EPISODE 93
Okay, we have a lot of BIG news! These developments only really happened yesterday, so this is fresh off the press, and I was up all night finishing this video.
It seems we might have resolved our issues with the county, but we are going to have to make some big changes - which will be very challenging, exciting, and hopefully positive in the long run!
Also - Rosie has her own exciting news, Pete tells us what he's doing, Rowan tries to remember what he's doing, and chickens get incarcerated.

93. County Problem Solved?! / Goodbye Rosie - (Rebuilding Tally Ho EP93)

[@SampsonBoatCo]

I know some people would have liked to see me fight the county to the bitter end. Just remember that I also have to think about the owners of this property, and my top priority is to avoid bringing undue stress and responsibility onto them. The County's reputation has suffered enough from this ordeal - I have nothing else to prove, and I'd rather get on with my work in peace. Furthermore, I am now convinced that this move (inevitable at some point) is going to be a really great thing for the project and channel in the long run! Addressing the other important concern - Don't worry, I think Pancho will be spending some time with us wherever we end up!

[@moonshine3333]

You just can't leave Pancho ... who's going to inspect your work? 😊😊😊

[@philleasthouse3791]

I still don’t understand how one person can cause all this. It makes me sad given how awesome this project is. If I lived next door I would pull up a lawn chair and watch this show live. Leo is a very talented individual and no matter what will get this done. The future is bright.

[@aserta]

Simple. Loud people get the most attention (as the saying goes "yell loud enough, someone will come see what it's all about"). It just so happens that this time around, it aligned with the corrupt local government who, when they saw that there's potential to steal more money from the people, as all politicians and people in power do these days, instantly jumped on the opportunity. Frankly, i've seen this happen one time too many. It's a shame, that around the world, we've come to be ruled around by individuals who took office, not because of their achievements, or by the recognition of others, rather, because they were the smarter thief, cleverer wolf, in dog's skin, around the sheep.

[@steveb2739]

There are always people who feel like they are on the outside looking in. Some of them become bitter and rail against the happiness and purpose others seem to find effortlessly. The truly sad thing is, they only have to ask to be included and more often than not, it can happen. Some of the most magical words in any language are "Can I help?"

[@captaintoyota3171]

[@daveincanada4794]

Leo nailed it: the move would have to happen sooner or later, so by moving sooner he can remove a distraction that has dogged this project. The move will become yet another interesting chapter in this story. The rebuilding of Tally Ho has been a great tonic in an otherwise soul-withering year. When Tally Ho finally launches, I'd love to be there in person! What a party that would be!

[@PaulMurrayCanberra]

Leo is, by any reasonable definition of the term, a master boatbuilder. That doesn't mean "best boatbuilder ever", it means - well - this. One of the important responsibilities of any master craftsman is to turn out apprentices. So it's wonderful to see Rosie move on and progress her career. It's what ought to be happening.

[@multihullminion9201]

These are some of the most thoughtful words in this whole thread. The expansion of conciousness manifested in creativity, and the ways of any craft from people from different walks of life is a big part of benevolence in humanity. Passing it all down or handing it over makes it all worthwhile

[@TheRickpfarr]

Leo before the big move it would be so nice to meet your wonderful hosts, so the community could thank them for their generosity and patience while supporting this historic restoration!

[@gav2759]

Well what have we learned in from this instalment? That in a country full of lawyers, a resolution to the County situation would emerge by engaging a good one?...Nope. That Rosie is talented and motivated enough to be given a shipwrights job?...not really, we could all see that. That the planking was a tour de force? nah that's been obvious for weeks. No, what we have learned is, cordless planers are a really good idea.

[@Avboden]

It really sucks having to move the project and losing access to the workshop so close to the boat, but in the end being in Port Townsend in a shipyard will give you so much better access and time of day to finish everything. Too bad the county is losing such a historic project, but their loss!

[@anotherdrummer2]

Spoiler alert!

