Melodeon is a custom designed and homebuilt Motorsailer. The hull design is based on a Tucker 43 expanded to 47’ LOD. The hull, deck and superstructure are all steel, and the welding was performed by certified welders. Professional architects, engineers and trades people were consulted during all phases of construction, and Lloyd’s and ABYS standards were observed.

Learning the Lines is a channel about us, an average couple in our 20's, with big dreams to be sailing the world by the time we're in our 30's. We're not afraid to jump into anything, put in the work, and learn as we go. We started out with Somnium, an O'day 272, moved onto Freebie, an Endeavour 32, and now are focusing on sailboat tours and working full time as teachers while we save up for our next boat.

I like the galley being near the steering station. While solo or on night watch, you could cook and eat without abandoning the helm.
Someone put a great deal of love and thought as well as their life into building that boat. I hope the new buyer will take it to the four corners of the world as it was obviously intended.
This was home built!? Absolutely beautifully designed and built. You can just 'feel' the stability and strength features of it.!
At first the 'home built' label made me skeptical - but then you realize the builder took 30 years to get everything perfect. No engineer could possibly anticipate the realities of boat life as well as someone living aboard for decades.
What an awesome boat. Reminds me of something like 1930's junk steamer from Africa or South Asia. Plus with it being steel means you don't have to worry about much in terms of weather. It is eclectic but that is the charm. They did a great job. For a home build especially.
The "Delta D" signal flag sticker on the pilot house door spelling "MELODEON" should be flipped to the right, where the "Yellow & Blue" vertical strips should be in horizontal manner.😉😉😉😉
What a cool, very custom design.
I was surprised at just 49,000 lbs, I figured it would run an easy 70,000.
Your right, that boat will go anywhere, in any weather conditions
It is a beautiful boat.... without doubt endless love and energy was needed and given to her to achieve this...
She’s 24 1-2 tons of solid boat, if I were to own her I would do a few minor changes, mainly cosmetic but with all the mechanicals and redundancy built into her I wouldn’t touch, the owner put a lot of thought and love into this vessel, very cozy.
Unique is a very good word for this boat. Not my cup of tea, but I enjoy seeing something different. It'd be a boring world if we all liked the same things.
No tea on this boat, only percolated coffee ... made on an alcohol stove ... for a 3rd fuel consideration.

Whenever I think about ocean sailing in a sailboat I think about worst case scenarios. The solid construction of this boat means that there are very few situations that will result in the death of the people on board.
What a fantastic vessel! Great layout! And it has everything!
Thanks for the tour!
Personally? I find this design and decor just wonderful! With junk sails! WAY more fun than the standard fare... amazing!!!!
Beautiful and well-designed boat. Like the junk rig. Thank you for featuring it.
Definitely a cool boat, great tour! As usual thanks for broadening horizons of what's out there to be sailed!
.
I think you've hit it out of the ballpark with this absolutely beautiful vessel, thanks for showing us. The Owners should be so very proud of this magnificent achievement. It's about as close to perfect as is possible.....
I like the combination of a junk rig and a steel double ended hull. Very nice.
Smartly laid out. The unguyed mast really cleans up the deck. Kudos.
Wow them locks have grown.
While very much not the boat for us I *love* this tour.
You've taken the advice from comments to show all the boat and, boy howdy, did you include details during the final walkthrough. 🙂
If I were to have this boat it would get a very major refit which, sadly, would likely wreck much of what the owner/builders tried to do as we don't seem to sail the way they do....not saying they are wrong but that we approach it differently. I hope she finds a new home with folks who can truly appreciate what the builders did and get the maximum out of her. She is an amazing vessel.
Thanks for this very interesting home-built boat tour
The builder did a great job. Very impressed.
Definitely looking good ,thanks for sharing 👌
That's my cup of tea. We get more rain here than sun, pilot house, multiple stoves, cook on diesel, formica on everything, just the ticket.
I love this boat. I wish I could have it!
Thanks for the video.
What a truly amazing boat. The cabinetry, storage, sleeping, all the goodies, access to the engine. WOW! Will it float?
Stout heavy weather vessel . And a beauty! My grand father Bas STALLARD would approve. " Mapu " was a flush deck gaff rigged double ender ,pitch poled in the Tasman sea out of Lord Howe 77. Broke our hearts. This vessel is truly a sea going girl!
