    EPISODE 128
    It seems like Tally Ho may be nearly finished… but is she really? And when will she finally be re-launched?
    In this episode we take a look at the work left to do, the steps left to take, the order of tasks, and the likely timeframe.
    We also catch up with the progress over the last couple of weeks, with a lot of interior joinery, a sliding bunk mockup, drip-tray and sole board installation, and a mysterious teddy bear.

    I don't imagine you're going to read this comment, but I discovered your channel at the beginning of 2020 and it gave me something to look forward to during the pandemic. It continues to be something good that I can watch, free of politics and the doom and gloom of most media. Thank you for the work you do. Both on the Tally Ho and on these videos

      Maybe someone will leave a huge legacy which will push this project forward so that those of us for age ( or health ) reasons, feel the pressure of time on the completion, might live to see it.
      IF I had the money myself, I would leave it
      (But of course in that case, I would miss the launch anyway .)

    Hey Leo, I've got a flag pole lathe that is set up in a 45' semi trailer. The drive end can actually be moved and setup outside of the trailer and/or it could be turned around so theoretically it could be configured many different ways so the length of the trailer in no way limits the overall length of mast or spar that this thing is capable of turning. Basically there's 45' of track with 4 jaw chucks at each end, one with a motor that turns the pole and there's a carriage with a high speed cutter that travels between them. I'm located on the California Central Coast and due to circumstances beyond my control this "Flagpole Lathe" needs to find a new home. Hit me up if this is something you might be interested in. I can provide you with videos of this thing in action and I am certain that it could be used to produce some very high quality masts and spars.

And what delight to see Patrick actually BECOMING a shipwright. He is doing some serious work here. That doesn't surprise me. I certainly enjoy his presence on this project. It is a great crew.

    This is really worth watching a couple of times... the amazing work with wood as well as the discussion about project software. I'd love to pour over that software and open each of those boxes to see what lies ahead. Leo is amazing with impressive skills. This channel has brought me unending joy the past four years.

      And I was wondering how many nights Leo worked to set up all those systems and individual jobs on that software? My first assumption was that it was a rather generic management tool he had to massively add data timelines and supportive timelines to. Then I decided it was already engineered to be specific to wooden boat building greatly reducing the infeed necessary to make it fit Tally Ho.

    Ok, Leo, the clips of you hammering in time with the soundtrack (10:05 and 11:16) were money! And was the pitch matching with the drill at 11:23 intentional? I'm saying it was because the drill pitch changed when the chord changed as well.