[@moritzschmid9613]

Thats what I figured I think leo would totally be on board if the county said we want to use your project to create some good publicity for the county. And also some good online PR. Because the county is know for its boat building history. So to have a local project of some young lads and gals who restore a sailing yacht in someone's backyard to preserve an old ship and its story. I don't think there could be better PR for that county if they make a video with Leo and show their support online.

I think it would have been better to move the "Karen" out of the neighborhood...

[@waynemapp6333]

Yes, I agree Port Townsend will be better for the completion of the project. I suspect there is a quite bit more to the county dispute than just the one neighbour who has publicly complained. In these situations it is common for several other people to also complain without wishing to be identified.

[@jakeeasterwood3204]

I’m happy to hear that this seems to be working out with the county government. I worked in a county government for 15 years. We had our county officials who worked for the good of the community... and also a few others that worked at being the best jerks they possibly could. It sounds like you may have finally found the ones that are not the latter. Your rescue of this historic boat should be a community effort. Nothing gives a local community more pride than coming together to support a historic and worthwhile project like you are doing with the Tally Ho. It appears that you are surrounded, with the exception of a very few, by just that caliber of neighbors.

[@GodOfBiscuits66]

As a Rosie fan, I am over the moon that she found that she liked doing this so much that she decided to make it a career. I wish her all the best! So 2 years before the boat gets moved Leo? LOL

[@adventure002006]

It is mind boggling that a County is forcing a move of one of the most incredible restorations on one of the most beautiful ships in the World. This vessel will be going on to international fame, and this County's contribution was to kick it out of the County!! Here in BC Canada, towns and cities will go to great lengths to attract people, the largest fishing rod, the largest tree, and here this County has one of the most incredible Gems on this planet and they are saying go!!. How about instead the Country invest in barrier between them and the neighbor who is complaining, or offer him gift card for few days hotel in town a month in compensation. How about instead of trying to end this project they shout from the top of the highest hill about this incredible journey of restoration.

[@David-hm9ic]

Leo, I was talking to someone about buying rough timber from him and we were discussing live oak. I told him that I was watching a KZbin yacht restoration and he said, "Oh, yeah, Tally HO! It's really been fun watching Rosie's skills develop and I'm sorry to see her go but count me in among those subscribing to Western Flyer .

And GO ROSIE!!!!! Such a well deserved move. Best to you Rosie as you continue to learn and grow.

[@williwaizenegger3853]

Congratulations and good luck to Rosie. I know she'll do great. Also, I know I'll miss Poncho and her comic relief moments after the project gets moved to the new location. And, no doubt, she will miss Leo and all the activity.

An important evolution of the project is taking place! Change is good, even if it's hard. Here's to change * * I'm reminded of a quote, "Without change something sleeps inside us, and seldom awakens...”

Good luck Rosie! Guys, it simply looks lovely! Sent a little $$ to help with the project and the move!

[@marklenz7065]

During World War II here in the U.S. a young lady riveter, Rosie the Riveter", became the role model for women in the factory war effort. Maybe just maybe this Rosie will inspire young ladies to consider going into the fulfilling careers associated with woodworking. Carpentry, framing, remodeling, and boat building! I will be following her exploits and sharing her story with young women in non-traditional careers at our college.

Fantastic outcome Leo. I knew that the right approach to resolve this issue. I'm glad the public support helped influenced the county. I'm happy for Rosie's advancement to a paid job in Port Townsend. You maybe interested to know in the e-mail that I sent to county one of things I stressed was the benefit that this project had in helping develop the skills of volunteer interns like Rosie. To me, Rosie's development with the TALLY HO project is evidence that this project has provided a unique opportunity in the marine industry sector of Washington state that would not be readily available elsewhere. I stressed that it is the type of entrepreneurial project that builds industries in regions that face major challenges in attracting new investment and new businesses and the county should be doing everything in its power to support new business start ups. It's disappointing to know that you will have to move TALLY HO to Port Townsend Boat Yard before completing all the work. That would have been a better option and I would encourage the county to rethink the time-line of when the move has to take place. Giving Leo and his team to complete almost everything at the present location will be a major advantage and one has to remember that the amount of dust and noise will drop considerably after the upper deck is installed and the interior work begins. In my view it will be a bigger feather in the county's cap to see TALLY Ho leave the county when it is finished except for things like the construction and installation of the mast and the rigging, which will have to be done in the Port Townsend Boat Yard, as well as the final treatment of the exterior of the hull. One last word: good luck with your career Rosie. It's nice to have met you.

