My Classic Boat Pinky Ketch 35

[@spencercunningham4327]

Beautiful build with a great story! Thanks 😊

[@kr1886]

This is a great story of a lovely looking boat. Taking advantage of the 1987 blow to obtain the timber for the build was a wonderful way of turning bad news into good. Showing her in silhouette was an excellent way of highlighting her beautiful lines, thanks Bob!

[@donnakawana]

Wow what a beautiful job he did building that Pinky Catch.... Wow I worked on a 92 ft schooner an I have much respect for anyone who builds or takes on a wooden vessel! ✌🏻💗😊❣️

[@sirluchalot]

You wonder how people finance such a venture, very creative with the names on the back of doors. You obviously have skill to complete such a big project, many people start but never finish for many reasons. Great job! She may be slow but sailing to most is the journey not the speed. Beautiful!

[@canyonhaverfield2201]

over my page within Face Book.. I've declared your amazing creation as the prettiest boat I've viewed over the year '16. I'm hugely moved! Thank you for this rich share Iain.. and may your soil be richly endowed with nutrients equal to Scotland's Finhorn Gardens' .

[@timothyblazer1749]

It reminds you that most things in life happen out there, not on here. :-) gorgeous!

[@johnnyboy1586]

Shiver me timbers, what a beautiful boat👍

[@canyonhaverfield2201]

This is my heartthrop'n favorite for the year .. tough one to call yet I keep coming back to review , so feel confident in this statement ... Hi Iain T. .. so whats the likelihood of you posting more footage of her at play.. plus getting a look at some archival footage of her build ? Thanks in advance for any work in this direction .. mean time my wishes for a healthy windy winter to you and yours plus the crew at 'MyClassicBoat . Your volumes of work and shares are treasures to many of us ! Thank you deeply... wait wait.. I just came across ton's about Naida and Iain .. yippee

[@barryroach1980]

Great history of how this boat became to be being created from local trees that were not cut down just for this project but from the result of the big storm! I'm a non sailor so to hear the story and see interiors are the favorite things although I'm sure you crusty sea dogs out there will be laughing at me for that. I'm 53 so I guess there is still plenty of time for me to at least learn how to sail a dingy!!

[@mr.morgan5643]

Absolutely amazing story and video!! Well done sir!! Fair winds!!

[@barrysonha7539]

thanks for sharing what a wonderful boat and fantastic job

[@JenkinsBoatWorks]

absolutely beautiful inside and out

[@tommypetraglia4688]

Sponsor a door, what a brilliant and charming idea

[@MsHan71]

I love the idea of people sponsoring a door- that's fun and enriching. We are embarking on the ownership of a wooden sailing ketch which is exciting. Wondering if you are still about in Portsmouth ? We are Brighton based and likely will be while we do some needed works on Kirsty.

What a beautiful boat!

[@rimasmeleshyus9486]

Congratulations captain ! Happy new year to you 2021 Very beautiful sailboat ⛵. Many thanks for the video. Warm greetings from beautiful island 🏝 of Kauai. Located in the middle pacific ocean

[@MARTINA-gc3tq]

wow.....well done....stunning boat.

[@somadevo]

'love your windship....outstanding accomplishment....great version of life on our planet

[@Cyrusmagi]

she looks a real classic with good sea keeping qualities. You will need to sail her in northern waters around Scotland , outer heberides , Orkney and fair isle Shetland . i have in my beatup kingfisher 20 . All those years of building takes a lot of faith in her so make sure you use her while you can. You have faith in your boat you and her can singlehanded cruise our great shores.

[@gcallender1]

WOW, is all I can say, that is a magnificent yacht. Well done, very impressive.

[@donnanhuggler8451]

Insanely nice sailboat

[@gregoryclark3870]

Beautiful boat my parents built a 55 foot steel katch with a pinky stern we lived aboard her on terminal island Long Beach California early 1960s

[@mikecorleone6797]

I’m over here by henry ford bridge. I have 5 boats including a 50 foot ketch built around 1939. Hopefully she’ll be ready to sail around September

[@gregoryclark3870]

@@mikecorleone6797 I lived at fellows and steward right next to the Henry Ford bridge terminal island side

[@mikecorleone6797]

@@gregoryclark3870 i believe that’s island yacht anchorage now. That’s close to where I’m at

Beautiful Boat

[@2bitrasputin793]

Beautiful Boat!

[@heinrichvonkekelnazi393]

That may very well be the most beautiful boat I've ever seen.

[@jt659]

Saved me typing the comment! It's beautiful!

[@grantsmythe8625]

Now that is one fine work of art.

[@larryduran4019]

What beauty!

[@brucebaldy]

Beautiful ship.

[@BandiGetOffTheRoof]

Was the idea with a mizzen mast to hold the boat still into the wind while fishing?

[@markturner4219]

Yes, and to dampen the motion on the ocean swell. Even today, most motor fishing vessels down in Cornwall still have a small mast to hoist a sail at the rear of the boat for the same purpose.

[@rimasmeleshyus6545]

It’s beautiful video, very classic boat ,many thanks. I love your sailboat incredible beauty. I am sailing around the world alone incredible adventures under the American flag. I am now living in the garden island of Kauai. My all sailing pictures on my Facebook page. Always welcome. Fair winds and following seas

[@Cssfiend]

and here i have had plans for only a 12' selway fisher dory for probably 10 years and still haven't made a start

[@cpt.mirones5109]

do it before you get to tired to do so.

[@hulsfamcalcan]

How's it going?

[@anthonycontares1140]

Absolute Gem

[@TroyaE117]

Salut ! She must be a lot of maintenance though.

[@AndyUK-Corrival]

Amazing build and lovely boat but not enough footage of the boat in detail and interior. Too much talk for me...

[@dabrownone]

The reason it's called a pinky is because of the stern, which "pinked" or pinched (double ender)

[@philipritson8821]

how was she constructed? is it strip planked or carvel?

[@cymoncyrado2879]

the bowsprit is looking a little rough. beautiful yacht tho

[@jorne87]

Just wanna say. I love this channel. But you should really get a better microphone and maybe try to equalise the sound of the voices a bit.

[@myclassicboat9083]

Morning and thanks for comments, we are working on that and our new videos are sounding a lot better. This one was shot couple years back. Keep watching and thanks again

[@MilledSteel]

Awesome vessel

[@sbgroen]

Lovely.

[@chasx7062]

Whats the definition of a ketch?

[@larsfrandsen2501]

Just spectacular.

[@davidballenger4954]

To take hold of or grab

[@杨超-b3u]

[@mrhardeveryday]

[@lsesternester3231]
