Date of first upload 12/03/2023 (8,299 views to 19/6/23). Sunderland Maritime Heritage (SMH) welcomes the return home of MV Wearmouth, the pilot boat that provided pilotage services on the River Wear in all weathers and sea conditions, for 40 or so years. Built in South Shields at Robson's Boat Builders Ltd she was completed in 1975. After moving to North Wales and standing in a boatyard for 5 years, SMH was offered MV Wearmouth for a nominal sum by the owner, on the basis that SMH would complete the restoration. That epic task lies ahead! The video was filmed on 8th March 2023. Editing & camera work done by Keith Holman with guidance & collaboration by Jim Sullivan.
This is a charity run 100% by volunteers with the aim of preserving our local maritime heritage.
We are at Unit 2, Church Street East, Sunderland SR1 2BB

I volunteer for SMH, this video can also be seen on my channel as my aim is to spread the word about our charity as wide as possible: / @keithklivideo
This is awesome. Well done guys. I know how much this means to you all
Thanks Lisa, it keeps us busy and out of trouble! Jim & the lads send their regards 👍
If you watch Samson Boat Co - Leo has a brilliant step by step guide to rebuilding a wooden 100 year old yacht - from the keel up !
I live in France and even from here I could see what was going on!
This looks to be in slightly better condition than tally ho but all the luck for restoration
I have too agree with david , I live in sunderland ,so i know you can find some bugger up north to talk ,and give us some history, depth and some story`s about the boat ,instead of that music ?
That sounds like you’re volunteering. The contact details are in the notes, I’ll look forward to meeting you to use your local accent to full effect. Regards, Keith @ SMH
Describe what is going on, instead of the irritating music.
Hi David,
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. With over 16k views on two channels, you’re the first to say this.
If you click on the ‘more’ word just near the title you will find information about how the return came about. Maybe you don’t know that ‘more’ gives more!
Regards, Keith
In what way does nonsensical singing help us watch the MV Wearmouth being unloaded by a crane?
Out of 23,000 views on two channels, you are the only one to make such a stupid comment! You obviously have a strange idea about creative entertainment. Perhaps you lack sufficient understanding of the English language that you used unreliable AI to create your comment.
As you have no videos on your channel and only 3 subscribers you’re hardly qualified to speak with authority. I suggest you go and learn about creativity for a few decades.
@@sunderlandmaritimeheritage9087 I consider myself a disciple of the late Christopher Hitchens, British wordsmith and iconoclast. Channeling Hitchens in my comment about nonsensical singing, I did not "...seek out argument and disputation for their own sake; the grave will supply plenty of time for silence." But rubbish words on the attack rolled blob-like out of my laptop demanding answers. Which are: I did not know I had any subscribers, AI Is beyond my ken, and my critique is unique after 23k views, how nice. Hitchens could be abrasive, never laid back and mellow. I, mellow-like, struck a nerve and hit pay dirt, if I may mix metaphors. Creativity? Come for a visit, we can meet on the corner of Highland and Sunset in LA.
Great music ,to many old guys waving there arms around ,nothing more annoying when your backing or lifting
