to attend the open house but I saw them in person and it is insane how perfectly they are laid out. It makes ppl who see it blush... all I gotta say lol
Awesome! Just awesome Leo.
came here to say exactly that!
I said "das niiiice" involuntarily during that shot
It's just a never-ending stream of perfection being shown here. If boats could have halos, this one would.
I Think the halos was in sight when Leo started the Project already, one step at a time.
And Tally H has achieved more than one halos already _/)
I learned how to build a boat from my father who was an old time boat builder in NewEngland . The bronze piece made for finding the center line ? Had I produced a finished product like that for my father he would have had me make it over. A few pointers…
The counter sunk screw holes where much to deep, the screw heads should have been flat heads and then filed down to meet the crown of the half oval filling the entire counter sunk hole. The slots of the screw heads should have both been horizontal when completed. The piece when completed should have been sanded with fine sandpaper to a uniform shine.
Watching the video today I was surprised to see the house being installed with no vertical bolts ,bolting the house down through the deck beams. The way I was thought any structure would have these bolts and to never just use glue no mater what type of glue used or no mater the size of the house.
@@toddabrahamsson1797 good lord dude, its not that big of a deal nor is it your boat
@@toddabrahamsson1797 I think Leo wanted to keep the patina from the 100 year old original keel bolt.
This is literally the best RUclips channel that has ever existed. Nothing in life gives me as much joy as watching this team at work and seeing this wonderful boat brought back to life. Thank you, Leo, & Co.
awesome to see how the crew is expanding, the process has been incredible to watch! this series is both relaxing and satisfying to say the least. we're all rooting for you!
Love to see Leo & Co getting support from the RUclips chiefs
🙄
Hi RUclips
This is the third time I see RUclips commenting on this channel. They're not even lying.
Like a snake whispering in your ear.
The last few years have been filled with trials and tribulations, happiness, sadness and despair at times. Thankfully Leo and Tally Ho have been a consistent happy port in a storm to lift the spirits. Thank you everyone involved in this fabulous project it means a lot to many of us in RUclips land.
Zeal packing cotton into the joints on the deck is pure poetry in motion, and strangely relaxing 🙂
I've caulked a few boats and you're right, strangely relaxing. I'd get into a kind zone and the world would go away. I miss those days.
@@KRWoodworks and a fine art lost on many
Its the repetition and establishing a rhythm and when your good and not to many hiccups, by the end of the day you can do get a lot accomplished.. very therapeutic and fulfilling
I can’t understand why you still caulk with cotton and then put a hitech flexible sealing compound over it? Why not use a sealant adhesive alone?
@@waynejorgensen4433 It's probably double the protection. If the sealant fails the cotton is still there as backup.
Quite literally the best project I have ever followed from the very first episode. A piece of maritime history re born through sheer hard work and pure craftsmanship . I look forward to every episode . That boat on completion will be a priceless national treasure loved and appreciate by millions . I tip my hat to you sir . Bloody well don sir .
This is my favorite series on RUclips - easily! It's so satisfying and relaxing to watch this beautiful work of art come together!
Mine as well, and I watch far too many. And I admit that I watch them all at least twice….
Mine too!
Same!
I totally agree!!
Love the music 😊 rare on Utube
I really enjoy your segments of the boatyard. The views and the accompanying music evoke all sorts of emotions for me. Beauty, serenity, melancholy. Please keep doing them. You have a great eye.
As a former MEA (shipwright) in the RN, It's just wonderful to see that the old skills are still available through young and old. I wish I was not so knackered, as I would have loved to have been able to help in thia amazing restoration . Good luck young man, you deserve it.
you might have skill that would be useful for the crew of 'Ship Happens' on YT.
God Bless
Gotta say there are some truly artisans working on this project. From packing and caulking to cabinets doors and that companionway in the end was some amazing work! A joy to watch
Those cabinets and doors are art in motion. If you know you know.
I’m a little sad to see so many pros, instead of basically one guy in his garage with maybe a few well meaning but not particularly trained friends helping him.
But I also know that that does make the difference between a life’s work and a project that might eventually finish, at least done to this standard, so there’s very definitely that.
I have watched from the beginning and I have seen willing but inexperienced volunteers being slowly replaced by professionals with a lifetime of skills and experience. The finished yacht will be a testament to Leo's vision and dogged persistence. Well done!
I like the “louvred doors” bit when the “staff / colleagues / friends..”is working hard to make sure it’s all good, then silently Leo comes to have a final check at them, ….priceless… da boss!
