I am a master mariner, gaining my certificate in Hong Kong in 1970 with the Hong Kong harbour authorities in a very stiff series of written, practical & verbal tests. All my father's side of my family have been mariners from at least my G G Grandfather. To me, shipwrights are the top of the tree where joinery is concerned. To watch these young guys, masters of their trade utilize it & produce this picture of perfection still has me in awe even now @ 73 years of age. I salute each & every one of you, BRAVO she is beautiful a credit to you all. 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Building a construction that is curved in all planes is a whole other ball game than house construction. You really have to be Sharp and focused. Great job and heritage preservation! Western Norway sits on a unbroken chain of craftmanship of wooden boat building, handed down from shipsmith to apprentice over at least 1500 years.
@robwhite461 Жыл бұрын
Absolutely wonderful. Very heartening seeing young men that have learnt and are carrying on the heritage traditions. This video is particularly good because it shows the many techniques of wooden boat building in this one short film. It’s one of the best I’ve seen for that.

This is absolutely mind boggling. The fact that the original plan came out of someone’s mind and the builders had no where near the modern tools that these folks had. The men that restored this had pieces to mimic but that doesn’t take anything away from their skill set! They were phenomenal! What a great watch!

Sadly, now kids go to public school and learn nothing at all then they go to college and learn nothing at all. As an employer, I have people walking in my door all the time with college degrees and they can’t even write their name or do basic math. Sad state of affairs in America today.
