Episode 1

Visiting Tally Ho

The Albert Strange 1910 Gaff Cutter "Tally Ho" is in danger of being destroyed if she is not moved this summer. I go to Oregon to see how rotten she really is, and try to decide whether to take the project on.

Episode 58

Ship Of Theseus and Project Recap

A few people have suggested that it might have been simpler, quicker and cheaper to build a new boat rather than restore this one ... and they'd be absolutely right ... it would be much easier and much cheaper.

But that's not the point. If this was about the easiest and cheapest way to own a boat, you could just go out to pretty much any marina in the world these days and get a bargain that you can sail away in, for just a few grand.

This is about rebuilding a historic vessel and saving it from destruction. It's about something that I think is worth doing. It's about making a good story and it's about, more than anything else, of the magic of sailing or a very old boat.

It will be a mix of a vessel that's over 100 years old and one I've built myself and for me those are two of the most romantic, wonderful ideas that you could have.

Episode 100

Rebuilding a wooden boat - 4 years in 29 mins!

Leo's 100th Episode almost exactly coincided with both completing the hull and the move to Port Townsend.  Here he gives an overview of the past for years, with explanation of a number of things past present and future.  Time-lapse footage of numerous parts of the whole and appearances by many of the crew over those four years, including, of course, the star macaw Pancho.

You'll find all the episodes on his YouTube channel and linked here in the YachtTallyHo website blog where we link to every one.