I think I could see just how much Leo appreciated the quality of those louvred doors - he did not have to say a word, we could see he was content with the quality. My only wish would be to have seen the set up for routing of the grooves in the side frames. Such amazing skills. How many American or other high schools still teach woodwork? 5%??
Every kid these days wants an MBA or some useless degree, nobody wanrts to follow trades any more - perhaps the children of artists like these will be the next generation - I hope so, anyway!
@@Madiba100 dont generalise old man, is computing/coding a useless degree? Is medicine a useless degree? Although there may be some stupid degrees not all of them are bad
So many old people against uni because they generalise and think everyone is like caucausians and go there to get drunk and party
Well alot of people with strict religions dont, alot of people go to change there lives and get better careers
While woodworking maybe very romantic and ofcourse validating its not exactly a viable career, not for everyone atleast, even most of the guys in this video are volunteers
At the end of the day people gotta eat and survive, its sad but thats what world these rich people set us upon, unless your willing to sacrifice everything and go self sustaining you cant do anything
@@Madiba100 without coders with “useless“ degrees you wouldn’t be able to watch these videos over the internet for free my friend
I think he means MBAs not coders and Engineers
Watched the first five years in a week and a half, I needed this fix! Great work Leo and team.
I loved the guitar music
I am right there with you. I stumbled across the video about the dingy on Nov. 9. I finished the last video on Nov. and have been watching for this release.
Damn you just made me realize it's been 5 years
Is that how long it's been? Been watching every episode since near the beginning :D
Ah yes, the mistake that so many, including myself have made. At least it isn't the same as Project Binky, that is sheer agony and here you only have to wait a week.
@@twotone3070 Nine years now for Binky and still waiting. They must think it's a single malt.
Every bloody video I'm blown away about that craftmanship. Just awesome how wood is perfectly fitted on every detail. Beautiful.
This boat is so darn beautiful, you guys are incredible craftsmen. Can’t wait to see all this pay off.
as an aerospace worker, it's easy to see how Artemis is safely sailing the vacuum sea. we learned highest quality from our boat-building ancestors, personified in Leo, Patrick, Richard, Zeal, and all the other patient perfectionists.
It was my grandfather and uncles that salvaged the Tally ho in Rarotonga. My uncle was telling me the story just the other day of how they had to refloat it and tow it to shore.
The MacLeod family - true Kiwi adventurers !
I hope you've shown him its ongoing rebirth
@@realrayra They know about the rebuild. That's where some of the old photos came from, my family.
Absolutely LOVE the wide angle shot towards the end.
God this boat is absolutely beautiful.
Well done Leo and team
WOW, I'm just blown away by what is happening here, such experience and complete perfection! Right down to the simplest of layouts, it's so obvious that generations of sailing experience, boat-building, and an insane level of craftsmanship are all being bestowed upon this project!
And, of course Leo's own project management prowess, professionalism, boat building skills and will to succeed are the seeds of zeal for us all to appreciate this journey.
This thing just keeps getting better and better!
My wife and I , 73 and 77, are currently "cleaning out the garage", and it is a sad and somewhat tearful experience. Back in 1990 we were working towards doing The Big C -- out the Golden Gate and turn left, then "run til the butter melts" ... and we won't be home for dinner. But "life happened" and we are now too old and too infirm to do that. So we are packing up and giving away all of the bits and pieces that were part of that dream -- foulies and watch jackets, SOSpenders, our nav books and ephermises (but not the sextant!), etc., etc., etc. It is a truly painful process.
I know Leo started doing this for himself, but in the process he has given an invaluable gift to those us who also had the dream, but not the skills or the time. We dreamed, he does, and we thank him *so* much for sharing his journey with us all. God Bless Tally Ho! and all who will sail on her.
I love that Richard's beautiful craftsmanship is simply appreciated - no words necessary.
If you know you know
Leo and Team,
There are only so many ways to express the quality and artistry that goes into the restoration, selection of music and the skillful filming and editing of the videos and all those accolades are well deserved. Let me echo all the plaudits you have all received but let me add one thing more. Leo, you make all of us feel good and when there is much to feel bad about in this world you manage to show us the best of life. You and your team are unique.
Jim
So good to see the two old boys working together, just perfect.
You can tell everyone who he brings in to work on this boat are so happy to be there. Everything is so complicated yet made so well, Tally Ho is going to be a frikin global celebrity when she's done!!!
Richard, Clifton and Tom really have produced some outstanding work thus far.
