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”.
July 12th, 2025 – TALLY HO – Episode 222: Solo Sailing through Fjords, Tidal Rapids, and Endless Waterfalls
In this video, Leo sails solo through the rain to reach the natural beauty of Princess Louisa Inlet and the Malibu Rapids in British Columbia.
Mark Riley says:
Truly spectacular scenery, certainly a long way from Australia though, but I will get there.
Leo it is great that the boat is being used and isn’t a museum piece.
Just beautiful, though it looked very cold!
