We want to rig Flying Coney as a schooner brig / modern brigantine with square sails on the foremast and gaff sails on the aft one. But what is your favorite sailing ship rig type?
That sounds like a suitable , attractive and manageable rig. Maybe a boom on the fore mast for really shorthanded trips. Brazil up the squares and sail like a schooner. Keeping flexibility in the sail plan to go with both conditions and ability of your crew will serve you well imho.
I know so very little about sail configurations , so I must ask . Your ship will have 2 masts ? And is that considered a ketch . Remember please I’m a beginner!
Brig rig (square sails on both masts). Very versatile (ship can be maneouvered in tight harbours, rivers etc without engine if needed…) and you can have lot of sthings to do for the trainee crew… see e.g. Morgenster. There seem to be people who think square rig is dangerous - probably they haven’t sailed a square rigger… modern safety gear and training makes it rather safe. Also sitting on deck with little to do in a fore-and-aft ship vs handling square sails (even only in foremast) makes sailing a lot more interesting. Also ship of this size would need huge downwind sails of gennaker/spinnaker type (expensive, difficult to handle with inexperienced crew) compared with three or so square sails of moderate size.
You both know what you are doing and want out of this magnificent ship . Myself I am just a retired heavy diesel mechanic . I know you have a beautiful power plant in that boat . I believe in the two of you to put this old ship of the seas back together. She deserves it .
Flying Coney is now technically in order.The hull is surveyed, the damage fixed and the engine is maintained. So we're slowly getting to the point were we can build up and start the transformation.
Schooner Brig!!!🤣 One word makes all the difference. A Brig has square sails on both masts and would be difficult to handle with the 12-15 people we can accommodate.
That's is a great move closer to getting her new rig and at least now you can more easily see how she will look eventually. Barbara your new rig looks great now lol
Danial of course it had to rain only when you were working 😊.I think for a lot of people they would be happy to have her in her current state .But as you said your both sailors and she was always meant to be a motor sailor .and when the time arrives to take her out under full sail she will show and surprise you and the world how well she moves and handles .I hope Im there to see that big smile your going to have then .
I think it all depends on what one wants to do with a boat. For shorthanded costal cruising or as a semi mobile floating home the current trawler yacht configuration is probably best. For teaching the skills how to sail a square rigger probably not so much. 😉 We do want to make a circumnavigation after we've finished the restoration and for ocean crossing a sailing rig is really nice to have.
@@FlyingConey believe you are correct on both counts there are a couple of of sailing ships that are copies of well known sailing ships in the north west here and they have both outfitted with engines I know 1 if not both were used in the movie pirates of the Caribbean .And i have been on one of them
I think it was important to give it some context. New running rigging and new stays would've been at least 4 000€. So in my opinion a lot of money we better save for the final rig.
Cees is a very talented welder and he was a huge help during this shipyard time. They really have a great team at Hoekman Scheepswerf. I can 100% recommend the yard.
The ship is gonna look splendid with her new masts and rigging. Looking forward to it. I'm especially looking forward to the front bit, it's going to change her shape dramatically from what you have. She probably is going to look stunning.
Yes the bowsprit will have a huge impact on how the boat looks. I'm surprised that most people don't notice the fixed part that is still attached to the bow. Also a lot of people get confused by the length of the boat now it's 82ft but with the bowsprit it will be 105ft.
Oh man, shes going to be absolutely breathtaking as a fully rigged brigantine. Yeah, that dinky little motorsailing mast had to go. No place for foolish little spars on a proper tall ship. Great work, guys!
At least you see the Beaty within a true tall ship. Square sails are amazing. I get it, they're outdated. But isn't sailing outdated altogether? She will look stunning once she has her two masts again and we will teach people how to sail her properly and safely.
Big changes all round. Flying Coney takes a huge step forward to her new life and Barbara has a beautiful new look with her hair style. Congratulations on your achievements and thank you for your hard work producing the wonderful videos.
It's a lot of fun making the videos. Not easy to film what it takes to refit this large sailing ship and we do have a pretty rough audience. But as long as people keep watching and we're getting amazing comments like yours we keep making them
A wonderful episode and magic transformation! Your boatyard companion works carefully which is nice to see. I hope you were able to get some scrap value out of that mast to put toward drydock fees. That’s a lot of steel!
G'day Crew, Removing the old mast is a step in the right direction for Flying Coney, You'll soon have her rigged the way you want . Cool episode. Hey Barbara, the new hairdo looks really nice ,makes you look younger too , woo hoo. Bet Daniel's a happy man . Respect....!
A sailing ship of Flying Coneys size really needs two masts. With that one little mast upfront she never looked quite right and without context a little bit small. What is your favorite rig type?
Interesting project. It crossed my mind that the hole where the old mast was, presumably goes all the way to the keel. It looked big enough that it might make a convenient spot for a hatch that might make ventilating the vessel in case of smoke or whatever way more efficient. It might even be useful as a way to lower/stow (dumbwaiter)smaller items below that would otherwise have to be carried down the stairs, or be a convenient location to run wires, etc. Anyway, I for one appreciate the technical anecdotes. I'm always wondering how much all these activities, parts, etc. cost.
A brigantine that size will be rather a large ship for just two people to handle. I'm glad to see the old mast was removed without incident. I was a bit uncomfortable with the lack of head protection around a suspended load (the mast.) What a huge job this is turning out to be.
Flying Coney will carry about 12-15 people. She's way too large for two people the only exception is as a houseboat. Although it's easily possible to move the ship from one place to the next with just two people and we're enjoying doing so, it doesn't make sense.
