TALLY HO – Episode 155: 70 miles in TALLY HO’s Dinghy


Watch Leo Goolden as he brings back the 47’ teak-planked TALLY HO to the glorious gaff cutter she was when launched over a hundred years ago in England. This vessel, designed by Albert Strange, now lies in a shed in Boat Haven in Port Townsend, WA.

The backstories, and there are many, can be found on Leo’s websitehis Facebook postings, and on the Albert Strange Association’s TALLY HO pages.

In addition, Leo wrote a piece on TALLY HO for SOUNDINGS Magazine – “Tally Ho, Adventure! The Quest to Put a 1927 Fastnet Winner Back on the High Seas”.

June 10th, 2023 – TALLY HO – Episode 155: 70 miles in TALLY HO’s Dinghy

Leo and Patrick decide to become masochists and join “SEVENTY48” – a 70 mile rowing race from Tacoma to Port Townsend. We also catch up with the progress on TALLY HO’s beautiful mast and other spars, which are being built at the Northwest Maritime Center.

We have some other great Seventy48 videos you can check out, including canvasmaker Inger Rankins, who has completed the Seventy48 several times in a PT-11. (Spoiler alert: she beat Leo!)
