EPISODE 53.
Having installed the new Stem, it’s time to replace all the frames in the bow of the boat! Eight awesome volunteers show up and we get straight to work, training them to build double-sawn Live Oak frames. We start out at half-speed while everyone learns their jobs, and then gradually increase the pace. My old friend Joe is helping out with filming and editing, while his girlfriend Nadine cooks for us. I have a feeling that the tea-break banter is going to be strong, this month!

53. Frame-Raising 2.0 - Meeting the crew (Tally Ho EP53)
I stumbled across this channel perhaps a week or so ago, I really don't know. Pretty much been watching all 53 videos nonstop. I think my wife may have left me a few days ago. I need a shower. And a shave. I must eat something.
Seriously, this has got to be the best thing on TH-cam. Bar none.
What a great contribution from the Albert Strange Association in sponsoring Finn.
Someone one said if you can't help everyone, at least help one.
Hats off to Leo for passing on his knowledge at the same time as learning new skills himself such as man management etc.
Acorn To Arabella is better.
@@dsloop3907 I wouldn’t say A to A is better, they are both outstanding in their own way. The work ethic, dedication, craftsmanship and art demonstrated by both projects is inspiring.
So good to see that you had Finn back here. He's been amazing.
Re. Finn. One of the most fantastic and enduring outcomes of this project would be the creation of new generation of boat builders! Kudos to the Albert Strange Association for having a vision far beyond preserving one boat.
I know of at least one past crew member who is currently building a shop and will soon begin on a canoe. Inspiration makes dreams come true - with a lot of work, of course.
Here Here
@@glendab.6267 -- That's awesome!!
Would also like to add that I’ll be the second volunteer to be building boats, after leaving sequim from the first frame raising, on my return to England I found myself purchasing a 45’ oyster smack, and found work in a boat yard for a shipwright! Keep your eyes peeled for the first video release 😜
Huge thanks for all the kind words and continuing support!!
Big love!!
Finn
@@knotfinnishedyet9170 Great moniker! Here's wishing you a wonderful and prosperous future, Finn.
Kudos to the Albert Strange Organization for the crowd funding to help bring volunteers!
Great to see Finn back, I hope Kurt and Tom aren't too far behind.
A fellow employee was building the same boat. Unfortunately he died before completion, cancer at 55. So my hope is when you complete this project, sail it long and well, for all those that couldn't. May the wind always be at your back. Beautiful boat.
Was that the previous owner of this boat? A photo or two of him made it into the early episodes. Or did you just mean a similar boat?
I just went back and watched EP19 (Milling Live Oak) again. Steve Cross and his sawmill are fascinating. I’m enjoying this journey.
This video series is a fantastic example of how human society functions. Leo just started filming his SOLO adventure. His insane idea that he could save this ship. But he is a genius at making videos, though I suspect to this day he does not know that. His crazy devotion to this idea of building a WOODEN boat, for no other reason but love of the history, the passion he brings to it, inspired people all over the world, to come join him in his endeavor. (The trucker who delivered the boat from Oregon to Sequim, built a chainsaw jig for this project. That is how Leo inspires the best in people.) I find this one in particular delightful. Several people derived so much satisfaction from their first stint that they are back for more. You rock Leo.
Watching all those volunteers enjoying dinner at the table makes my patreon donatons worth it! Oh, and the boat is coming along nice too.
Great to see Finn and Pat back
Yes I remember Finn being a real asset last time he was there.
Thought i recognised him
Finn has own Channel & build now th-cam.com/channels/5Jr5t5-qtffBte10I_1B8g.html
Glad to see Finn back too! Guy is a surgeon with that chainsaw!
Ya know, well-intentioned people keep dropping in with ideas for "Leo's next project" and "Leo's next rescue'.
But Leo buddy, when this build is done and finished and floating on the tide I sincerely hope you go for a nice long sail.
Yup. And just out videos from his sailing journeys for money.
Subscribed from the start, Leo...and could see the enormity of the task you set for yourself....Could not help but wonder if it was possible to complete solo. While I have no doubt you could have rebuilt Tally by yourself...I also doubt I would have lived to see that completion. So appreciative for all the volunteers!!! My major regret is being too old (almost 70) to throw my hat in with the rest of the volunteers. But I'm sweating vicariously at home and saluting as each new frame finds its home on Tally. Many thanks for sharing your trials and tribulations with us...your adoring subs. Salute!!
