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, lies under a shed in Sequim, WA, that Leo built next to the shop/apartment he rejuvenated—helped out occasionally by Poncho the parrot and Brian the dog.

I have asked my self the questions Leo asks. “is this Tallyho or a new boat”? At what stage
do replacing parts make a completely new whole. If I have a major organ replaced, say my heart, am I still me? If my car has a complete engine rebuild, is it the same car? I think Leo has answered these questions to my satisfaction. I had no idea that in addition to his many skills, that he is quite a philosopher. Anyhow, in the end I suppose I don’t really care. This is a brilliant and fascinating video series, featuring many brilliant and fascinating people. And they are rebuilding an old boat as well. Long live Tallyho.