Working in Construction, I hear the phrase "We ain't building Pianos.....", Yet here, Leo and the Team are Building to a standard that would make Tally Ho the Grandest of all Pianos - Steinway would be proud to produce such a boat. So this whole series gives me the Ying and Yang of sadness at the standard of the majority of mass produced everything in our commercialised society and the soaring Joy and Delight that craftsmanship and attention bring, when things are done right. Thank You.
Naa, more a Bosendorfer or Stuart and Sons.
@@alexandermenzies9954 Steinways are nice, but they’re pretty mass-produced.
Leo, your continued display of gratitude is such a welcome departure from much of what I see today, and I’d like to thank you!
I have been a carpenter for 55 years and you guys put me to shame , amazing work people.. just amazing!
This is officially my favorite channel on youtube; craftsmanships, music, and the people. Just the tops.
The shipwrights just keep getting better, and it’s great having Zeal back on the crew. Another amazing video, and I will watch it twice, or perhaps thrice!
The good thing about being my age Michael, is that I forget so quickly so I can start the whole series again & it will all be new again to me!!
Leo, as I watched your closing pan of Tally Ho (23:37 - 24:12) I felt a well of emotion rise. Hats off to Albert, and to you, for recognizing the bones of this beauty when you first saw her rotting in an Oregon boatyard. I salute your stamina, talent and vision to faithfully restore her to former beauty. I can't wait to see her launched (it is a "she"?), and follow your adventures around the world. Thank you for sharing the process.
Peer- Tally Ho is most definitely a lady and as such receives feminine pronouns.
Of course Tally Ho is a she. She's a ship.
A wondrous, mysterious, dangerous lady.
Funny that for some yrs I worked on Chinooks and Ospreys, and our prints worked to waterlines, as they were considered ships!!
That Main companionway hatch with the bronze portlights really transforms her looks. Outstanding work!
Zeal is remarkable in his ability to describe so much complex work in such few words. The man is amazing.
I've said it many times before, but it bears repeating: you and your crew are creating a thing of exquisite beauty. Hats off to everyone involved, you're all master craftsmen!
Love the louvered doors and that Leo basically said without saying "they speak for themselves, they are perfect and beautiful"
I feel like the "two years" is actually closer to "one year" now. So exciting!
They still have all of the rig to do, that's not a small job. So much work ahead of them still
Being a video editor myself, and seeing how Leo edits is breathtaking to me. The fact that you have such success from the videos I believe is that you keep the feel of the videos the same. I feel like I'm watching a home video but it is still well put together. You keep the video well organized to a professional degree but I still get to enjoy the personal time with all of the guys working on the project. That is no small feat, even for someone focusing all of their time on the video editing. But you are also managing this massive project. That is what keeps me watching every week. From a professional stand point you are extremely talented sir :D
Outstanding craftsmanship. So very good to see Zeal back on the project. And a warm welcome to Pat!
One of the enjoyable parts to boat building is how one's perspective changes during construction. At times, the project seems enormous; huge and almost unbelievably complex. Then, when one phase of construction ends, it will appear to have gotten smaller, more defined and manageable. The creation and hanging of the frames made this boat look gigantic. Now, with the hull complete and deck hardware going on, its much smaller, more personal, compact and simple appearing.
It will grow again with mast and rigging going in. Lastly, when launched, and she's in the water, she will attain her full dimension again.
Im sure out on the water, with a decent blow, Talley Ho will seem small at times.
thanks for the journey.
I live in land-locked Atlanta, GA and not a boat person. This series is so good it makes me emotional. The craftsmanship is out of this world.
Hello neighbor. I live in Athens. GO DAWGS! I wish I lived close to Leo so I could volunteer my time. I'll bet I could learn a ton. I already incorporate what I see here into my projects at home. More than one way to skin a cat.
Don't miss one of the early episodes where he sources live oak for the frames from Georgia!
@@gabrielamadeus I've watched every episode!
I am blown away by all of the collectives skills that have come along side to build this sexy craft. I haven't seen an ugly part go into this boat. It is getting exciting seeing how much closer to finished she is. Stay safe.
For ten years I worked with one of the world's best chefs and hoteliers, and the pleasure I got from being part of an utterly exceptional team I am getting once again (vicariously) from watching these videos. The thought, skill and care are extraordinary.
So fascinating to watch the progress. The craftsmanship is just unparalleled. Someday the restoration will be complete, and I hope Leo continues to make videos so we can in some small way take part in the ship’s journey.
The crew is expanding, this boat is getting done in no time! 💗
I bought a faucet once that had on the package, "Installs in no time." I always wondered what that meant. :D
Should be about 2 more years now😉
The teak. THE TEAK. So beautiful and excellently crafted.