[@grahambaker9377]

well done Rosie on your new job, you will be an asset to how ever employs you .Best of luck for the future.

This turned out to be an excellent feel good movie.

It’s great to see the planks almost finished. Tally Ho is getting closer and closer to sailing away. A boy’s dream of building a boat and saving an old boat from the scrapyard is coming to fruition. Congratulations to Leo and his team.

[@TheDuckman02050]

If only all clients could be as reasonable and intelligent I might have stayed in the legal field. Kudos on how you have handled the nonsense from the county and your neighbor. So glad you will get the chance to get the boat structurally sound before moving. Looking forward to the stages to come.

[@PaulDeCamp]

The boat has to have been moved eventually in any circumstance. Being at peace with the neighbors and the authorities is best for any project. In the end when you are settled in your new lodgings, you will say it was all for the good.

[@autopatch]

It’s the authority’s job to be supportive, and it’s the nosy neighbor’s job to stop abusing personal relationships with a government employee and mind their own darned business.

[@marcryvon]

@@autopatch There's a darn Karen everywhere now. As a sorry neighbor and, worst, in public offices too. Scary !

[@fourthpanda]

I think part of the reason we all tuned into this project was because of the aesthetics of it all, so I hope it stays the same level of "homegrown" that we all have come to know and love once the boat has to move. Much love Leo.

[@kaecycorbin6399]

Rosie fan here! Congrats Rosie, and I'll be watching that project now, thanks to you. :)

[@JRD77VET]

Fantastic news on how the lawyers were able to get the county to find a compromise. Congrats to Rosie too, it sad to see her go but great she learned enough to get a paying job. Onward towards the whiskey plank , Cheers. Jeff

[@StevenCampbell1955]

Good Lawyers have stepped up to help TALLY HO. Thank those professionals.

[@petermuller4322]

I am always amazed about Leo‘s calm and at all times extreme polite way of talking about difficulties or in this case with the County sensitive mattes. I am sure that besides the legal and supporter‘s support a big factor to reaching the amicable agreement was Leo himself. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@stephenfoxall9655]

Knowing that Tally Ho will be moved I thought I would look back to EPs 2&3. Wow! Knowing what was to come I trembled . Few people could have considered the task. Very, very few would have got very far bearing in mind you carried the total risk. I guess that you have edited out the trough of despair days but they are just about visible in those early days. I am just gobsmacked and so full of awe. The filming so improved. Progress ever moving forwards. Probably one of the best ongoing videos on KZbin. After fairing I guess that excitement will return for you Leo.

[@oldschool6345]

That was an abrupt end to planing....almost shocking really. Glad to hear the county may have realized they stepped on their own toes. Even though you have to move sooner, amenable terms are much less stressful, and the project doesn't get stalled in legal land. Congratulations on the agreement. Congratulations to Rosie, that's a great achievement. Thanks for sharing.

[@gordonstewart8258]

Congratulations, Rosie. We'll miss you.

[@JustMe-pp1mp]

Yeah Rosie ! Good luck girl, all the best. T'was fun watching you develop your skills and now you get tot put them to good use.

[@rpeter46]

Congratulations, Rosie! We'll miss your warm personality and craftsmanship on these videos.

[@tbonerox2806]

I am a fabricator in Minneapolis, I wanted to say... Rose, you are a gem and I wish you all of the luck. Watching you as a part of this project has been wholesome to say the least. We love you and best of luck!
