Leo when you finish this fantastic ship build, would you consider offering a hard bound book about the boat with glossy photos and descriptions of all the details of the boat. These videos are great but a coffee table book to hold and look at would be a nice companion and a tribute to the project.

[@leifpettersson4509]

I would pre-order a few books right away if I knew they were coming. Some portraits / bios of the build crew should not be forgotten in such a book.

[@mcrumph]

I agree completely, especially if the book were letterpress printed & hand bound, half leather over cloth of the same colour as Tally Ho's hull. The photos can be tipped in during the signature sewing. Yet another way to keep all the old, beautiful crafts alive & vibrant.

[@tomoakhill8825]

A tun is a large wooden barrel used to hold wine. By 1450 the French were making tuns in a standard size, to ship wine, because the French king imposed an export tax. The English king was taxing the import of wine, so the tunnage of a ship was the number of tun barrels it could hold. A barrel is a complex shape. Packing any ship's hold with barrels will leave a lot of void space. Thus the volume contained in the tuns in a hold packed tight with tuns, is less than the volume the hold could contain if filled with wine not in barrels. The tax is still in place, though of course the tax law has changed a couple of dozen times in the intervening 574 years. But the lawmakers never wanted to re-measure all the ships currently in existence so they kept using tunnage, now spelled tonnage. In fact the current law, the International Maritime Organization's International Convention on Tonnage Measurement of Ships, came into effect in 1969. It initially applied to all ships built after July 1982, and then to older ships from July 1994. This is used to determine registration fees, harbour dues, safety and manning rules. The calculations of tonnage are complex because they have had 574 years to be messed with by lawyers, tax evaders, judges, and lawmakers. Good luck figuring it out.

[@patchmack4469]

totally with you - i have had the pleasure to watch from Leo's humble beginnings, trials and tribulations, i too am not a boatbuilder or woodworker (i did my little bit in school of course) and its funny i have no real interest in owning or sailing a boat either, but my interest is in technology and engineering, building a boat has so much to understand, shipwrights and engineering in those early days was truly mind blowing, how to make planks fit a hull is so interesting and the finish of this boat is magical, its less a boat and more a fantastic piece of furniture, its like one of those desks with a million hidden compartments, all having multiple uses, magical sums it up, the finish is just so heart warming, living aboard will be so enjoyable, pieces i love like the corner cupboard with illuminated stained glass i have seen a few boats being built here on You Tube and none seem to meet Tally Ho's quality, although a couple of folk do put their absolute all into the build and refine much of their work - this is definitely a master craftsman wet dream

[@vladeckk21]

same here. Such a privilege to watch this sort of craftmanship.

[@russellbarnes4233]

Tonnage admeasurement, in the time that Tally Ho was built, was roughly the same as what the United States was using. In fact, the British began using the Moorsom system of admeasurement in 1854 and in 1865, the US began using a very similar system. Both countries had been using the "Builder's Old Measure" which was rather inaccurate in gauging the ship's tonnage. The Moorsom system was a bit more complicated, but it yielded a calculation of the internal cubic capacity of a given hull and reckoned that 100 cubic feet of internal capacity was one ton. So, if a hull measured 1000 cubic feet of capacity under deck, then it measured 10 tons under deck. The enclosures above deck (cabins) were also measured the same way and their internal capacity was added to under deck tonnage to give gross tonnage. The areas below deck that could not carry cargo (living quarters, gear storage) were measured and that capacity was subtracted from gross tonnage to give net tonnage. The calculation was simple math based on the internal cross section measurements taken of the existing hull on the inside. There were governmental regulations to cover each measurement and how the calculation was done.

[@Mikeandlucy1]

Interesting, So my 1968 24ft (7.3 metres) motorsailer has similar markings showing as it does Tons 5 with 44 over 100 next to it. The blurb when I bought her claims she weighs 3 tons. Can you explain the numbers please. I had assumed the 44 over 100 was her displacement ballast weight.

[@russellbarnes4233]

If I understand what you said, the gross tonnage is 5 and 44/100 tons, or 5.44 tons. 3 tons might be net tons, or it could have been a mistake made by the person selling the boat.

[@Mikeandlucy1]

the sales blurb gives her weight as 2.950 kilos, which is 3.25 tons, its the 44/100 that confuses me@@russellbarnes4233

I have thought about those numbers many times since you found them. I have hoped, ever since, that they would make their way into the rebuild. Rock on.

[@webbtrekker534]

The "Tun" in the measurement of a vessel refers to the number of casks of wine that could be carried. a "standard "tun"'' of the time. The tun is an English unit of liquid volume (not weight), used for measuring wine, oil or honey. Typically a large vat or vessel, most often holding 252 wine gallons, but occasionally other sizes (e.g. 256, 240 and 208 gallons) were also used.[2] The modern tun is about 954 litres. Standard tuns of wine came to serve as a measure of a ship's capacity. (see Wikipedia for full description)

Those mast wedges are works of art, wow.

[@jpraiswater8625]

I am a professional tile setter. Though I could not read what it was that was used, it appeared to me that the adhesive used to set the tile was a premix standard mastic. If this is the case, I will warn you that using wall mastic for a fireplace backer is highly not recommended. Mastic does not handle heat very well and most likely the tile will crack and/or fall off. What we use when we set fireplaces is modified thinset. Also using a v-notch would work, I would use a slightly larger trowel to set the tile with a thicker bed to place it further away from the backerboard so the heat would have a harder time making it through.

Just wanted to hop on and say keep up the amazing work sir! Your hard work on producing these videos (on top of all the actual work and project management etc.) are very much appreciated.

