Good afternoon! I hope everything is well! Please send me a link on how I can make a Butterfly hatch from the beginning (from the scratch) using a dry wood boards in carpentry workshop. Thank you in advance.
I watched part 2 and 3 and first I want to applaud your beautiful craftsmanship, and the classic larger vessel and ship details such as the sliding hatch and companionway doors! Beautifully done sir! Also, the first small correction to terminology is that lovely "Fiddlehead" bow detail which is actually called a "Figurehead" and not "Maidenhead" good sir. The second small correction is that Hawsepipe is a pipe from the weather deck angled downward and forward passing through the side of the vessel and through which the anchor chain runs and into which is housed the shank of the anchor when hoisted "Home" a Hawse hole is the covered deck opening in a smaller sailing vessel leading to the chain/rope locker where you would store your anchor chain/line! Also, the pronunciation is not like Canadians speak-eh, so not Haws-EH (A) pipe but simply HawZ pipe! I just heard something that makes my "Mariners" skin crawl as you mention working on your bowsprit and something you call a binnacle for the bow of the boat!!! A "Binnacle" is a piece of marine equipment that houses the compas and would never have anything to do with a bowsprit or the bow of a vessel AT ALL! I just watched that part instead of hearing it and I believe you refer to the cast bronze pad-eye band fitted over the tip of your bowsprit. That is correctly called a "Cranz Iron" sir and to which you attach your headstay, bobstay and bowsprit guys/stays. My credentials: Master Oceans, Steam, Motor & Sail, Master of Sail, Historic Ship Restoration, modern sail and tall ship Rigger and I would expect if I misnamed a part of a violin or pronounced it incorrectly that you would politely correct me, and I'd be only too happy to add that to my knowledge base. AGAIN, BRAVO on your Perfecto! She is a lovely gem of which I know you must be very proud and deservedly so!
These little pocket cruisers are interesting but I honestly don’t get it. They’re too small they be comfortable or practical. Seems like it makes more sense to buy a 21 to 31 foot boat and just customize it
Top notch craftsmanship on this beautiful pocket cruiser but Jaysus, that unfortunate ear splitting horrendous music jumping up & down in volume makes this unwatchable. Your talents would have been better served with just your narration. I never understood why people insist on background music in instructive videos. This isn't a drama that needs atmospheric mood music. I desperately hope you sorted this out in your part 2 video of this excellent build.
you really are acting like a violin maker here. as a violinist and boat builder I have great respect for the perfection of violins, but when building boats, I dont see much need for this much perfection. mainly because boats just get banged up a lot all the time, and the fact that people dont see the boat as closely as they do a violin.
What an impressive job you did on this boat. She is really handsome. I am so glad I watched this video, as I had entertained thoughts of building a Pocketship, and now I know that I will not.
You have done an extraordinary job on her. Have you taken her to blue water, big seas, maybe a storm? Keeled her way over? How did she do? She is so beautifully built that I’m betting you would not challenge her in blue water or heavy seas, maybe a bit delicate. I know you would protect her. Texas
I would love to try to build one of these kits. I've been a chesapeake bay sailor my whole life, and pocket ship looks like a dream for the bay's shallow water, but I have zero boat building experience
Thank you for sharing your experiences building the boat. I enjoy watching your video. I'm curious of how tall the boat nested on its trailer. Can you remove the tabernacle so it can reduce the height to clear the garage ceiling for storage?
Handcrafting a boat is a precious investment in your life. There is something unique in the process, a form of art and skill. An emotional journey of patience and memories. I certainly enjoyed this winters morning learning about the building of "Perfecto"
it's very annoying that when you finally get the camera far back enough to see something beside gunky wood, you cut to another piece of gunky wood. great boat, but .....your photography leave a LOT to be desired
What a beauty! Sorry, i am complete nube, but i guess this kind of boats is only for lakes and rivers? In my region there is only sea, but i dream about a boat, i could transport myself and store it at my garage or the yard . Is it possible?
A real shame that as usual crappy music ruins this video and makes it virtually unwatchable. I know that it is from 2016, but even in 2016 I could easily normalize the volume on a multi-track recording. Just not worth the trouble to have to keep working the volume button constantly to hear the barely audible narration, and then to mute the overly loud crappy music. up, down, up, down, up, down goes the volume on nearly all of these you-tube videos... 2020 now, and video creators will never learn that we didn't click the video to hear your favorite music selection at volumes that are guaranteed to wake my room-mate at 5am...
I love the ship and all the perks you threw into it , the first instrument I learned was violin 😉. I so want to make one of these in a fully varnished finish. A small pirate ship if you will 😂 have a good one
I know it's a bit late, but aren't those hatch hinges inverted? Or do they jam before 360 degrees of rotation. Hinge plates normally sit flush against each other when closed...
Is it for sale?

