How a Ptarmigan is born ....not the bird, the boat out of the shed

[@scottastell9415]

The Ptarmigan looks awesome. Thanks Paul for video.

[@SailingKateLouise]

My pleasure, yep it's a great boat, should be sailing in a couple of weeks, cheers Paul

[@jamessandman3708]

That was awesome! I love seeing these old style wooden boats. Thanks for sharing that Paul and as always, cheers mate!! ⛵⛵⛵

[@SailingKateLouise]

My pleasure James, cheers Paul

[@dandom71]

What a great facility for these guys to get together and build these boats.

[@SailingKateLouise]

Yes and there should be more of them, thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@paulgoodwin1201]

Wish we had a club like that in Cornwall England

[@SailingKateLouise]

@@paulgoodwin1201 It's basically a men's shed for boaties.... I don't know if they have men's sheds in the U.K.

[@ferfernando950]

I want to be like them when i grow old!! Such a great idea to restore and build such beauties. I always thought it would be great to build my own boat, but i lack the time right now in my late 40´s but im definitively decided to do it when i retire. Wonderful and inspiring video! Thanks so much!

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks Fer. Yes there aren't many p[laces where you can go and be part of a team restoring and building boats. Great for social wellbeing and great camaraderie. Thanks again for watching, cheers Paul

[@paulgoodwin1201]

Wot a lovely boat

[@SailingKateLouise]

Yes the Selway Fisher Ptarmigan is very nice and Steve's build is perfection. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@andypandy955]

These places are so important for the elderly especially men with the same mind set. It does so much to build friendships and help with mental health I take my hat off to the guys amazing teamwork amazing men. I wish I live in Australia to meet and work with these people so impressive. | Thanks Paul for sharing this video. I work on my own trying to get my boat ready for the water and wish I had this kind of support invaluable. To the guys a message you are a credit.

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks Andy, yes they meet every Tuesday and Thursday and for many it's the highlight of their week....probably also gives their wives a break. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@jasonstork9606]

Great choice of music for the final extraction from the shed. The boat looks amazing.

[@SailingKateLouise]

Hi Jason hopefully it will hit the water next week, cheers Paul

[@SailingKateLouise]

Please leave a comment and I will reply. Thanks for watching and check out my other videos on the playlist kzbin.info/aero/PLPB_l0btIVRX5ubKs-CUtQSEfvKLAmtgL

[@jimalexander8734]

Good to see the guys fixing up the great looking boats

[@SailingKateLouise]

Yep and they have a lot of fun doing it, cheers Paul

[@topazbill8876]

I'm not a boat builder either Paul, but I admire and respect all those that are. Your video productions are of the highest order, the time and effort that you put in are greatly appreciated. 👍⛵

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks mate for your support, cheers Paul

[@markgallagher1376]

What a beautiful job they did on the ptarmigan!! And I think the Hartley 16 is such a cute little boat. I love seeing them on the show. Thanks for showing us the boat shop again.

[@SailingKateLouise]

No worries and thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@davesmith9600]

Very nice job Paul.

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks mate, cheers Paul

[@olivei2484]

Great looking boat projects.

[@SailingKateLouise]

We need more sheds like this, thanks for again watching, cheers Paul

[@stevep5819]

Thanks for being here to video the big day and Thus Spake Zaranthustra was the perfect music! Today is the first time it's been back out of the carport because it's just been too windy to work on rigging and, if I'm honest, the wind was the perfect excuse to take some time off after a near solid 18 months! So it' will be a few more weeks yet as the wind still isn't really obliging

[@SailingKateLouise]

Hi Steve Yep I talked to Bill today and he said it wouldn't be this Thursday. But I might come up anyway and Iv Bill and maybe yourself if you are there or at your place. I'll txt you, cheers Paul

[@neilhenderson5782]

Unusual method for reversing the trailer + boat out of the shed, but it worked with no scrapes.