[@burlatsdemontaigne6147]

It's impossible to ignore Leo's growing excitement as the project moves towards its final stages.The lad is buzzing! (and why not?)

[@DWNagle-bq1ly]

Leo, I have thoroughly enjoyed your series. From the first dollar spent, to the installation of the deck winches. What a fantastic journey it has been.

[@andymarr7610]

Just superb, as a sailor, tradesman for 35 years, amateur wood butcher and lover of quality, your team consistantly astound me. In fact in every episode for years. I applaud your tenacity, thoroughness and absolute attention to detail and perfection. Tally-ho will long be a tribute to "doing it right". Hats off, you're an inspiration to all. 👌

Bob is a wizard of wood!

[@peterlee2622]

Oh Wow! All the details on Tally Ho are just GORGEOUS! As others have said, the skill and mastery of woodwork on this boat are outstanding. To see such craftsmanship lifts the spirit. Thank you Leo, from an old fellow Brit.

Amazing very nice ❤ Wood Cutting process 🎉🎉🎉

[@Slaydriano]

you can build a fancy boat from scratch, but when we talk about tiles...hmm... its great to see you guys are humans, after all! Great job, love your channel and have been following since the beggining! Im a huge fan, despite my internet sarcasm.

[@gaius_enceladus]

Beautiful winches there! I loved the look at their internal workings - I really love mechanical gadgets and gizmos so that was great! Gee, that woodburner looks good too - very cozy on a cold winter evening with the wind blowing and rain lashing down! I can imagine sipping some spiced rum while sitting around that, listening to Leo telling a few stories!

The intro is back, that makes it even better 😋

[@davidprocter3578]

Don't know where that young Bob gets off being so competent and talented, flaunting his skills like that making the rest of us feel inadequate. Shame on him, his mother obviously forgot to teach him that showing off like that just is not acceptable behavior, I just can not fathom why he would want to embarrass me so badly over my own efforts at winch base blocks.😀 seriously I thought his wedges and blocks were first class, wish I had his talent.

[@frederickstibbert7389]

Heh, any kind of oddbins scraps would've done for the mast wedges - but Bob had to be showing away...

[@hansslob6749]

She’s getting more beautiful by the week!

[@jonessmith2068]

Amazing! In awe again of all the skilled crafts people that have worked on Tally Ho!

[@meganluke444]

I was very impressed with tracing and carving the official numbers into the deck beam. Despite all the new materials, this really keepsTally-Ho the same original vessel. Cheers!

[@anthonyrondolino8148]

Bob is just super talented. A tremendous asset and, as you can tell, a cool person.

[@joebrown1382]

Bob's winch pedestals are genuine artwork. All the winches in place is beautiful. Wood stove looks great & the tile background will be nice. I would save & display the original piece of teak with the wrought spike somewhere on Tall Ho.

[@davidyendoll5903]

Put it up for auction and get something useful instead ! I will get my coat !

[@seanknight9898]

I am in absolute awe of the whole team’s incredible dedication, skill & craftsmanship. Tally Ho is shaping up to be one of the greatest stories of a vessel that was great to begin with and just when it nearly ended, has been brought back to life to become what I believe to be one of the beautiful boats I have ever laid eyes upon. It has been an absolute pleasure to follow along from the very beginning of her rebirth. Thank you guys. I hope this series and others like it, rejuvenates the passion for true hand built boats. You all deserve and need to continue your craft and pass on these incredible skills.

[@BoatbuildingIndia]

So Bountiful ❤ and Bountiful wood working ❤❤❤

Happy Easter to everyone😊

[@sheriffjohn2498]

I totally enjoy the craftsmanship and quality of you and your teams work. For me, following the part of lofting the hull and rigging are 2 highlights for me. Just wonderful! I can imagine how great it will be sailing her while enjoying looking and feeling her. Enough of the sugar, now the vinegar. The tile heat shield. The material selection is fine, the install is great too but the tile placement is a rookie mistake. The tile rows, length and height should be centered. Meaning if a row does not allow whole tiles and you need to put a partial tile in to complete the row, then you should center a tile on the centerline or a whole tile on either side of the centerline. This then you will need 2 equal sized partial tiles on either end. I only bring this up because this is a simple rework and it’s not a expensive remake, time and labor. With all the beautiful woodwork, etc. Redoing the tile just raises the bar a bit. Its those little details. If this was a large tile job, I would not have mentioned it. There are times when you can start laying tile from a corner, but this isn’t one of them. Once again, I hope you don’t mind the constructive criticism. SJ

[@tomas5376]

The winch “village” is absolutely first class! Love the wood stove and the elegant heat shield. What can I say about the mast wedges, the plinths and pedestals? Fine, fine craftsmanship!⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️👏👏👏👏👏

[@Idontremember27]

Makes me happy seeing all the littles bits and pieces of the original Tally Ho make it into the rebuild. What a legacy you are building Leo.

[@SlowlySailing-lc1cs]

From a collection of projects, to something resembling a boat, to quite a lovely yacht...really enjoying the progress. If ghosts ae real, the first time you get to solo sail her, Leo, you may find old Strange himself with you in the cockpit, bursting with pride, happiness, and gratitude. I'm sure all her former masters and crew could be looking on, too, equally pleased.

[@robertgold2643]

Proof of your mastery of all things boat need go no further than the fact you installed tiles without having to get on your knees. Hats off to ya! 🙏

[@CentristRN]

Beautiful work on winch bases. Today is the anniversary of the “Front Door”. LEGENDARY!
