This is just what I need, I have a personal challenge in August and yes the "Courage" to do it (start) is indeed the greater than the "Courage" needed to finish. Thank You
A lot of people who had more 'suitable' boats and who looked like they had trained a lot didn't finish. Leo looked like he does most any other day. Quite remarkable really. Reminds me of when two of my friends did a marathon. She's a runner and trained a lot, he's a farmer and said he didn't have time for training. He virtually carried her over the line, then drove them home, put her to bed, and went off to do the jobs he'd postponed while he was out.
I guess daily woodworking isn't too bad for your back and arm strength as well as stamina. Mentality is also quite important and Leo's is... well, no words needed.
@@skyak4493 Indeed. And there would not have been many boats finishing ahead of him which one person could put in the water, load in their car or stow on their cabintop single handed. If any!
Both of the boys even just having the courage to enter that race is special. (You'd know you're gonna hurt in that race). So Leo finished 53rd in 25hr 41 min. Did anyone see Pat's race time?
Leo may be British and call that his home. But I'd bet he's always going to have a soft spot in his heart for northwest Washington and Port Townsend specifically.
@@EyeOnTheTV Hopefully bore found that " The JOY Is In The Journey ! " This Whole Channel seems an Ode to that theme . ? Was it about a year into this "journey" that Leo acknowledged, had he realized up front the magnitude of the project, He'd likely have given it a pass, but he was glad that he has been drawn into it. I hope that's more true than evah. B-)
My uncle lived on the Kitsap Peninsula near Seattle. I went out there as a kid on a Greyhound bus with aunts, mom, grandma, took 3 days. Then on a plane with just my brother. I loved seeing Mt Rainier and the temperate rainforest. The sea coast and city. In Michigan we have our freshwater coasts and a pretty big boating culture on inland lakes. There's a big history in bigger ships on the Great Lakes. Mackinac Island is well worth a trip. Nearby one way is Soo Locks & Pictured Rocks. Traverse City wineries in the other direction.
Of all the people who I totally under estimated it is Paddy who just amazed me with his physical strength and mental endurance.What a guy. Well Boss you didn't do to badly either. Just marvellous and best wishes from an old wreck back home.
I run 100k and 100 mile ultras and your experience reminds me of them. The emotional swings are wild and you’ll hit the wall a lot. You’ll question why you’re doing it and it’ll seem like a dumb idea and then a moment later you’ll feel on top of the world. Seeing you in the dark, alone, tired, admiring a view of nature that few see, and with stubborn determination to finish was awesome. It’s such a unique feeling to be there. Way to go, Leo
I'm always impressed by the way you explain traditional terms to those in your audience that may not be familiar. You don't condescend, and you then use the correct term going forward. A great skill to have and cultivate...
My late Mother in law was from the Kitsap Peninsula (Suquamish) in Washington State. Her stories from the 1930's include multiple trips to Seattle with her sister and others (friends etc.) to Seattle in a rowboat. There were other people doing it at the same time, but when you are out there in the Sound, It is a big place. Weather is immediate and treacherous. She told of plenty of times being disoriented and panicked, but just keeping on and finding their way. Of course, when you have been there multiple times, you get to recognizing landmarks and landfalls, and places to put in and rest. They were just teens at the time and I loved hearing the stories of folks having to do what they had to do with little or no money.
Wouldn't worry about the video being mostly about the race - this project is about more than just the boat building, it's about the people and culture surrounding sailing, boats, ships, etc., and without vignettes like this the entire experience would be much less fulfilling. This type of thing really brings depth and meaning - keep it coming! Thank you
Leo sailed a 24ft Folkboat with no motor, no gps and no one but himself across the Atlantic. Determination, courage ... guts, was never in doubt. There was a plastic sextant, so there was that little bit of a cheat 😉
Leo, I am not a sailor but I do live on a 34' Silverton motor yacht that I rebuilt. However, long before I lived on the water, I was a long distance hiker and mountain climber. Your adventures in this boat race reminded me of my hiking days along the Appalachian Trail. Thank you for showing us that commitment is instilled in all facets of your being, not just in boat building. A lesson we all should be willing to learn.
Many years ago in Sausalito I owned a Whitehall rowing dingy built locally. I was lucky enough to meet Peter Bird from the United Kingdom who took a larger rowing boat built by the same person and rowed single handed from San Francisco to Australia non stop. Blessings
One of my favorite things about your videos is your choice in music. It always fits. I also really appreciate that you put the info for all the songs in the description for each video. Although I know St. Anne’s Reel when I hear it!
Thank goodness for people who do lunatic things like that race 😁😁 They're the same people who take on projects like rebuilding an old wooden boat. Completely mad, but brilliant at the same time.
Laughed super hard when she asked how leo is doing and patty replies "he's far far away" he totally knows leo's grind ahead of him and how screwed he is! Love these guys :)
I can't imagine another project/production to ever rival the body of work Leo and company have put together here. This is a masterclass in everything...incredible!