[@SailingKateLouise]

Yep the robot was amazing, thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@ianbell5611]

Brilliant video Thank you. Cheers

[@SailingKateLouise]

Glad you enjoyed it, cheers Paul

[@davelawrence6777]

Thanks for posting such an interesting video Paul i have absolutely no talent for thst type if work but really appreciate those who do cheers

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks Dave, yes I'd love to build a boat one day, Thanks again for watching, cheers Paul

[@Antipodean33]

Lovely little boat, they scored a very nice piece for the transom. I wish we had something like this down here in South Oz, maybe should try and get something happening down the old Port Adelaide way

[@SailingKateLouise]

I thought Goolwa had a big boating tradition....not sure how far that is from you. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@stevep5819]

Mate, when I got the shipment of ply for the build the first thing I did was to go through the lot and pick the best patterned piece for the transom

[@davidmccauley7068]

"It's sort of a robot... I think" 😂

[@SailingKateLouise]

Yep, blue tooth to remote and built in battery, good for gradient up to 10 %. It would be great manoeuvring a caravan into a carport. Thanks again for watching, cheers Paul

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

You should take a look at a Swedish channel RAN sailing husband and wife world sailors decided to build their own 50ft wood cored boat .. built the hull upside down then had to take it out of the barn and turn it over ...just the two of them. Its nerve racking and you can tell hes a very focused guy. You guys built a really nice boat and beautifully. finished though.. Men with sheds is a solid gold concept.. especially with things like comunity progrcts and getting younsters involved.

[@SailingKateLouise]

I agree totally Clive, thanks for watching and I will check out that channel, cheers Paul

[@E_Hex]

Great vid and lovely boat. I love the grey/blue stripe colour! Are you able to share what it is (brand and colour)?

[@SailingKateLouise]

I love the gray to, I'll ask Steve if you email me, I can reply [e-mail] cheers Paul

[@christopherfry2844]

SKL is a serious improvement of KZbin. Apart from Starship news, KZbin is a pretty dreary medium. The Rathmines ships will not sail to Mars. Yer the spirit is the same. To build a ship to sail to somewhere. Does it matter where? Not really. Thanks Paul!

[@SailingKateLouise]

Thanks Chris for watching, cheers Paul

[@sailoutofagarage6212]

Very nice, how is the finance arranged, member fee or other?

[@SailingKateLouise]

Member fee and contributions, cheers Paul

Hate being a troll with old English words. I know by mils you were referring to millimeters, but a mil is 1/1000 of an inch, which would make 20 mils a tiny bit over 1/2 a millimeter, and 30 mils just over 3/4s of a millimeter I did enjoy the video, thank you

[@SailingKateLouise]

err... not sure you are right about that 1 mm is 1000th of a metre which is approximately .787 of an inch. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul

[@johnmclachlan1023]

I've only ever known a thousandth of an inch as a thou. Common terminology in Australia when we used imperial.

[@davidsachs4883]

@@johnmclachlan1023 I haven’t heard thou for 1/1000 of an inch Used mils with machine tools

[@davidsachs4883]

@@SailingKateLouise I’ve seen the .787 being referred to as the bore diameter of a 20mm cannon A meter is 39.36 inches So 1/1000 of a meter would be 39.36 times 1/1000 of an inch So 20 times 1/1000 of an inch would be just over 1/2 a millimeter The other response told me Australians use a different term for what 1/1000 of an inch then is commonly used in North America

[@djmini2numpty141]

im sure, given the trailer for this excerise, wont be on the rod, that the fenders arent required lol

[@SailingKateLouise]

No room for fenders it was very tight, thanks again for watching, cheers Paul

[@carltonbirds]

What do you mean by “oh no”, on your thumbnail, it sounds like click bait, this is why I don’t want to watch the video.

[@stevep5819]

Nothing went wrong, I think Paul was just adding a little drama, you should watch it

[@carltonbirds]

@@stevep5819 let’s see what Paul has to say?

It was such a tight fit there was a lot of tension....I don't think there were any bikinis involved. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
