You are very much appreciated 🙏🏻❤️

[@thomasarussellsr]

Thank you, Nurse. Most don't realize all that you and your sisters and brothers in smocks do for us. Having several nurses in the family, including my mom who just retired after over 45 years in nursing, I have seen first hand much of what they go through for their patients. Nurses are the real heroes of medical emergencies like this pandemic we are all going through right now. They do 90% of the work in hospitals for less than 20% of the pay as compaired to doctors and administrators. Anyone who has ever been admitted to a hospital, or had a friend or loved one admitted knows this to be true. You are lucky to see the doctor for 5 minutes each day, the nurses are there 8-12 hours each at a time, unless they are pulling a double shift because the hospital is under-staffed and they have to to take care of the patients. SALUTE to NURSES!

[@robw2379]

Leo, If you are feeling very science-y and curious, you can do the following: - Take a cut off from your planking, full width, but only about two inches long. - Measure its width with a micrometer or other very accurate device. - Measure its weight with a lab scale. Put it in a very warm, dry space for about a week. Not hot enough to scorch, but very warm. Maybe on top of a baseboard radiator, or in a warming oven (about 120F). Remeasure after a week, and you will have a very good estimate of moisture content and expected maximum shrinkage. (Moisture content = loss of mass / post-drying total mass) Thanks for sharing all the excellent work of you and your crew. -A woodworker and former lab nerd

I have been watching since the very start. I must say I am amazed at what is involved to build and all wood boat. I mean I know it took a lot but yet I was way off on just how much was really involved. In my lifetime, I am now 77, I had two professions, I started as a carpenter's helper then got into a steel fab shop as a helper. Got one of the guys to teach me to weld and became a welder. After 15 years doing that I got laid off and started my own business as a carpenter. Did some new construction framing and residential remodeling for another few years till the market crash of the 80's. Then went to work for a residential remodeling company till about 10 years ago when I retired. But none of that lifetime of experience would have prepared me for the kind of work and your assistance pull off. I am blown away by the kind of work you all do and the complexity of it. And the quality of it all is just amazing. I regret that I have not been in a position to come and work for you on this project for just the experience of being part of something so grand and amazing. You and all those that have joined you in this wonderful endeavor and experience deserve the joy and pride you will feel when it is finished and makes her maiden voyage. By the way I spent three years on and aircraft carried when in the US Navy as a very young man and have a great love of the sea as you obviously do. Congratulations on a most amazing endeavor and so pleased that you made these videos so we out here as the viewing public get a chance to share what you all work so hard on to accomplish.

Tally Ho is emerging as art as well as a fine sailing ship. The camera work was outstanding this time. The light was just right and showed off the boat beautifully. I also found it totally appropriate that part of the music was Ragtime. Ragtime came into general popularity during the time that Tally HO was being designed and built. It swept the country in popularity. This is hilarious considering that this music was written and performed in the parlors of the bawdy houses of St. Louis. It was played to entertain the "gentleman callers" as they waited to see their "ladies". Nice to see that it was also played slowly, as specified by the creator of Ragtime, Scott Joplin.

Poncho is going to go through people withdraw when this project is over. Macaws are very people dependent and do not like it when their environment changes dramatically. Anyways - this is one of my favorite channels to watch even though I never had an interest in wood boats before seeing this. I think it’s because this has been more of a journey about people as much as it’s been about a boat. I wish you a happy future and look forward to every step it takes to complete the boat. I have been watching since the beginning and love it every time that you post a new video

Happy Valentine’s Day Tally Ho!

[@stevenmiller5088]

Leo , just saw a video here on the tube that might interest you .... Jolie Brisse - the boat the changed John cunliffe life .... maybe you already know of this 1913 pilot cutter but it was wonderfull watching her sail the vid may even remind you of bits and pieces to put in the diary for future scavenging to keep the project on track ... look forward to see this pilot cutter and the tally ho head to head maybe in a few years what a glorious sight to see two ex fastnet race winners of the same era back in battle ......

Two videos in one week! What a treat.