I had a sailboat for many years 35’ with a 3 cyl diesel engine and a sloop reg , if I owned flying Cody I would make her a graft rig Schooner with 3-4 jib sails forward and topsails , this would be much easier to sail , better to weather and you wouldn’t need to go up the mast to set sails and she would look much better and have less rigging !
You're loosing a bit of speed upwind but the downwind performance is on another level. Especially on long oceangoing passages the square sails are almost no work. Once hoisted you can leave them alone for weeks and the ship will steer itself.
Mark - all of your points are correct, but this guy has his heart set on a rig that is more trouble, is more dangerous to handle, and has greater windage that brings even more problems. Marine design has even evolved adequate if not superior solutions to downwind passages than square sails. Maybe I am a sissy but I don't even like to be on the bow working a jib when the bleak sea gets nasty.
Thanks! Now she's at least looking like a proper trawler and I agree that in this configuration the aft deckhouse looks fine. We will keep the wheelhouse but we want to lower it a bit. Why would you keep the aft deckhouse?
We considered laying down the mast first but we don't fully trust the mechanism and it would've been difficult to find the balance point to lift it. So lifting it horizontally was a safer option and it's also what the pros at the yard recommended.
Looks very strange....without a mast....... BTW do you know the guys from Tigershark boatworks? They have a steel schoener from the 40's and are in leeuwarden based..
Of course we know them. Both boats were converted into sailing ships in Amsterdam in 1977. So also they know the previous owner of Flying Coney and the ship very well. Without the mast she now looks like a trawler and way better than as a motorsailer.
I have seen a CHINEESE JUNK with square sails out here sportsfishing from time to time.Viewing from S.W. Vancouver Island in Westcoast Canada! CHEERS from HERE!!!
A Junk rig is quite the opposite of what we want. Yes it's a good rig but in my opinion not very interesting. We want a rig that can be handled with manpower and considering our displacement a Junk rig would be quite scary.
Do I understand the new mast will mount on top of that plate that was welded ? I would of thought the mast should go thru the top deck down to the keel ( or there abouts)???
if you add a smaler shorter mast direktly behind the formast you can still use a Gaff sail. normally that was used on the Mizzenmast wich was then called a Snow examples are HMS Ontario and USS Niagara. i also once saw French Ocean Class First Rates using that on all Masts to reduce the crew needed on Deck for Battle Sails to avoid Sharpshoters located high up in the Rigging. the Gaff on the Formast then would remove all kind of lines for Tacking on all the Flying Sails inbetween the mast down alot.
A brigantine sails quite well with just the staysails hoisted. This is the perfect configuration if you're shorthanded. If you fly a gaff sail on the forward mast as well this would be called a tops'l schooner. Also a very interesting rig but a brigantine offers better performance overall and Flying Coney is big enough for this rig configuration.
1.6t of mast? Wow... cant wait to see your ship with the new masts you are getting, but it totally makes sense to make the deck first and put on the masts later as they would be in the way all the time otherwise. How much will your two masts weight, do you already know?
steel masts for that height of rig ?? i wouldnt want to know how that would influence ships righting moment , or did you mean aluminum ? what do you estimate the cost for a full rig to be ? and timeline of this project.
We're a sailing ship and not a yacht. Steel masts are the way to go. They're a lot lighter compared to wooden masts and we do have enough ballast for a traditional tall ship rig. I really can't think of any tall ship with aluminium masts.
If the new mask is going in the same place where the old one was. Why did he do a good job in blanking off the round hole where the old mask was. Love the video 👍👍
We've removed the mast now and adding the rig will be one of the last steps in completing the project. So we try to do things decently even if it's just temporarily.
@ that’s fair enough. It’s just the unnessary work in removing it again, I can’t wait to see the finished product. Then on the other hand, I’ll miss you both. 👍😂
@ Although the new mast will be at the same position it will be a completely new mast. So at this point we will also remove the lower portion of the old mast. We will certainly continue making videos about boat handling, maintenance and traveling. But I'm glad that you enjoy the rebuild phase.
I really appreciate your efforts! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
First of all Flying Coney is probably too large for a We want to teach how to operate and sail a traditionally rigged tall ship. There will be no winches beside the anchor windlass. Obviously that's not possible on a junk rig. A lug rig with three masts would be traditional but Flying Coney is probably too large for this rig. If you know the Greyhound, well she's only half our displacement.
We wanted to have a project boat and Flying Coney has a rich history that would be lost if we haven't rescued her. Also a fully operational steel tall ship costs about 1.2 million.
There’s an old saying which I think it’s fairly true😂 when ships were made of wood and men were made of steel. Now it’s ships are made of steel and men are made of wood 😂
your spending a lot of money on flying cooney when her use by date has expired having watched and seen the amount of rust in the hull wouldn't it be better to put your money into something that is going to last longer than a couple of years
She's been sounded and surveyed she's still as thick Overall as more modern hulls and she was designed to sail originally ... It also has it's own history... they've already given their reasons and logic. It's their choice 🤷🏻🧙🏼♂️. The one thing I might have done is keep a section from the mast top to make the bow sprit... It will be stronger and safer than wood and they can turn it into a safer working bow sprite. See this week's Sailing Uma interview in the Netherlands with another restoration and remodeling.
We want to rig Flying Coney as a schooner brig / modern brigantine with square sails on the foremast and gaff sails on the aft one. But what is your favorite sailing ship rig type?
My favorite one is one that stays afloat.?😊
That sounds like a suitable , attractive and manageable rig. Maybe a boom on the fore mast for really shorthanded trips. Brazil up the squares and sail like a schooner. Keeping flexibility in the sail plan to go with both conditions and ability of your crew will serve you well imho.