A perfect Hippy Boat. Great tour. Thanks 🇺🇸
I knew there was a reason I loved it.
Love your channel it’s absolutely great
Thank you so much for showing this beautiful vessel. Just on start saw the pilot House has speakers going for and aft, very nice. The Stove stack having a bar protection rods around her, could grab those in Emergency instead of burning hands if Sea state was large. Love the deck spot lights facing forward for work lights on deck in Dark. The Cargo BIG hatch, someone was Really thinking smartly with that add on. Love the Sails, perfect for the wind to push you in Direction you are heading, instead of having too TAC. Love the look of cabin, it's just that workboat Look, but a cruising vessel in any Sea State. Your narrative is so full of excellent information. Very nice job, showing this ( I want this vessel of my Dream boat)
There's so much going on with this small and lovely beast, but I loved the "workshop" just by the side of the engine. All that you need to do maintenance within arm's reach, and while standing!
I love this little steel clipper.
Motor sailer is my dream boat. Thanks for this vid.
Nice tour Jordan. That is a nice boat. Thank you for tonight's video.
I use to work on tow boats and it had skin coolers for twin v-16s and don’t ever remember any damage to them and they get hit heavy loads. The keel coolers are up a was from bottom I would think . The guy who built this was no dummy so I would not think that would be a problem with all he has done with all back up systems.
Thats an awesome boat. Impressed!
I think it looks amazing, has a lot of character and it's own unique charm. The new owner could easily change seat covers, wall colors, etc to make it look quite a bit different if desired.
A boat for the high seas. Awesome.
This one is ticking all the right boxes for me. Pilot house, steel, everything redundant, three unstayed masts with junk rig! I want this boat.
2 unstayed masts, 1 stayed
That is some kind of heavy duty boat! At first I thought it was only motor powered but then saw the masts.
Steel hulls seem like a good idea when sailing near Portugal where there's been recent group Orca attacks on sailing vessels resulting in damage and sinking.
Say, do you have any links to those attacks by Orcas? I've heard of only one, no where near Portugal. Seemed more lije younger playful one from a Pod, bit off and swam off with rudder
@@alexpineiro7960 it’s believed that they link the boats to the lack of fish in the water for them to eat. It’s a lot easier for them to take out their anger on sailboat s moving slowly than a propped vessel moving quicker and possibly injuring themselves.
A beautiful well built boat, the junk sails look amazing giving the craft with such a unique look. New to your channel, and you got my subscription because I want to see more about what you do.
Eclectic is the word for the day!
Looks like a great boat in any weather. More of a motor sailboat than a true sailboat design. Maybe slow but comfortable.
Are you trying to say motorsailer?
Don't apologise for speaking, you're explaining your process and I'm loving it 💚
I kept expecting Bogart to jump out at you but I think your right it's a tank
Impressive well thought out boat. I’ve seen and sailed with “junk” style sails on the Great Lakes and like the idea. Comparing this to a 30’ 5th wheel trailer I have, the fresh water, black tank, grey tank are not adequate for more than a 5 day trip, 10 if you are very clever on use.
LOVE the boat, and thought put into it. Unfortunately it’s way out of my budget. Someone is going to enjoy this very much 👍🏼
Really awesome boat! Everything I would want!
Very nice boat. Interesting layout. Certainly looks sturdy. It seems to be more of a motor sailor with that displacement and sail area. Nice engine. And good access for a change. Of course steel maintenance. Looks like in good shape though.
What a beauty, and your presentation did it justice. Safe, fun, and blessed travels.
Beautiful!
The Pilot house is like a really cool day room.
멋진 보트네요
Very nice boat
The algorithm has done well. Great content, just subbed.
Looks like a great boat expedition boat/ surf boat.
Incredible boat.
This is my kind of boat! Lots of character!
What a neat boat!
With so much safety equipment I would’ve expected to also see watertight bulkheads down below.
Yeah, this is definitely a cool boat.
No idea why TH-cam brought me here, but boy oh boy am I glad it did. Your channel is freaking awesome!
My own ideal voyaging ship was a long keel junk schooner with a pilot house - and I bought a fiberglass hull and deck, finished it out, and crossed the Pacific in it. It was ideal - and I previously voyaged in a fin keel sloop with no pilot house. I named her Batwing, and she was in the Hasler McCloud book on the junk rig.
Love you're CHANNEL. Good job
Hair looks great bro. I wore mine that long in the 70s.