I would say age doesn't matter !! Unless you have medical problems. I would bet Leo, would be very happy to have you help !!!
@@martinglaze796 Thanks, I agree with you.. and although i did have a minor stroke in Jan ..no permanent damage except loss of sight in my right eye...and recently broke my left collarbone mountain biking....my biggest obstacle is I'm financially challenged.
At 73 I understand. Lower back is now giving me fits. See a neurosurgeon in bit about it. I use to do this for a living at one time. Living vicariously now.
@@webbtrekker534 Good luck with the Doc...backs can be very tricky. I've read that abdominal exercises are really helpful...helps to strengthen the core, adding support to the back. My stroke also degraded my sense of balance..leading to dumping my mountain bike and forcing me to sell my KLR 650.
I'm 72 and do woodworking every day, but not this kind on the Tally Ho. This is real physical work for the young, strong, flexible, and resilient. I'd last about two hours, and then I'd be in the way. As Clint Eastwood would say: "A man has to know his limitations." But I do wish Leo would do more videos, as he is leaving a lot of TH-cam advertising money on the table.
Leo - You really are developing a great crew and watching is a pleasure . Piece by piece Tallyho is being reborn in front of our eyes ..keep up the good work
Dear Sir.
I'm from Greece and have been following the rebuilding process since the beginning.
I am an industrial automation technician (1970 - 1980)
Computer Engineer, Computer Network Technician (1980 - 2007)
Special Developer (2007 - Today)
There is something that has really caught my interest in your work.
That is why I'm writing these words to you.
You have a great love for what you do, and that is the basis on which you rely.
But the great thing about you is that.
You pay very close attention to your measurements and your drawings.
You do not go (out in the air) but you do very carefully everything you have planned to do.
Paying very close attention to your measurements, counting the very last millimeters in cutting and machining the wood.
Which is very rare for a "wood craftsman"
Well done, you're great and you deserve a lot more than you may have so far.
Continue in this way and with your keen interest in rebuilding the ship "Tally Ho"
I am sure it will be the most beautiful boat ever made.
The attention to millimeter and submillimeter dimensions is common among musical instrument makers. It often feels that the detail work going into the Tally Ho rebuild is at a level of a real luthier!
I so enjoy how Nadine the cook for the party has an avocado tattoo on her arm. Brilliant.
Finn is gonna make a fine shipwright. Good job mate.
Hey Leo, Tally Ho was 109 year old when you started. She is now 110 years old.
Once again an excellent video.
"Also she's got great legs" Ahaha I wasn't expecting that XD
I'm an old bastard - grumpy old machinist bastard - really grumpy and slightly alcoholic - it is so delightful to see youngish folk getting stuck into (with a vengeance) ye old worlde ship building without missing a frikkin beat - yeah the tools may be a little high tech (other than the ancient ship building bandsaw) but these young dudes and dudesses would have done just as well with just old ye worlde hand tools - it gives me great comfort that our young folk could really handle any frikkin thing really they are just as resourceful and resilient - good for you young folk (even the software designers ) I am full of pride and comfort and can die a happy man - anything that starts with - the young people today - is bullshit - you prove that - what a top marvellous bunch of young kids.
Yeah x 2. It's not charming.
@@quentinwyne297 Sorry guys, posted this when I was overwhelmed by a bit of grief after finding out a favourite U tuber - "Aussie 50" at age 33 (young talented guy) had taken his own life - I was trying to express a feeling of great admiration for a group of young people taking on a herculian task and doing a magnificent job with it - I truly seriously admire these guys - I perhaps expressed it in a far too effusive a manner (was effected by the devil's work, inkohol, don't worry not an AA candidate) Apologies and I'll be more measured in my admiration in future. I stand by my comment that Americans are generally not fazed/phased by anything. Cheers (the old guy)
I am a pro faller and buckerman. Never even start a saw without PPE. I have watched a man die from a cut to the femoral artery. I get to take that memory to my grave because of that. Please put em on every time ! ! !
