EPISODE 89.
Well, what IS Pete doing?!
In the last video we got to know part of the crew a little better, and now it’s time to learn a bit more about Pete Stein’s story. We start the New Year by taking his boat out for a sail with the whole crew, before getting back into planking Tally Ho. In between cutting out and hanging planks, Pete shows us his own workshop and tells us a bit about his train-riding days, including a pretty wild accident that changed his life for ever.
In other news, drills are broken, rivets are peened, Pancho enjoys the staircase, and Rosie receives a large box of Shipwright’s tools from a local legend.

89. “Hey Pete, what are you doing?!” (Rebuilding Tally Ho / EP89)

[@SedatedandRestrained]

I legitimately had no idea Pete had prosthetics, Leo's quible about stepping on his toes earlier in the video made no sense til that explanation. Pete is truly an enigma!

[@crustycurmudgeon2182]

Yeah, me too: "NOW I get it!"

[@twokharacters]

I always thought he had some crazy skinny ankles lol, but still had no suspicion that he had prosthetics. He's even more incredible than I thought! And yea I had to scratch my head at the stepping on toes too.

[@gaylespencer6188]

Riding freight trains over a 5-year period, and surviving, is a bit of luck. Sorry you didn't have a full supply of it given the situation with the legs. Stobe rode trains longer and was skilled at it. But his luck ran out in Nov. 2017. We miss Jim Stobie.

[@johnmusterman2930]

Yes blew my mind too. Never had thought about it, but it is kind of fitting now that i know about it. Did anyone else think that it is amazing how much character he has ?

[@wesmerald]

As a construction foreman on a school gymnasium build, I once worked with a man who "walked funny", but never thought anything of it until one day he called to me for some help. He was 18 feet up an extension ladder when one of his prosthetic legs fell off. Once he'd reattached the dropped leg, he was right back to business as usual. Of course, he later explained how he's lost his feet. An unfortunate slip while riding railcars. Had I known about his prosthetics beforehand, I know that as his foreman I would have sought to limit his activities to what I personally thought suitable to his condition. The ladder incident served a great lesson for me about allowing others to set their own limitations. Thanks for sharing your story Pete.

[@nickparker3446]

That leg reveal was the biggest "What the WTF?" moment I've had since "I am your father" in Empire Strikes Back. Outstanding cinema.

[@kssarh]

I've never seen Pete as happy as when talking about his shop. I hope the exposure helps drive more work his way once this project is complete.

Greetings Tally Ho from Scotland. Must admit when I first saw Pete on the Western Flyer channel I wasnae really sure if he fitted, I mean right away you could tell his shipwright skills were something else but the nose ring and the tatoos made him stand out...However over time watching the Flyer and then with Leo I came to see him as a really good guy. However this episode has humbled me and taught me a powerful lesson, Never make your mind up about someone on the first shout. Pete is not jist good, He is Great. Truly an inspiration. Thank you so much for this episode

[@Enkil01]

the best of us, humanity right here on a KZbin channel.

[@rogjackson]

Yeah that's right. There's the boat, and it's history which is fascinating. Leo's story is a big part of it. But there's also the stories of the workers, the builders, in this case Pete. I never realized he had any issues with his legs. I guess, really, he doesn't.

[@NOELTM]

There's something about this episode that sums up the whole essence of rebuilding Tally Ho, the yacht and the people connected to it. Great!

I LOVE that Pete has been on your channel for so long and this is the first time you have mentioned his feet. He is a talented shipwright who happens to have no feet, not an amputee who has found a vocation within his physical abilities!

I love this channel. The simple fact that this wasn't mentioned til now makes me love it all the more. It simply wasn't a thing.

[@canyonhaverfield2201]

Loose both feet..take on new feats ! No ones mentioned Pete's dry sense of humor, his facial control.. the lip curl, roll of the eyes, and the toss of the head.. Hey Pete, I'm thinking your issues collecting daily droppings in your boot could be cleverly solved by wearing gators..maybe self made from all the coffee bags floating about Town..luv ya

What an incredible episode!! If there has been any discussion about how much original material is left on Tally Ho, know this; your vessel had been re-infused with character and soul 50 times over, from the men and woman rebuilding her, to the animals who see over her, to the community who watch and support this project! DD

[@frederickstibbert7389]

Tally Ho has lost almost all her original material. Today's episode made me realize, we've also lost almost all her history as well - the stories of those who built & sailed her. Gotta wonder if Stowe & Son had a shipyard dog !

[@ВладЦебеш]

Pete doesn't have a right leg? OMG! Pete is a real American. I am Russian and I respect him very much for his hard work, modesty, simplicity and humor. If everyone was just a little bit like Pete, the world would be a much better place. Thank you Leo for showing us Pete. Hello from Russia.

[@paulcooper2897]

I get it Pete! When in the midst of doing a task, having someone ask you what you are doing means stopping, mentally noting what step you are at, rewinding, explaining it all, then resuming your progress and making sure you didn't miss a small detail. That moment to make sure you can resume leaves a pause easily taken as "grumpy" ... being that person myself, I see it as someone putting their entire focus into their work. Thanks for sharing!

[@327365hp]

I noticed right away that Pete was a doer and not an explainer. He has gotten a lot better at talking to the camera!