Searching for a similar Motor Sailer, which I think is the most practical design for distance cruising and living aboard.
I like the strength aspect. For myself, I'd refurbish the whole thing, but I think the boat definitely has personality and isn't just a floating sneaker.
Wow! The designer / builder put a lot of thought into this boat. Not just the design, but the materials and fittings too. My only niggling disagreement would be to mount the radar higher...like mast head.
I like it , very nice and clean
Love it
I love the communitarian design here, where everyone can have some privacy yet no one is an island.
I'd buy this in a heartbeat, if it were the right time 🔥 great video
I love it an wish I was rich enough to purchase her... Ideal ! What a Stunningly beautiful vessel... Just want it...
I love the bath tub.
Beautiful someone is going to love her and sail her around the world definitely
She kinda has a steampunk vibe
@@Godofthemoon1 just a touch... I thought so, too. But, sailing sailors dream of creating such a vibe. Form follows function...
love that boat
Nice!
I've always liked y'all's videos and really like this boat.
I believe the 'pins' to which you refer are Marlin spikes.
Belaying pins. Marlin spikes are for breaking knots and splicing.
Sorry, I posted my comment before the video ended. Thank you for including the information that I mentioned. Peace!
Worked on a large number of boats and yachts from about 25ft. To 90 ft and this is by far MY favorite for its layout, safety, redundancy, and just over-all practicality. I LOVE the galley in the pilot house! Always hated cooking below and being tossed about but not seeing or being able to communicate, this overcomes that. This boat could go anywhere, and that’s where I would take it. . . . And by the way, I personally love the interior! Were I buying it, I would ask them to leave as much of the decor as they felt comfortable leaving to me.
The escape ladder over the wood stove is for drying wet towels and clothes. That is but one feature of this amazing boat.
Supercool boat
Cool boat. I cannot help but think it would be very slow but for some the trade off in durability may be worth it.
Love it.
Wow! Very nice 👍🙂
"The coolest boat ever! Awesome!"
Wow she's a beauty. I love the size and design. Would be a joy to sail the seas on her.
"circumnavigating the main salon" haha
Truly, she's a real beauty.
Love your boats and your adds. Id like to see the outside of your boats while you talk over the advertisement.
Love the boat, only thing I'd add would be a water maker of some type that would extend range in my opinion
I love your boat by the way Is blinking brilliant I want one It would be lovely to travel some of the world
It's a very nice boat.
Cheers to you. ..
Been 50 years in the marine industry. I have never seen anything like her.
Over engineered beauty, go anywhere for sure. subbed and shared...
Those big high windows look pretty vulnerable if green water comes aboard, tempered glass or not…
They're 5/8" thick which very thick indeed for tempered glass.
With the steel hull, what kind of corrosion inhibiter (zinc) are in place . Also what kind of grounding system is involved, for lightening strikes? Other than that ,I loved the boat from bow to stern. I am a huge fan of junk rigged sails. You can set them and forget them. No constant trimming, and tensioning involved. Tacking is easy. This is my ideal boat, and just the right size. You can tell the amount of attention to detail the owner/builder put into this vessel, with lots of love, and pride.
Look up 'SV Seeker' - if you haven't already.
Galley and bunk in the pilothouse would be awesome for singlehanding.
Now that is a sailboat
Reminds me of a steel hulled Watts design ketch built in South Africa... Norica, owned for awhile by a German couple, then was a fixture on the lower Chesapeake Bay for twenty plus years and eventually sold to some Englishmen who were going for a round trip of the planet. Originally had a British Leyland Diesel, replaced with a Perkins in the late 80s. One would notice that this vessel seems a bit short on room for stowage for essential at sea necessities, spares. Even a boat this size becomes a bit confining at sea, but not too bad. Boats like this are generally very safe at sea, but the Watts could get knocked over in a sudden squall if you aren't quick in reducing canvas. One thing that the owners might consider is a fully chain rode for the anchor. Interesting that the builder/ designer went with an unstayed Junk rig. She'll be nice to handle, steady with the keel, maybe just a bit under canvased, though. But, the nice 'iron lung' to motorsail with will get them where they're going to. Have fun with her. It's a beautiful boat.
Beautiful boat - Great presentation!
nice boat
What was that kick ass background music? I want more...lol ☕ 😊💨👍, very nice video Bro, very well done ... & that is one bad azz boat,and Freakin Awesome ! 😎✌