Arnold Rimmer would be proud of that timetable.
Great to see Finn back, full of enthusiasm, great sense of humour.
11:27 so that is what they mean when they talk about elbow grease.
😆😆😆
The lines of this ship are so classic. A real living thing..
I'm imagining how it smells while standing among those frames with so much cut wood.
Take a deep breath and remember this moment well.
I love watching how the crew works together. It's great how the ASA funded Finn to come back. His chainsaw skills are a huge benefit to the process.
Thumbs up for the cook.
For the editor more vids please.
Yeah we can tell she is the cook because she has a avocado and pineapple inked into her skin.
:-)
Tally Ho has really beautiful lines!
Albert Strange not only designed yachts, he was an artist, and headmaster of the Scarborough School of Art.
It's great seeing everyone pitch in and get the work done. Kudos for Leo for his project managing skills. That's a big job keeping work ahead of all the volunteers. She is looking better every video.
I see a big party coming, once the last frame goes in - what a milestone that will be. Soon we will all be able to see Tally Ho's beautiful lines and the last of her old rotting wood gone for good.
This project through Leo and the Albert Strange Association has taken on a life of it's own. It's fascinating to see the meticulous time and energy and care spent on each piece of wood as it is transformed into the bones on the ship. Truly a thing of beauty I'm sure Mr. Strange is simply beaming looking down and see the daily progress that will one day see Tally-Ho afloat and sailing once again. ^_^
This bit of financing by the A.S.A. is truly investing in the future.
Thankfully, Pancho's there to keep those live oak timbers and the boatbuilders all straight and shipshape!
Peace&Love!
Yea, Finn is THE cool guy on the job...
It seems like not only are the crews getting more efficient. But your planning and use of materials is getting much more efficient at the same time.
Wow Leo....thank you, thank you, thank you for saying that about having females come help too, fantastic, no more 50’s for you!! I do believe you are the very first to say that, it’s just so damn amazing! I work on boats, own boats and watch way too many boat building channels, we are out there, thanks for the invite, it means a lot!!
Nena
California
Hi Nena, check out Abbey's blog abbeyboatbuilder.co.uk - she's quite the plank-bender !
Don’t worry about question of “original “ timbers left. We all love restored classic cars without questioning ‘how much steel is original?’ Just great to see the lovingly recreated result
Ok watched every episode, my first comment. Inland (Kansas USA) power boater, never been on a sailboat so have no clue. Who the heck are these grouchy people who give a thumbs down to these videos? Man the patience and skill displayed is fantastic. I wish I was physically able to volunteer and learn but fate has had different ideas for me. That live oak cutting with the bevels/twists is amazing and the purpleheart is gorgeous wood. Always a thumbs up from me!
Leo, what a commendable job of premium leadership. Teaching skills to workers and ----AND getting the job done. Kudos.
Do I smell an nomination for perhaps a Washington Congress seat? We have done hella worse!
It is great to see people returning to further help in the rebuild. This only reflects on you and the project as being awesome!
Great job everyone, the 1950's were very different times. Most of the food people ate they either raised, grew or made themselves, a good cook is essential to the team.
Your editor did a great job of capturing your feel and added great new angles and b-roll! You've done well, but hope he stays on for a while.
Kurt Wheaton Not to mention it saves Leo a huge amount of time he needs to run this great team!
@@cf6282 I haven't seen Kirt on the project, so there is one critical position that HAS to be filled.
@@cf6282 That's truly the takeaway, isn't it?
Great work good to see Finn back again
I agree. I would also have liked to see Thom back again. No mention of Cecca in this video?
@@FlatFifties Maybe someday. Gotta save up the pennies first.
@@thomswift4843 If you ever want to do a Gofundme, be sure to let us know. I'll kick in a few pennies.
@@FlatFifties That's very sweet but the difference between me and Finn is that he's taking active steps to become a boatbuilder, whereas I take a more general interest in cabinet making/carpentry, and am happy to stay within that field. The crowdfunding for Finn, or another boatbuilder via the ASA seems a more honest use of your money.
Then again - @Leo if you wanna buy me a ticket... ;)
Thanks to you and all the guys and girl giving a helping hand 👍👏👏👏 the guy Finn is sure helping out a lot a deserves a special 👏👍 well done. Keep up the good work 🏴
al math thanks for all the love!
