    Tanbark sails always add a touch of class to a boat

    I've come to enjoy how your charming, wonderful, very enjoyable videos all begin with that speaker-splintering bark.

    There's a wrecked one in Belfast to the left of the city airport runway, in the water. It's almost unrecognisable now but I do remember when it was more intact. I vaguely remember it having part of it's deck at the bow section but it's long washed away. All that remains now is the starboard side of the bow.

    We have an ex-admiralty Harbour launch, also called Harbinger, both lovely boats!

    Any idea of the name of the book or author the owner referred to? The large tobme published in 1947 on all the fishing boats around the UK mentioned at 7:20.
    Thanks awfully.

    Great video featuring an interesting boat.
    When are we going to see the interviewer?
    Just one question: your channel has 3.4 million viewers or 3.4 million views?

      Bowman 26 - long keel boat while you’re still here I will answer that question as any politician would, it’s now 3.6 mill, I would say what ever number of views they have been looked at by viewers, I test my case, glad you’re still enjoying the channel, you are of course one of my favourite viewers

    Great series, but please, PLEASE, get rid of the dog! That high-pitched yapping at VERY high volume gets me every time, I nearly fall off the chair!

    Nice boat, just lengthen the mast and dump that gaff rig

      sigh--then it wouldn't be what it is . it's lovely and perfect as she sits, in my opinion.

    • @RiggingDoctor
      @RiggingDoctor Před 4 lety +3

      SailorAllan agreed! A gaff rig is just so much prettier to see sailing

    • @JamesHigham
      @JamesHigham Před 4 lety +2

      805gregg Never put a horrible Bermudan rig on this with unwieldy mast, only gaff or lug.

    • @philipritson8821
      @philipritson8821 Před 4 lety

      If you prefer a Bermudan rig then buy a boat with triangular sails.
      But you don't ruin this boat by converting it.
