  • Colin Archer's yard at last. After many decades Tom finally sails up to a major point in his pilgrimage to discover whether or not his old boat was a real Colin Archer.

    Tom, in a word, is effusive. He has such great respect, admiration, and appreciation of sailing in general whether it is the boats he had, the men who made them, the experiences, adventures, loves, and children he had on them. His enthusiasm is contagious.

    What a delightful turn of phrase this man has. I could listen to him speak all day.

    Wonderful story Mr Cunliffe, you have led a blessed life indeed. Loved the old photos of your boat, especially the ones of you & Roz, what a great looking couple you were and surely still are. I also love the way you honor and respect your boats, that's how it should be. I've done the same with aircraft all my life in aviation - treat them well and show them genuine respect and they'll look after you ☺️ It's all part of the stuff that lifelong dreams are made of, when they become reality cheers! 👍🏼☺️

    What a mystery Saari is. I remember my grandfather 'Jonny' Johnson talking about her when he lived aboard his Colin Archer 'Escape', on the Hamble River. What a wonderful experience to visit the Archer homestead in Norway.

    I have a 48ft LOA Colin Archer built in 1978. It is a very sturdy boat as you know well. I just discovered your channel and will be following your adventures.

    My father, later known as Mad Mike Hoare, had a 36' double ender in Durban, South Africa, in the 60s, named Colin Archer after the man himself, and built by Emanuel Moen and Tor Nilsen Sauvik in Risor, Norway, in 1937. It was pretty much just like yours. I believe it is back in the Risor area now. I have wonderful memories of sailing our Colin Archer. Enjoyed your vlog.

    If I'm correct, Amundsen's "Fram" was designed by Colin Archer. I have been to the site of Fram's constr in Norway