Hats off to The ASA! They really hooked up the project with their support.
I see future living legends in the making. An honor and a treat to be able to watch. No wonder Britainia ruled the waves!
Or did we waive the rules?
Britainia ruled the waves! Давно я так не смеялся).
Several other nations and cultures had strong sea fairing histories and boat building abilities. Like Spain, France and Portugal. The chronometer having been invented by a brit is what permitting reliable navigate beyond coastal navigation methods. That was what enabled Britain pass all others to rule the seas by far. Cheers.
@@sailingsolar Я и не спорю. Только не сейчас. Это уже история.
@@user-ye9gv5ey6i Возможно, в другой раз.
Leonyou are a tremendous organizer and leader. Just the stuff of a ships captain. Brilliant!
I am an old sailor and it makes my heart sing to see this wonderful old girl come back to life again.. Leo you are an extraordinary hard-working young shipwright and thank you for sharing the Tally Ho journey.
Wonderful to see a couple of old friends back at it. Finn and Patrick are wonderful at what they do. And the new crew looks like they'll blend right in so far. Best of luck as work progresses. Tally Ho is getting more beautiful each day.
Has been great watching the development of the project - must be very satisfying for those who worked on it to know they helped and have all the first hand sensations of the environment.
Leo please don’t stop making videos about this project as I have watched it from the beginning and feel so involved with it.
Simply amazing job. By the way great edit.
So what would be cool is a second channel that featured uncut videos of various processes. I'd like to watch an uncut video of a frame being cut on the ship saw. That and any other various jobs that are being done.
I like that idea too. Doesn't even have to have dialog...
Or even on this channel. Just start the titles with "UNCUT: ..."
My goodness! I'm sure he's busy enough already unless someone who thinks it's a good idea wants to help with that.
sailingsolar Doesn’t really take any effort to click “upload” on a raw file.
Fully agreed, would love to watch those videos too.
Two best channels on youtube, Tally Ho (Sampson Boat Co) and Arabella.
Agree, they're great but take a look at Dangar Marine for something different. .
@@technologymotion I agree but don't forget "My Self Reliance".
She really is going together like a small military vessel given the spacing of the frames and the live oak you’re using. I think she will outlast us all. Amazing work. 🤓
A complete walk around explaining what has been done so far, and, what’s left to go would be great! Using Tally Ho to show what’s new and what’s left to go!
Go Finn keep us posted on developments, go England 🏴!
Wonderful Leo generating this kind of interest and shows whatever your background or job you can do it
One thing bewilders me...
This is episode 53.
The support Leo engenders is absolutely deserved- I have never been so invested in anything on a screen since Breaking Bad-
So how do 103 people give it a thumbs down ???
Looking at the stacks of planks Leo is working with for just one ship and I cant help but imagine what a shipyard in the 1700's or 1800's. There must have been thousands of stacks of lumber of every imaginable size and type of tree. Must have been astounding to see.
Fascinating as always. You exhibit so many talents beyond boat building. Your people skills are amazing and your willingness to patiently train and delegate is so generous. It must be tough to turn over such exacting tasks to others when their skills at unfamiliar jobs is so important to the long term goal. You are doing so much more than restoring Tally Ho!
I am always amazed at the number of volunteers that decide to sign up. Glad to see that your project is moving forward Leo.
Mfanawemkosi Fakudze It seems to me that more and more people turn up.
It appears that everyone is bringing skills to the boat project and taking new ones away. It can't get any better than that.
Leo and Cecca (and the flexible team), while triggering my own architectural practice in Switzerland, I have been stimulated by projects and websites like "30x40.com", "Acorn to Arabella" and now "Rebuilding Tally ho". I am sure you inspire and stimulate thousands with your drive and determination. Your reflection on "risk" when you cut off the end of your finger (lost the episode number - 40 something?) was a fantastic lesson on the need to "get up, go forward, keep going" and the very real need to shake off risk aversion. More strength to your elbow(s). Ash
Great video, ever so slight difference. Great progress in just a week. I am glad to see Admiral Bluetail still on the job. Must keep the feathers and frames in line. Makes my Saturday. Thank you.
