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 website, his 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”.
December 7th, 2024 – TALLY HO – Episode 206: Modifying the Capstan (with a Swiss machinist)
In this episode, Leo and his crew arrive in Canada and begin their winter cruising. But before they get far, they have to fix some issues with the chain stripper and the gypsy on the 114-year-old Capstan. Leo meets an amazing retired Swiss machinist who helps with some of the metalwork, and finishes the installation of the new parts while Marit sails the PT11 dinghy in a protected anchorage.