Great to see the new and old guys working next to each other.
I really enjoyed the short segment of them hauling out Martha, on of of my favorite boats ever. I’m currently building a small dinghy that I’ve painted with her colors (or at least my nearest match thereof). As always, I’m enjoying the incredible journey you are taking us on. One beautiful crew equals one beautiful boat!
Richard's louvered doors are a work of art !!!
The craftsmanship of everyone working on Tally Ho is truly amazing! As a long time supporter of this project, I encourage anyone that hasn't contributed to do so. Even a small donation will help out Leo & the Crew and keep things moving forward. Thank you! 👍👍
I like your nickname Steve. I used to be on a cargo ship that used to go to Sapele in West Africa to collect all that beautiful wood. That was in the very early 60s, it was a totally different time to these!
I've een following this project since I began studying architecture in 2017, I've learnt so much about carpentry and building in wood watching your video's. The architecture degree is still about 2 years away though :-)
Ahhhhhh. Sunday morning. Coffee. Sampson boat co. has a new video out. Sometimes I believe it’s all gonna be ok
The craftsmanship in this thing is wild. These old timers putting in some beautiful items. As the project goes to a close, Id love to see a series of episodes outlining them and their work.
Definitely needs a featured website going forward, both as honorium, travelogue, encyclopedia / archive. Something besides videos alone.
As a carpenter (of homes and millworks) it's always fun to peep the unsung heros of this entire project--- THE TOOLS!
So many fun and interesting shop tools and power and hand tools floating around, and all the specialized boatbuilding tools.
I have a lot of old carpentry shop tools in my home shop that are from the 60s that I resurrected like a Powermatic 68 and 86
Seeing all that old stuff like that monster of a planer still being used still is cool, I miss that old bandsaw from the backyard days
Dear Leo, I am ever taken aback about the extreme high build quality you've employed in the restoration of Tally Ho. Magically, you've created funding for the project , Skillfully you've designed amazing high standards for the project. You've attracted a crew of skilled and inspired really wonderful people who've donated their talents to the project. Me, I haven't the resources to have contributed. I'm a sideliner, just wishing you the best, and in admiration of your abilities, how they might be harnessed.
Again, One cannot speak more admirable when it comes to the top level shipwright and cabinetmakers skills of all of these craftsman. The word “Bespoke” for everything done with Tally Ho is also almost an understatement and these talented craftsman are pretty much French Fitting the components of each piece as she goes together as were done with only the finest of 18th century dueling pistol cases, I’m just in awe of the care and pride everyone has taken to bring Tally Ho back to life ! All I can possibly add to the above is…. That day Leo walked into that still proud but extremely down on her luck famous ship named Tally Ho , somehow the sea’s parted and the sky’s turned blue
that day, because so few individuals had the love, the passion, vision and commitment to take this kind of project on. Thank you Leo and to all of your talented shipwrights for saving Tally Ho !
Great to have you back Leo, you and your workers are amazing. Miss all the workers that have come and gone and hope to see them later on in your sailing adventures. Your getting closer to that big launch day.
Truly a tour de force of planning, skill, and know how. Makes me, a humble landlubber realise how Tally Ho is much more than simply the sum of each and every carefully crafted part. Fascinating and heartwarming to see skilled hands doing skilled work.
To say Tallyho is a master peace is a understatement she will be the finest crafted boat ever made. Just exceptionally beautiful.
You have the best music. Thanks for taking time to include it 😊
You're the amazing one, Leo! The craftmanship that goes into that boat is beyond compare!
@@_BLENDRR Agree! It's also astonishing to watch as Leo & Co. create a masterpiece!
John. Wow! Hell of job. The cabinets are so nice and tight, Leo was speechless!
"Oh grandpa look, a boat!"
"That little guy, it's more than a boat, much more than that!!"
Congratulations to the whole team!
Everyone working on Tally Ho is doing a really great job, I love to see true craftsmen doing amazing work...
Things are suddenly moving rather fast, it’s starting to take shape both inside and out 🎉🎉💪
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Tally Ho represents the gold standard among RUclips boatbuilding channels. No compromises made here. It gladdens the heart of this old shipwright. Thanks for posting.
Come on people, MASH THE LIKE BUTTON! 383K views and only 30K likes? It doesn't take much to click the like button while watching this awesome video! Great job Leo and crew!
One of the most beautiful things about this project is the attention to detail, so nice to stand back and look at the beautiful lines. Great to see Zeal back.
I must say Leo's B roll is as wonderful as the work shots.