With all the different woods being cut and sanded, I bet that place smells great. Minus all the dude stank of course.
FYI, Lestoil works wonders on getting roofing cement out of clothing, and off of your skin. If you pre-treat the clothes in a 5 gallon pail mixed with water and Lestoil before running through the washing machine, almost all of it will come out. Providing you can stand the smell, it’s a bit strong.
Videographer is a genius. Great lighting, interesting shots, music and editing are phenomenal.
As another of the viewers said earlier, I too, find myself yelling "Tally Ho!" every time you release a new video. Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing the culmination of your efforts.
Well done Albert Strange Association. Good luck and welcome to the new (and not so new) motley crew. Great atmosphere and brilliant project.
Such amazing weather you are having at present. Good to see you are making the most of it, great episode guys.Cheers
Your title said "Crew." Man, I really had my hopes up that you were getting ready to sail already and that this was possibly a seamanship training vid. Possibly some of these wonderful folks will be back next year as members of that "crew." I really love biweekly Saturdays and your latest videos, Leo. Cheers!
When you're so good with a chainsaw a croudfunding project sends you on a flight back
Good to see you back. Blessings on you all.
Looking forward to the bow taking shape.
Coming along nicely.
A song last video inspired me to track the group 'Wandering Jane' ( from Scotland) down and buy their CD. It just arrived and now I think about Tally Ho when I hear it. Thanks.
I so enjoy watching the building process. Takes me back to my youth when I did this for a living.
Enjoy watching videos of rebuilding wooden sailboat ⛵️! 😀⛵️😀 Mike from Missouri
Love the progress through learning on the job... Tally Ho is taking shape again, and nicely at that! Great Crew, great footage and editing! Thanks to all of you and LEO! ⛵️
I've loved all of the videos to date, but this one is charming beyond all. That being said, watch that up and coming yard master setting the hands to their tasks. I'm looking to come up this winter when the help is hard to find, and throw a few days or the project.
I see that you managed to collect an impressive array of tools and machinery over time!
Great to see it all coming together. The parrot is a nice touch.
Thanks!
Wicked to see Finn back on the tools!!!
I'm looking at the closing shots with Leo talking to camera and the new frames in the ascendant - What a great sight. It's not just the skill and the work rate that is so admirable - It's the sheer determination - I reckon Leo could rule the world if that's what he decided to do! Brilliant brilliant project - there still a long way to go but this is starting to look so good.
I love the way this has become a truly international project.
So much fun to view. I imagine Sampson building many more wonderful boats with the same 'volunteer' rubric. Good for Sampson. Good for volunteers. Good for boats.
the good parrot did its duty watching the "live oak stack dry" well done parrot!
Once again such a wonderful feast of activity. Great team, great skills....especially the editing....Good on ya. Well done all...thanks me hearty's....
Seeing Finn back on-board for the second framing is awesome. He brings a humorous vibe back with him.
since the frames have to be cut with angles they come in distinctly left and right handed pairs, but I'm sure if I were doing this build I'd end up with more left than right or vise versa, glad you've figured out how to do it right !!!
Always awesome! Again
Leo, so proud of you for what you are doing. I really enjoyed your last rib raising party, looking forward to this one, Deb.
Always an anticipated video. Thanks Leo
Ever closer to planking....😁
Thanks for the video. 👍
I've been watching this whole process. Love it.
Great progress, great video. Thank you.
History in the making restoration of tally ho.
It's a joy watching this team and captain make progress. Love this boat, love the series, hope I get to help some day, some way. Tally Ho!
As you publish each new episode it becomes apparent that your acquisition of the saw (Ep 22) if not required nonetheless has allowed the pace of the project to speed up significantly. In retrospect, a very wise decision to acquire it. I always enjoy watching it in action. Thanks for the uploads Leo and a viewer's thanks to all who are helping...
I couldn't imaging the amount of work that goes into building a boat of this size, plenty of helpers comes in handy, I love carpentry and know how much time even a simple project takes.
Great to see so many young boat builders! Keep it up and God Bless!
Thank you Leo and crew for another great video. Hope the weather holds clear and warm and the sea gods smile on you.
Great Tally Ho Team effort. You guys are all gold!