    You guys have done an amazing job on this rebuild. One thing that made me SOOO sad was seeing the white paint going over all that gorgeous wood. I understand why it had to be done, but man, it sure would have been nice (for me at least) to see all that exotic wood in its natural glory. I'm helping a friend restore a 1957 Richardson all mahogany cabin cruiser and it has been such a long project that the topside awlgrip varnish style coating on the bow deck is peeling off.
    No peeling on the painted areas even in the bilge which almost always has some amount of water in it, as the hull drains seem to really enjoy getting plugged with everything from wasp nests to leaves to sawdust. The boat is in Grantsboro NC and is pretty much out in the weather now, since with every storm we'd lose the fabric for the galvanized frame (fencepost style) "garage" she was under.
    I mean EVERY time we got a bad storm the stupid cover would shred. We aren't youtubers nor do we have any patrons, this is basically a one man show (my buddy used to own a boatyard and has done this work his entire life, I'm a rank amateur)
    So we finally gave up on the rather huge oversized garage idea. Those covers cost WAY too much money for us to be able to replace them every month or two. But we kept it tarped and the stuff STILL peeled off. You would think that with today's "better living thru chemistry" we could make some kind of gloss wood protective coating that wouldn't degrade from UV, nor peel, nor anything else.
    Dave said (we're both "Dave's") he used some kind of clear awlgrip, but it looked to me almost like a pourable polycarbonate when it was dry (and blistered up)
    The strange thing is that the bottom side of the deck boards have always been dry with no water staining or any other signs of moisture. It has to all come from simple humidity, I'm guessing?
    Anyway, Dave got the boat free and the previous owner had replanked the entire boat. However, when he did that, he screwed up BADLY when he bored the holes for the prop shafts (the engines are old international Harvester 281 cubic inch gas hogs (I think that's the displacement, I know it was the same block up to the IH 327 CID)
    So he bores the holes for the shafts and doesn't realize when he tore ALL The planking off at once and then replanked it that the entire geometry of the boat changed. Which entailed a massive amount of rework. But the guy was something like 95 when he died, so we really cannot complain all that much. The hard work was done, but like your Tally Ho, this boat was also taken down to literally nothing but the skeleton.
    I wish we could afford the kind of wood you're using, it is simply astounding. But man, I wish there was a way you could have varnished it with something that would last as long as paint.
    I did note one thing when we did our bilge before doing the cockpit deck., Trying to keep that white paint WHITE is very hard to do. Especially when you're messing around with hydaulic anchor winches, hydraulic steering and all kinds of black hoses, fan belts, rubber gaskets, etc. One of our biggest problems has been GLASS. This boat has sliding glass windows in both cabin sides. The rails these glass pieces slide in are impossible to find and this, like yours was a salt water boat. So the instruments and every bit of chrome was pitted badly. The worst being the window channels. Which are also impossible to source since it appears they were hand made. Neither side is anywhere close to matching the other (in reverse since it's port-starboard) Even the glass is different on each side, and its pretty badly scratched.
    Anyway, on a much smaller scale, we've been doing exactly what you're doing. Only on basically NO budget whatsoever. We put ads online and in local papers for folks who are cutting up an old wood boat (like a constellation or something) so we can try to get wood we can use. We both envy your fundraising ability. And your professional work crew.
    Keep up the good work! We've been using quite a few of the techniques we've seen on your videos. But not as precise since all we have is a very old table saw and a borrowed planer. We did score a decent sized white oak tree (and we promptly tested it after seeing that bad chunk of white oak you had that DID have some capillary action) and used that for the battens in the V-berth up front (for a 33' boat it has a horrible layout, I think, but we can't change it)
    Wish I could post some photos, but you can't do that here. But if you know of ANYTHING out there that will actually LAST under the sun that is a clear coating over stained wood, I'd love to find out about it. I just wish you didn't have to cover up all that wonderful wood with paint (and those super cool copper rivets too, that looks so awesome!)

    I once owned a 35’ sailing boat named , Endurance I owned it for 10 years+ I made many upgrades to her and did all the work myself, being a mechanic on industrial equipment helped a lot with the electrical ,hydraulic and rigging systems, I even had stainless steel davits off the back with a dinghy and motor, still miss my boat! But seeing the work you people do and the kind of boat your building makes me dream again, if I had the funds I would have you people build me a boat somewhat like tally Ho !

    This boat is turning out like a carpenter's masterpiece, every wooden part perfectly fitted, all the wood grain beautifully brought to bear... The quality of wood is just so beautiful to look at - It would almost make me want to see the boat displayed in a museum as an art piece rather than sailed...
    Almost but not quite.

    When I was a kid there were two hippies in my neighborhood that built a 60 foot racing sailboat. fiberglass hull. The first sign something was happening was when the giant molds were brought into the neighborhood. It took them probably 8 years to build. When they went to pull the hull from the mold it split in two. Not a disaster but a little of a disappointment. I remember the months spent laying the ballast. Tons of scrap lead was brought in, they melted down into bricks, stacked them in the keel and then poured molten lead over them all.
    It was christened "Erotica"
    My dad's reaction when he saw the name on the stern was a sarcastic "nice"

    but I think they rarely ever built stuff at that level of quality, the best of everything in every details.
    The original Tally Ho had iron frame angles, Leo went for bronze,and better alloys everywhere possible
    never cutting corners except for teak since it is just not there anymore.

    I've watched every video, stunned by the quality and workmanship; that drip tray is the first thing I've seen go into the boat which is sub par. FYI those sugared welds will rust immediately. If condensation forms on the outside of the tray then rust may drip onto the inside of the hull. I recommend having another tray made and this time insist that all welds are properly back purged. Generally speaking, if a weld in 316 has any sign of blackening it WILL rust badly in a marine environment.

    Another thing that I think you sometimes don't emphasize too much is the amount of extra time that filming and editing takes (especially for editing of this great quality). And I find the whole documenting sort of a double-edged sword; on the one hand it slows you down somewhat, and on the other it's a great part of what allows you to get this project going.
    I for one I'm not complaining, I love that I get to see this evolving, and I also get that this quality of work (video and boatbuilding wise) time is required. Whenever the launch comes, I only dream that I get to see it in the flesh.