I think it looks better for now without that mast. But we are looking forward to seeing her with the new masts one day.
Looks like flying Coney will be a faster rabbit .🐰
Well done a briiiant video she looks different without looking forward she fully rigged again
I like your hairstyle Barbara❤
Looks good without that huge industrial mast. BTW.. I think you should keep the aft deckhouse.
Thanks! Now she's at least looking like a proper trawler and I agree that in this configuration the aft deckhouse looks fine. We will keep the wheelhouse but we want to lower it a bit. Why would you keep the aft deckhouse?
@@FlyingConey You would have a lot of additional floorspace for equipment or people.🙂
Molto utili le vele quadre, se si naviga in poppa!
that's some bad weather. rather typical for these shores right?
You can experience all 4 Seans on one single day here. But the most accurate description of the weather is one month of summer and 11 months of fall.
I question as to why the mast was lifted vertically? I would have thought being a tabernacle mast to lay it over would have been a safer option?
We considered laying down the mast first but we don't fully trust the mechanism and it would've been difficult to find the balance point to lift it. So lifting it horizontally was a safer option and it's also what the pros at the yard recommended.

Of course the masts will be stepped on the keel. We installed the plate just to stop the rain coming in.
@ I was wondering why the plate was welded in lace
I just want to say that the galley will be vital. The meals served should be memorable…
if you add a smaler shorter mast direktly behind the formast you can still use a Gaff sail. normally that was used on the Mizzenmast wich was then called a Snow examples are HMS Ontario and USS Niagara. i also once saw French Ocean Class First Rates using that on all Masts to reduce the crew needed on Deck for Battle Sails to avoid Sharpshoters located high up in the Rigging. the Gaff on the Formast then would remove all kind of lines for Tacking on all the Flying Sails inbetween the mast down alot.

Are you going to get new steel masts? or other material?
Definitively steel! They're more affordable, lighter and a lot safer than wooden masts.
Daniel did the scrap you ended up with have any value?
Steel has always some value and we got a little bit from the scrap dealer. It was about as much at it costed to remove the mast.

Can I ask a stupid question, WHY didn't you just buy a fully rigged sailing ship
We wanted to have a project boat and Flying Coney has a rich history that would be lost if we haven't rescued her. Also a fully operational steel tall ship costs about 1.2 million.

2 masts
There’s an old saying which I think it’s fairly true😂 when ships were made of wood and men were made of steel. Now it’s ships are made of steel and men are made of wood 😂
They removed the stabilisor, now the ship is not all- weather prove anymore. ( less value )
That's not how it works. The ship is more stable and more seaworthy now but less comfortable.
Easy to spot a man who’s not use to working with their hands
Less real time grinding please…