[@jpdj2715]

It's a joy to watch you rebuild this boat. I hope everybody watching this, appreciates the difficulty of all the curves, beveled edges, angles, etc. that you put together so masterfully.

[@kallindar123]

I remember the first episodes when leo was removing the old planks The state of the boat back then and now incredible , Gratz Leo and the crew for this amazing Job

[@ghhammer3498]

Great Job Leo and Pete and what a GREAT Crew. Professionalism and Skill for these shipwrights. I enjoy every video you all put out. Thank You.

[@pappabob29]

Coming from someone with a lifelong (late into my seventh decade) connection and deep respect for skill and the pride of craftsmanship, your work on this project and that of your crew is nothing short of "outstanding" !!! Looking at your entire project, "at any stage", presents a image that very closely resembles a "computer generated drawing" it's all so uniform, consistent, and perfect. Kudos and congrats to you and your crew on such a outstanding job!!!! 👍👍👍👌

[@franshessels2205]

It's cold outside. Snow is kind of melting. There is Covid in different varieties and a curfew and tomorrow there is a rain and black ice forecast here in The Netherlands. But this weekend twice there was the joy of looking at pure craftmanship and beautiful plank lining.

[@twecharclimber]

It's awesome to see the public confidence and character development of the whole team, their personalities beaming. Character building going hand in hand with boat building🙌🙌

[@peterbrickwood3204]

February 24 - hope you guys are surviving the polar freeze ok. Leo, don't worry about a comb, as soon as soon as you start sailing, that boat will fly and give your head a nice aerodynamic shape. Annie, you've got a great smile. What's your name in the witness protection program, you'd better grow a mustache, half the world knows where you are by now. I hope all your Mums and Dads are doing well. "Hey, Leo, what cha doing in there?" -- Love it. Cheka, hope you are well and will one day be able to rejoin this crew.

[@David_Best]

It’s refreshing to see (finally) that there is some sense of humor here. Leo is so serious that I was wondering if he ever jokes around. The work is amazing. Decided to put in my own whiskey plank today - got one more toothpick in the shot glass. Happy Valentine’s Day all.

[@roadie3124]

I've recognised a very subtle, dry, English sense of humour in Leo. It's a humour that doesn't go for huge laughs, but relies on acknowledging smiles and the odd head nod.

[@randalljames1]

whisky plank = "live stream" everyone has a drink... been following this since day one and a patreon... learned a lot.. about people...

[@AlanBerkel]

What a nice surprise to have two episodes this weekend. This is honestly my favorite show on the internet.

[@mickmccrohon]

You are a great team and Tally Ho is already a work of art. Bring on the Whisky Plank!

[@brianwillerton8659]

I must say...as you get closer to the finish on this work of art, I almost have a mourning for the coming time when Leo will be gone from boat building, but, my only solace is knowing he will have to build something else someday and I anticipate his great exploration into something truely worth his and our time.

[@quikscot1528]

At a guess, there's stil so much interior work ahead, we may only be somewhere between halfway through and two thirds? Perhaps someone with more knowledge and insight has a good handle on the amount of remaining work and how long it will take approximately?

[@ciberbri59]

"a boat builder And a sailor" don't forget. When Tally Ho takes to the water the videos will probably get even better.

[@JustMe-pp1mp]

@@quikscot1528 the stock answer is two years,, It's been two years since episode one. and it'll be 2 years from tomorrow, 2 years from the day after that etc., etc.

[@lizdini722]

I was so glad to see Sailor in this video. I hadn’t seen her in the last few videos and I thought something had happened to her. Tally Ho is really starting to come together. She looks great!

[@denniss5512]

You can really tell the progress in all the people skill levels and confidence in what they are doing.

[@MikeSpille]

I love that surprise ending! Haha!

[@DaleLClay]

Two in one weekend, time to by a lottery ticket!

[@gizmolannigan]

Thanks Leo for the extra episode

[@teddill4893]

Tally Ho is almost back to where you started. LOL. Looking fantastic. You have a great group of craftsmen working with you.

[@mikewillis2934]

I am bowled over by the sheer beauty of the lines of the hull. As well as building a functioning boat you are building a work of art! Thanks for sharing
