Each episode you gents produce makes me feel like I am not alone in my love of classic hand tools, woodwork, sailing boats and the company of good friends. Thanks for visiting my house.
Do you live in Linston ? May I ask Wills does it cost you a fortune in cream teas and pasties they are so expensive these days. Not sure I could afford to have this pair visiting me on a regular basis not on my state pension. P.S. Are their visits to your house the reason it is taking so long to build this little dingy ?😃😃
@@trinitytoo Why thank you kind Sir, I rather felt I could have been a little more concise and definitely more eloquent, and I was trying to be witty but not too sure I succeeded. Still thats what you get after waking from my midday nap.

@@davidprocter3578 I think your gentle humour and wit is what makes your channel so special. I can see boat repair on other channels but I don't get the plain enjoyment. Same reason I like Roger Barnes' dinghy cruising videos. And I still learn a lot from you - I'm now dying to learn how to play with brass/bronze to add beauty to my rather plain jane (but wooden!) sailboat. :)
Lympstone, so near, yet so far! Nick Gates did a great series on tv a few years ago, which is mostly on YT now. Making and fitting that traveller was a work of art, let alone the mast gate.
Clever transformation of the brass mast stay. It looks very appropriate. A wonderful series of episodes of two 'dreamers' realising an amazing craft. Well done Sirs!
That's brilliant. Dream big gents, you'll get her across the estuary yet. That bronze rod split for a traveller is a thing of beauty. Looking forward to you showing more more of the hardware as you go.
Another excellent video. As I watch each one I pay particular attention to how you went about things such as suspending the seats, securing the soles, finishing the gunwale at the transom and so on. These things are all helpful as I continue work on my yacht tender replica.
Not sure about the pastie. When i first came back to england on my own visited my old local in topsham and was unable to purshase such a mundane lunch as a pastie. But then it was 35 years latter. Lympstone maybe a bit behind the times . Think joy even worked in a hotel / pub there. Isn't public transport a wonderfull thing. Sorry drifted off there. Thank you excellent vid.
15:15 Just as you put it in, I was thinking wedge. May be a bit of string or a little brass chain to forestall future bother. I wonder whether that other boats pintle up and gudgeon set up is easier than the standard. I like cutting the upper pintle a little short .

So well expressed I can't think of anything to add.

I'll check it out!
It may sound odd, but genre of your creation is poetry.
Wow, that's a really nice thing to say, thanks.
Really beautiful cleanup of the winch. Love seeing these transformations.
Thank you very much!
With every video, you make my resolve to build my own boat stronger.
Go for it!

Thank you very much!
Another, and another fine installment of boat build with two blokes hammering away, blow by blow towards their adventure. Thank you for this episode.
Glad you're enjoying it and thanks for the comment.
Man, I'd cut that mortise for the mast step a bit deeper in the older boat... Lovely video, as always.
Good call!

Last few days have gone very well, so not long now!
Wow, what a winch.
Great isn't it?
Always looking forward to your adventures of building this boat! Hurry up and get her wet.
Will do!!

Lympstone? Pitchforks, if you're lucky.