[@ciberbri59]

Spot on

[@robm.4512]

Yup, right with Pete on that one too. As a precision machinist and race engine builder I used to work late hours, 12 midday to 10pm or later. That way I'd get at least 5 hours at the bench with the doors closed and no phone going. Everyone was a bunch happier that way 'cause they didn't have to put up with me getting frustrated and grumpy every time I was interrupted. Two of my guys liked working early and leaving early, the other couple were made my way and simply didn't like humans in the morning anyway. We got along that way just fine....Had to train new customers a bit though🤨🤣

[@thecanadiantradesman7916]

I went through a very similar injury as Pete although I was able to keep my legs and it was Vehicles not a train but I am now made of medical grade steel covered with my own flesh from my waist down. The doctors said I may never walk again but I now with lots of encouragement and support 2 yaers after and 14 years later am still doing what I did before the accident and it also has made me the person I am now. I tell people all the time its all a mind set and if you think you can't then you won't. Although I live with daily pain and discomfort it's a constant reminder that I can and hearing Pete's story it's a great comfort knowing I share somewhat a connection with a very talented and passionate tradesman. Keep pushing on and know you can.

Generosity. I watch this channel because it’s relaxing, satisfying, and it makes sense of a crazy world. I now realize I’m learning what generosity is. Thanks Jake, and thank you Leo, for teaching the world how to think differently.

[@benjimankirven3971]

Thanks for the "human touch" to the last few videos. Always good to see the personalities and stories behind the work. BTW, good job on some new kinds of shots. Some camera angles and perspectives of the boat and shop that we haven't seen before. Good to see that you guys do take some time out to recharge your batteries.

[@cf6282]

Quality of the footage is very high i think too!

[@trythinking6676]

I love Pete. Would really enjoy buying the man a beer and solving the worlds problems.

[@simvrod]

What a great team. Pete got to become a teacher as he is very good at explaining once he gets going.😎

[@edfroelich6528]

Hey Leo, you should sell "Hey Pete, what you doing" Tee shirts. Would help support the build and bring a bit of a laugh into the story.

[@treeeson]

I would buy one ... or two ... or three, Leo!

[@jservice6594]

I really enjoyed how proud and happy Pete was to show us his shop.

[@KoJo-qh9od]

I like the humility of the group of workers you have been fortunate enough to bring together. It's easy to work with folks like them. Poncho seems to be the only one strutting for the camera. Thanks

Stumbled across this channel a couple weeks ago, just caught up today, I’ve been binge watching every second I get! Best channel on KZbin!!!!!!!

[@rklmbd2934]

Lol having done the same in a similar span of time I know what you mean! 🙂

[@christianschmitz3914]

Pete - I like when you say: 'I am proud of myself'. Great guy you are! You can very much be proud of yourself!

[@wornoutwrench8128]

I'm sitting on my couch grumbling at the crap weather we have been having lately ( I live on Vancouver Island, not to terribly far away from where Leo and Tally Ho are situated) I get a bit depressed during the winter months. The long dark days, the wind and rain. Puts me in a bit of a mood. So decided to watch a few youtubes and see what is going on in the rest of the world, maybe I can find something to cheer me up. Well hell. Mission accomplished.

[@mrmugga11]

I too live on southern Vancouver Island and found this episode to be my favorite yet. Tally Ho and Arabella...It's not a week without both

[@wornoutwrench8128]

@@mrmugga11 Have you found Travels with Geordie yet, the other Pete is pretty good too. He is from Victoria

[@nothandybutcheap2086]

Pete seems like a cool guy to have a beer with lol

[@bushratbeachbum]

Absolutely, homebrew ale, wine, spirits and others on offer if they pass by this way. Id love to hear all of their stories

[@trcmf]

Best channel on KZbin. Thanks for sharing your adventure.

[@medbam33]

Pete is still the man, even if he is no feet Pete. What about that smile Pete had when he was in his shop.

[@chiefnotoes]

Hey Pete, I'm a double amputee as well. I feel like we have the same attitude. Some people think it makes us weak but, I think it is what makes us strong! I love the videos even more now.

[@jemakrol]

THANK YOU! For everything! It's just so much more than a brief clip on 'the tube'. It's like joining the family. Being part of it. And it's a wonderful family too. I can't really remember how I ended up here but I don't regret it for a second! I just love everything about it. The handcraft, the boat, the pets, the people, the music, the modest and proud (rightfully so!) storytelling... everything! Thanks for including me in this!

[@gordonclark7632]

This episode was so full off surprises that it almost made me cry, especially the gift of tools as a pass on to those who want to keep this trade alive.

[@bobw222]

" I cried because I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet." Helen Keller... Imagine how much better the world would be if we all had a Pete in our lives.

[@hehted]

Thanks Just thinkin. We really do not know, whatever our condition, just how lucky we are. And Leo, always knew Laconic Pete was special. Keep this episode. Save it, share it. It's beautiful,

[@bobw222]

@@hehted I know how lucky I am. I got fed up with New York state and moved to New Orleans. First doctor I saw didn't like some test results, and 3 weeks later I was in the hospital having the first 18 inches of my colon removed due to colon cancer. That doctor referred to me as "Lucky Bob." I was out of work for about 1 1/2 weeks, returned for 1/2 days, then full days and slept through lunches. No Chemo, and no cancer since. That was in Fall of 2007. That is the very short version of what happened.

[@mullet_johnson2840]

Pete you're amazing

[@gjordan456]

Go get em pete, I see a kindred spirit, I pretty much started the same way, hitch hiking and riding freight cars across our country, not running but looking for a place to fit in, I started on the west coast and ended up in New England where the rich maritime history captured my imagination, 50 years later I’m still here and loving it!!