Good afternoon, whether you have no reference to production of the hatch of a butterfly, by own efforts with 0? I thank.
How do you prevent rain water from leaking past the gull wing piano hinges?
The music really distracts from your talking.

god, why the bloody awful music.
Absolute beautiful! How long are the berth and how much sitting headroom inside?
Hi scott did you sell perfecto please? Thks Beautifully built.
Music to loud. Bollocks

Splendid little vessel.

Wonderful job and beautiful craftsmanship you are truly an artist and a sailor, Thank you for posting your build.
Good 👍 work with mind enlightening details! Thank you 🙏🏼 sir.

Well done!! You have built a magnificent boat !!! Where did you buy the building plans?
A beautiful day sailor
Great job! Perfect craftsmanship! CONGRATULATION!!!! But.....the pictures slideshow effekts are nerve-trying :-)
What an impressive job you did on this boat. She is really handsome. I am so glad I watched this video, as I had entertained thoughts of building a Pocketship, and now I know that I will not.
hermoso trabajo felicitaciones
Lovely boat wish I could build one
That the recording my voice what is going on now I’ll turn it off and
Shitcan the music , it would make for a far less irritating experience.
Impressive Carpentry Skills! Well Done
You have done an extraordinary job on her. Have you taken her to blue water, big seas, maybe a storm? Keeled her way over? How did she do? She is so beautifully built that I’m betting you would not challenge her in blue water or heavy seas, maybe a bit delicate. I know you would protect her. Texas
Beautiful and the paint job was perfecto. A tropical touch. Hope the wine glasses held up in the chop . I'm sure you took that into consideration.
I would love to try to build one of these kits. I've been a chesapeake bay sailor my whole life, and pocket ship looks like a dream for the bay's shallow water, but I have zero boat building experience
Jack Dodsworth I may be selling Perfecto next season. I’m building another boat.
Thank you for sharing your experiences building the boat. I enjoy watching your video. I'm curious of how tall the boat nested on its trailer. Can you remove the tabernacle so it can reduce the height to clear the garage ceiling for storage?
A.J. Lumahan it can be removed👍🏻👍🏻
It's a beautiful little ship. Captain Jack Sparrow would be proud.
Did you build the boat on a larger scale or just make it a foot longer? Can you sail it in the ocean at all?
Made it a foot longer along with making the cabin sides higher and a larger foot well width. Also,
I made the companion door wall less slanted.
Pocketship is an impressive design. This one has even more character !
Handcrafting a boat is a precious investment in your life. There is something unique in the process, a form of art and skill. An emotional journey of patience and memories. I certainly enjoyed this winters morning learning about the building of "Perfecto"
I knew about this tiny ship today. Maybe it will be my initiation to the dream of sailing. I would like very much to see more of your videos.
Fun watching!
it's very annoying that when you finally get the camera far back enough to see something beside gunky wood, you cut to another piece of gunky wood. great boat, but .....your photography leave a LOT to be desired
Great craftsmanship! Can't believe you made your own louvered doors! I would have just bought them at Lowes!
...семь завистливых людей поставили дизлайк
I want to know more about Lazy Lucy. Is there plans? And do you have a build video for Lucy?
River Rat I built her from actual 1934 Fenwick Williams plans. They are hard to find these days. And no videos of this build⛵️⛵️
Scott W. Hershey very nice attention to detail. You can tell you build instruments...
There are many photos of the build on my actual web site: hersheyviolins.com Enjoy⛵️⛵️
What a beauty! Sorry, i am complete nube, but i guess this kind of boats is only for lakes and rivers? In my region there is only sea, but i dream about a boat, i could transport myself and store it at my garage or the yard . Is it possible?
Trying to watch your video but that awful music was very annoying
Gord Elliston I agree could have done better😬🤨🤪
Scott W. Hershey I turned off sound, the video was good.
Beautiful boat, shame about the halfwit dopey noise irritatingly pointless accompaniment to your commentary.
barry fullick I agree with you on the background music. Not my best effort and choice. I did these videos in a hurry and it shows🤨🤪⛵️⛵️
What a beautiful boat, well done, you are a master craftsman, I love it. 👍🇬🇧
Dave Evans thank you Dave👍🏻⛵️
What a craftsman, fabulous job. 👍🇬🇧
Dave Evans thank you Dave👍🏻😂⛵️⛵️
Beautiful project!!! Beautiful sailboat!!! Great work!!!
Luciano Rezende Gondim thank you👍🏻👍🏻⛵️⛵️
