Stunners… elegance on the water. Spirit Yatchs are keeping this breed alive in Great Britain.

There is absolutely nothing prettier than a Gil Smith transom! Nicely done. My neighbor in Sayville, LI, NY had one of the last Gil Smith boats built in the early 30s, a 30fter, that I watched him singlehandedly restore and occasionally served as his gopher as a grade schooler in the mid-60s. It was simply gorgeous - unfortunately he sold it in the early 70s to someone who didn’t know how to take care of it and it was gone by 1975.

A piece of context here: Peter Webb & Todd French managed the large boat program at the Landin School in 85/86 and supervised the construction of ALERION to the Hart collection plans. It was perhaps even more arduous than building under LR survey. Everything had to be as it was originally--including building a mould for every frame, and steam bending a massive freshly cut white oak stem. The mould took too long, actually everything did. The stem split--I remember at least twice. Finally Hart relented and allowed a laminated stem. The boat was not completed in an academic year, so it was moved to Stu Gillam's shop in K'port and the final launch was beautiful. Peter and Todd were very good teachers, and excellent shipwrights, and I cannot think of a more qualified team to carry out the Marilee project. If I were them I would be thrilled beyond belief.

The boats in NE Harbor are absolutely stunning. However there is one that is red on one side a green on the other. It makes it very confusing when you’re racing. Where tf did that red boat come from and where th did the green boat go?

I grew up sailing Flying Dutchmans on Great South Bay where we would run into old Gil Smith boats. We'd be soaking wet out on our trapezes, carefully keeping our boats level, while they were dry, stable and fast. It used to make me think that somehow we were in the wrong boats.

What kind of wealth was the boat built with? and ditto rebuilt with? At the time of design and build, were women involved? Asking for history trail

That is one impressive launch! Thank you for posting. Looks like around 9-11 knots of speed. How many miles per cord?(of wood) LOL!

why does he text narration say the lead ballast was installed after the glass sheathing when we can see it went on first?

Beautiful. But the owner trashed it by distressing all that exquisite wood and craftsmanship. Absolute travesty. Money buys a lot of things; it doesn't buy brains.

Truly an undertaking by the Elite from concept to completion. Cudos also for the producer of this film. By the looks of the credits at the end, it seems as if the pedigree of those involved didn't include many if any "Robber Barons". How refreshingly aspirational!

Wow. I'm about to start building a Somes Sound 12 1/2, but instead of lapstrake, I'm going to strip plank it, and now that I see your deck... you've raised the bar, and it's beautiful. What kind of timber are you using for the deck and for the coaming?

Beautiful! Was the fiberglass applied to just the outside? Why not the inside? Wouldn't this cause the fiberglass to peal away over time? Thanks.

Went aboard the Sequoia at Norshipco in Norfolk during the 80's and witnessed her long and agonizing decline at the Va. shipyard and her departure by barge. Quite an operation. She deserves her restoration in Maine.

Gentlemen. As one who was exposed to the nearly hypnotic joy of sailing several years ago. The sound of the breeze through the rigging, the slap of wave against hull, the spray, or challenge of a well executed upwind tack. This video was tonic to the soul. From the wonderfully done workmanship of a beautiful restoration to the scenes of racing seamanship. I would love to be part of a 'blue water' cruise of several days aboard Marilee. That would be the best thing this side of heaven. Thank you for a wonderful video, the hard well done work ( labor not in vain) and, the moments of joyful memories stirred of overnight trips aboard a 32' Sloop on the Great Lakes. Fair winds and following seas gentlemen.

thank you so much for your beautiful way of wording very familiar sensations. Had a small (just shy of 10 meter) sailboat, main sheet with a gaff, no boom, and a jib... not a racing boat by all means, but the pleasures she gave me are hard to describe. all wood, sailed in the upper Italian Tyrrhenian sea, sailed to North-East Corsica and Sardinia, down to Ischia and Ventotene Islands, way to Capri and as far South to Amalfi, then back to Giannutri and Giglio islands, wintering twice in Porto Santo Stefano (Tuscany's Argentario promontory), back to Elba & Capraia Islands, then always stopping in the Lerici or Portovenere area before returning to Santa Margherita/Portofino. Hole month sailing in August, mid '70s... still dreaming about it.

@@claudiotagini Thank you so much for sharing your captivating story. I can only imagine the beautiful places and wonderful scenery that your eyes beheld. I have long dreamed of seeing places along the Mediterranean coast of Italy. Visiting faraway places in that area. Sampling the foods. Tying up to a dock, dropping anchor in a picturesque bay and going into a town for food and supplies. Meeting people. That would be wonderful. Thank you for sharing that beautiful memory.
