Nick....i've recently bought myself a 48ft Admiralty Pinnace. Double diagonal hull. I'm about to embark on restoring her. I'm fairly confident i know what i'm doing and excited to do so. TH-cam recommended this channel to me and i'm faithfully getting my way through this entire series. SUCH a wealth of knowledge......drinking it in! Thank you for an entertaining, enlightening and sincere programme. Wish you were back ont' telly. Thanks for uploading :)
Nick, great channel. If I happened to be shipwrecked on a desert island, I’d be set if you were there! We’d build dingy and be off in a few weeks! Keep up the great work, you have some serious ship wright skills!
Hi Nick, this is a great series of videos. I'm not bothered that it's not widescreen but was it made a few years ago, and was it for TV? The reason I ask is that it is such a professional production! I hope to sail one day, and perhaps work on wooden boats. This is inspirational, thanks.
Nick really enjoy your vids. Notice though you use inches and feet when talking measurements and you seem to have an aversion to safety glasses. Still enjoy and respect your work. Thanks for sharing.
6:50 is funny, CK 36 is a smack. Is CK shorthand for smack? Wouldn't SM do? Listen to 11:15, Rupert explains my joke. You British have peculiar sense of humour, heaven't you?
CK stands for Colchester, it's registered port, first and last letters. It should be CR, but thst is in use by Crotone, Italy. www.wildmuir.co.uk/fish/fishingports.htm
FOR GODS SKE NICK TELL THE MEN ON YOUR VIDEOS TO GET RID OF THE MAN BUNS THE BUNS ARE OUT OF STYLE!!! UNLESS BREXIT GOES THROUGH YOUR BOATS WONT EEN BE ABLE TO FISH IN ENGLISH WATERS!!! JUST SAING OLD ONE LEGGED JOSEPH T RETIRED NAVY

Fab boat! Teak or mahogany?

I could watch Nick at work all day !
Awesome series. Thank you for posting.
Great series! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and the knowledge of others. I love the boat tours. Best!

Just seen at the very end MMII. Not very good at Roman Numerals but I believe that's 2002, so question answered! Look forward to watching the rest.
Lovely series. Watching for the 3rd time. Any chance you will allow episode 3 to be watched again?
You wish is my command!
@@seanicky You're a star!!!

It says that it was produced for the discovery channel at the end of it

Nick Gates, I have been watching many of these videos, and I wanna know what kind of vehicle your driving around in the intro.
Hi Scott, it's a Morris Minor Van, converted to pick up....then I made a dinghy aft end for it..
Cheers, Nick.
Nick Gates it's great. And a testament to your skills. Cheers mate
I wished i saw this years ago , but youtube hid it until now
And 9:44, is the dog's name Orca? He looks exactly like a negative orca, does he? Or she...