Loved it! Thank you for bringing us along on the race, and kudos to both of you. Leo, you’re a legend for tackling it in an 11 ft, non sliding seat dinghy! Just the right kind of crazy, and what an epic adventure.
Wow! Rowing 70 miles is like doing 2 and 1/2 marathons with your arms! Congrats and major props to you and Patrick; that is quite the accomplishment! Very impressive!
I'm enormously impressed with the resilience of Paddy and Leo finishing that race. I would consider a 70 mile bike ride an epic and challenging adventure but rowing that distance?.. no way. That is amazing.
I just watched the video of dismantling of your capstan. Man Leo you sure know how to put people to work. 6 hours of smashing and blasting with a torch and it still wasn't done. It will be beautiful when complete.
What amazing young men Leo and Patrick are, the sea is certainly in their blood. Thank you Leo, for making an interesting story of a boat rebuild even more interesting with the effort and endurance involved in the very real race to row the boat ashore.
I absolutely love that Leo takes the time to experience some of what the Northwest US has to offer other than being where Tally Ho was found and is being rebuilt!
I smile every time you say you bought her for $1. I am sure she's cost you more than that every single minute since. I thought you'd launch before Arabella, but she's launching next week and I'll have to find another wooden boat series to watch. I used to row, when I was younger. You really made it hard for yourself with your choice of boat, it's not just the waterline length, it's the lack of a sliding seat and somewhere solid to strap your feet too. But still, she's a lovely little boat. You are really working very hard for every mile compared to people in sculls, and it's a real drag rowing into a wind. I've done both, but nowhere near the miles you did. Even when I was doing an hour on the rowing machine and cycling 30 miles every night I don't think I could have done this. I'm impressed.
True but Arabella is a long way from being in a sailing condition so overall I think they will both be 100% finished at the same time- PS Arabella had to move out
Dear @@mausplan3890 👍👌👏 Exactly! 2) What do you mean by: Arabella had to move out? Thanks in advance for answering. Best regards, luck and health in particular.
@@stubstoo6331 Ah, that's what you mean. Yes, we all know that his mother is very ill. I feared that even more pressure on Steve's shoulders would make him brake or at least burn him out too much. But although one can see his exhaustion in and especially around his eyes, he is still going strong. He is obviously happy, that he is able to have his mother aboard a launched Arabella. 2) Offended? Why do you think I could be offended? Sincerely yours.
@@mausplan3890 Arabella is going in the water with her lines looking rough as old boots. Amazing achievement and all that, but the fairing job and finishing was poor.
One of your best episodes and I feel really lazy after watching this. I think you are all doing amazing work and overcoming huge challenges with personal growth and great teamwork.
Every piece and part of that boat is a work of fine art. My grandfather would have been very happy to know that the beautiful boats of his day are not gone and forgotten. Even better is that young generation are keeping it alive and thriving. Excellent job Skipper Leo.
Congratulations Leo and Patrick! Speaking for an audience of one, the race was easily as entertaining and informative as the usual fascinating content! Cheers!
As the longest boating distance I ever did in one go was half a marathon distance in a canoe, I can only imagine what it means to do five times the distance. Congratulations you both!
Can't wait to see you guys throwing all that cloth to the wind ! That picture of her under sail needs to be replicated ! I'll probably weep at the sight
This channel never fails to deliver on things like accomplishment, stamina, ambition and top class workmanship and attention to detail. Not to mention the development of character and the mentoring of young peoples endeavors. It also provides a counterbalance to all the toxic negative news that emanates from the US. One day I would hope to visit. Congratulations to the racers, that is quite an accomplishment that will stay with you throughout your lives.
Tremendous amount of respect for the accomplishments that you and Patrick made in completing the rowing race. I am dully impressed. Congratulations on your finishes!
Congratulations to you both. An amazing achievement. Leo must be a good judge of character. Who would have guessed that when Patrick first arrived on this project, he would have evolved into what we see today.
Leo, it was great to see you on the water. As a sailor, you've been on land for the last 5 years working on Tally Ho so taking one video to show the durability of the tender and your usual 100% in everything you put your mind to is just fine with me, and I dare say the rest of the fans.
Bulwarks, Spars, Capstan rebuild, talk of sails ! This is all getting along towards a launch !!0 Amazing footage as ever of this amazing project - followed and supported from the start. Then you and Paddy go and blow us all away with an EPIC 70 miles rowing marathon - incredible !!! Thanks to Leo and Team - it doesn't get much better than this - on land anyway.

@@baptisteb7144 my old 32ft wooden trawler was sold for £1. It save me thousands in having her scrapped and the buyer, my stepdads nephew got a spare engine from her. But it does make me sad to see her rotting away at the head of the fleet (a mooring cut for our trawlers) But I do still have her compass ✌️🇬🇧
@@robcornelius555 I’d like to ask Leo “What were you thinking?” when he was first doing the rebuild at the old shop. Or was it always his intention to just get to the hull stage and then bring Tally Ho to the shipwright shop for the next stages?

