Ship Shape And Pirate Ships!!

Ah, I see you found SV Notorious. She's a replica of a Portuguese Caravelle, hand built by an Aussie who had a load of timber and a dream. Pretty amazing boat, really. She's black because of the traditional tar, pitch, and linseed oil mixture used to seal the wood.

Sorry about the audio on this one guys, I didn't bring my external mic on this little trip, and she was a blow'n enjoy !!!

[@tomhelton4625]

good job on the varnish, she is looking great.

[@davidhamrick1191]

Simon: I'm glad you and Erin are still friends and talking each day. I wish we could bring her back for another episode. If not, no problem. I still love the videos.

[@petergroves9343]

Nice one Simon, looking forward to the training video, should be good watch, fair winds ⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵

[@TimsBitsnPieces]

Yeah, Notorious (the black wooden boat) was down here in Melb a year or so ago and I had a look over her, yes a very hot boat inside (it even had a wooden stove inside). I do miss going sailing.. I'm a Life Member of the Vic branch of The Wooden Boat Association Inc. and have been to Tassie and lots of other places sailing. There are not many wooden boats of your size and condition sailing these days so it's great to see Narhval being used and newcomers to sailing seeing how old boats are still in use and are sailed. Keep up the great work.

This was a very good episode. I like the blonde. She was salty!

[@tomwilliams8675]

You'll never run out of things to do on the old girl. She sure is looking good.

you could do all the metalwork green ,, that would be cute .

[@davesutherland4569]

Don’t you dare paint Narval black! Lol You have done a great job cleaning her up, she looks amazing! Did that ship come in under sail? That must have been something to see. Cheers

[@AnatolyKern]

Yeah, Notorious ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notorious_(ship) ) is catching the eye, have seen it before NY on GC.

[@pdutube]

Thanks for the link, it's an amazing ship!

[@bobeden5027]

"Pull that thing up"? or Hoist the mains'l !

[@poche660]

With that black hull it has to be a steamship inside.

[@ancientmariner7473]

Good to see fenders for a change...! Like the cap, where d'ya get it? Safe sailing.

[@TheGeordietheWitchandtheWench]

I think an ex gave it to me 🤭

[@eyemstillhear]

After watching Marina Blues and you talking about boat handling in tight spaces I have a question. Could someone before you have changed or replaced the prop for one the wrong pitch ?

[@p-zee]

nice wood bruh

[@TheGeordietheWitchandtheWench]

Wooooodd!! 😋👍

[@faelsinnes]

Be fun to watch the "training vid "

[@tommiller8416]

Stop fucking around Simon, just pull the thing up. :) Ha ha, had a Chief Petty Officer in the US Navy used to talk to me like that. :)

[@TheGeordietheWitchandtheWench]

Haha thanks Tom!!
