That was great. I'll certainly have a look at the other videos on that channel as I think they may be very helpful in understanding a lot more about my next build, the Pen Duick

 

Thanks for the link.

My new thing now is to play the videos on my computer as I work on my kit.  It’s nice and mood inducing.  
 

Really fascinating watching real planks go down.  Makes it look easy!

 Leo is a class act. He takes the time to explain the how and why of the piece he's making. There are no half measures when it comes to the work or materials invested in the Tally Ho. He could stand to see a barber more often but maybe that's jealousy talking. :)

Will you be building your Pen Duick from scratch or from the Artesania Latina kit? I think the AL kit is the only one for the Pen Duick. I'm having a heck of a time trying to understand the rigging for the gaff topsail on the Pen Duick. The AL instructions and plans are poor when it comes to the rigging.

Hi Bob, Yes it is the AL kit. It is this year's Xmas present but it will be a while before I get started on it. I'll be borrowing heavily from your build log and those others on here given how sparse the AL instructions are. I'll get a copy of the rigging  book by John Leather and maybe Leo will even have more helpful information about the TallyHo in his rebuild videos.

Be sure to start a build log when you begin. I'll be looking forward to following along. The Pen Duick is such a beautiful boat with a long, wonderful history.