Always makes me wish I was out on the peninsula
@@HunterJE I'm a New England guy so just about anywhere on the coast of Maine
She's coming along beautifully . Couldn't be more impressed in the craftsmanship every person has put into Tally Ho. Love the content Leo, Thankyou!
Every time I get a glimpse of the hull lines it takes my breath away - Tally Ho is beautiful!! More great work carefully done. It's amazing to see how far the project has come under Leo's guidance and care.
I enjoy learning about boats through your videos and that's what brings me back, but this week it struck me that you have really stepped up your videography and editing skills to professional quality. The soundtrack is excellent. Your transitions are seamless. Your work both on the boat and the videos is impressive. Well done.
The last rising shot that slowly reveals the deck brought a tear to my eye. So beautiful.
Couldn't agree more
The catharsis I get from watching those bits of wood get shaped and installed into such beautiful components of Tally-Ho makes is significant. Thanks Leo and team for sharing your skills and passion for your craft.
The boat is little by little looking as a finished boat. Looks great. Congratulations!
Working in Construction, I hear the phrase "We ain't building Pianos.....", Yet here, Leo and the Team are Building to a standard that would make Tally Ho the Grandest of all
You have surrounded yourself with some outstanding people.
Martha is a good-looking boat. Great update 2x👍
Richard, those doors look incredible
Another exciting episode it’s always a pleasure to see what progress has been made by all these highly skilled craftsmen.
As time goes on it becomes more apparent that this project is as much a form of art as it is saving a legendary sailing yacht. The craftsman that find their way to Tally Ho are practicing their art while saving a historical yacht. Thanks for taking the time bringing this project to RUclips
Lots of good stuff going on! What a wonderful team. Welcome to Pat - it´s going to be so rewarding to see the deck furniture be added. Look at George at 9:28! He is petting the old bronze :-) Thank you for the overview towards the end - she is a beauty!!
The boat is looking stunning.
Thanks Leo for building Tally Ho twice! Once out of wood and once from video.
Always keen for the next episode :)
Great high-level pan at 23:28 Leo. Really reminds me of just how far you, and this project have come in the years I've been following it.
You have gathered the most amazing group of artisans who truly amaze me every episode. Shouting out loud at some of those shots, companionway assembly was amazing.
Truly a work of art.....so nice to see the progress...... Massively Brilliant craftsmen loving what they do.....
From among the quite beautiful fabrication, I perhaps most enjoyed the quote..."Oh, I am 50 years on at shipwright. A huge clarity of the skill required and shown to the tasks one by one to fitting out. This statement, a reflection upon the constant to vessels so useful to the sailor. Strength and product that must withstand storms. But this one bit more...can it be these men and women who find their place at lands end...are happy to this life? Reflecting...always...that craftmanship to satisfaction as...first personal in worth and fit..finish and signed a bit in that making. Just maybe, that is the place the coin captures to under the mast. What men and women send to the sea. Dreams made real. M.
My 3 seconds of Tally Ho fame 😂 but seriously, thanks for hosting me and letting me contribute. Can’t wait to come back!
I still can't get over the beauty of the wood grain as you cut and sand it..... it's absolutely beautiful.....
There must be a lot of sharkhazam floating around the shop that they feel the need to clarify that Joe “isn’t a weird cookie”.
Great work crew!!!
Still wowed by the craftsmanship the team exhibits on this project. I look forward to each new installment. Again, thank you for letting this old boy peek through the window!
Every element of this build is sheer perfection 🤩👍
Halyard makes great stuff - but exhaust hoses close to the engine move around with the pulses of water moving through them. So the hose WILL chafe where it goes through that bulkhead. Use some chafing material on the bulkhead sharp edges. Great work
What a really absorbing and aesthetically lovely episode. It just made me want more.
I can’t believe I’ve been following for 5 years. But you have kept at it with amazing determination for five years, it great to see it all coming together!
One of the many things that blows me away, is the amount of collective experience from everyone involved that is going into this restoration work. It is just frankly mind blowing! The level of craftsmanship and added to this, with the love and dedication of their craft from each and everyone of the individuals, is just staggering and wonderful to behold. Keep up the amazing work. Cheers T
Tremendous amount of skill and knowledge has gone into the re-build of that boat. Looks like Triggers broom is coming together nicely with the heart and spirit of Tally-Ho. Keep up the good work chaps.
It's so cool to see all this come together and kinda sad it's getting close to the end! Happy Thanks Giving you guys!
Still plenty more to do, but I see what you mean. We can look forward to follow Leo and Tally Ho even after they have left the harbour :-)