Well done Paddy and Leo for this epic race! I'm loving the videos, and seeing the comments about how much the rebuild is costing, I have now become a Patreon. I know that not everyone can afford to do so, but at the lowest level of £2 per video, this will be less than a couple of pints of beer a month, and well worth it in my opinion.
Outstanding race for both Leo and Patrick it seems like the emotional experience is something you will both remember for a long time to come. I’ve only been to PT once and it was quite some time ago when I helped produce a documentary and we were invited to show at the Port Townsend Film Festival. We screened the film in the upstairs hall of the Northwest Maritime Center and it’s nice to have a small connection to Tally Ho’s construction in a small way. There is a distinct joy from watching the progress and following along for the past 4 years. Leo, you and your team are consummate artists.
Absolutely incredible crew you have Leo. You are living a life few can accomplish. I look forward to the Tally Ho launching and hopefully one day I will see you in person during your travels.
Its nice to be able to track the emotional effects of a project like this. Stress from financial pressure. Then the elation of rowing and finishing the race. Ending with a bit where Leo seems to be bursting with excitement about the future. Great series, amazing that you have documented it from the start! What a fantastic channel!
Looking back from several decades older than you - I am incredibly impressed. Even in my most athletic days, I could never have completed that race. Congratulations! Also, how about unshipping your prop and then racing? Would they take you then?
Leo has an good response to anyone complaining about rowing Tally Ho's dingy in the future.
It's a really impressive accomplishment
In the ultra running world we have a saying, "The miracle isn't that I finished. The miracle is that I had the courage to start." Well done boys.
This is just what I need, I have a personal challenge in August and yes the "Courage" to do it (start) is indeed the greater than the "Courage" needed to finish. Thank You
So true of so many things in life.
Applies to the boat too
Spot on.
You finished more than halfway up the field in a not terribly competitive boat. Very well done.
A lot of people who had more 'suitable' boats and who looked like they had trained a lot didn't finish. Leo looked like he does most any other day. Quite remarkable really.

On a waterline handicap alone it looks like Leo would have won on 'corrected time'.
@@skyak4493 Indeed. And there would not have been many boats finishing ahead of him which one person could put in the water, load in their car or stow on their cabintop single handed. If any!
@@Gottenhimfella Props to the Dutchess of D. for a top-notch campaign also. I suspect he was the first single handed boat to finish.
Leo, finishing that race in that little boat says a lot about your determination!
and also rebuilding tally ho from the ground up
absolutely
Both of the boys even just having the courage to enter that race is special. (You'd know you're gonna hurt in that race).
So Leo finished 53rd in 25hr 41 min.

I know that not everyone can afford to do so, but at the lowest level of £2 per video, this will be less than a couple of pints of beer a month, and well worth it in my opinion.
you have the heart of a lion, and the sense of a goose, to undertake that in such a short little boat
Bravo to Leo and the Duchess! Well done!
Absolutely outstanding that you did it in the dingy. Well Done!
Congrats to both of you for finishing what is obviously a very grueling race.
What a feat ! Congratulations Leo and Patrick !
Outstanding race for both Leo and Patrick it seems like the emotional experience is something you will both remember for a long time to come. I’ve only been to PT once and it was quite some time ago when I helped produce a documentary and we were invited to show at the Port Townsend Film Festival. We screened the film in the upstairs hall of the Northwest Maritime Center and it’s nice to have a small connection to Tally Ho’s construction in a small way. There is a distinct joy from watching the progress and following along for the past 4 years. Leo, you and your team are consummate artists.
Absolutely incredible crew you have Leo. You are living a life few can accomplish. I look forward to the Tally Ho launching and hopefully one day I will see you in person during your travels.
14:43 The cinematography on this channel is off the charts. What an amazing shot. Well done Leo.
That little PT nesting dinghy is great!
Its nice to be able to track the emotional effects of a project like this. Stress from financial pressure. Then the elation of rowing and finishing the race. Ending with a bit where Leo seems to be bursting with excitement about the future. Great series, amazing that you have documented it from the start! What a fantastic channel!
I liked this video very much. These 'side trips' you show us from time to time are great don't stop.
Hats off for both of you finishing such a long rowing trip.
Fantastic accomplishment you guys. Every episode gets better and more. 🇨🇦
Amazing! I am speechless. Congratulations.
Amazing effort by both Patrick and Leo!! Nice to see a bit of your surroundings too. The spars are looking great.
Huge congratulations on finishing the race Leo!!! As we say in horse endurance riding... to finish is to win!!!
Looking back from several decades older than you - I am incredibly impressed. Even in my most athletic days, I could never have completed that race. Congratulations! Also, how about unshipping your prop and then racing? Would they take you then?
53rd out of 117 is a very respectable finish with that little boat. Well done.
Great accievement by both of you on that passage - no mean feat!
Leo, my hat is off to your. Paddy and all the rowers. You did it, which proves one never finishes if one never starts. You rock.
Kudos to the tally ho race team. Great job guys. Truly epic.
amazing stuff, thanks Leo and friends...
