Replacing the bow on a vintage wooden boat / Rebuilding Tally Ho EP52

Rebuilding a historic sailing yacht – Installing the Bow Assembly / EP52. Support; http://www.sampsonboat.co.uk/support Become a Patron;   / sampsonboatco   ----- EPISODE 52. A worrying thunder-shake in the new stem means I have to make and install a large graving piece. After making some wedges and cutting notches in the scarph joints, we assemble the Stem, Knee, Forefoot and Mast Step in the bow of Tally Ho… lifting the gigantic stem overhead with the forklift is quite an amazing sight! After a tiny bit of trimming we drill and counterbore the holes for the bolts, and then cover everything (including ourselves, of course) with a thick layer of tar before putting it together for the final time and bolting it up - the centreline is complete! ---- To become a Patron -   / sampsonboatco   To donate or support - http://sampsonboat.co.uk/support My Amazon Wishlist http://a.co/76y5IZP For sneaky previews of what’s going on in between Episodes, follow my FACEBOOK   / sampsonboatco   and INSTAGRAM   / sampsonboatco  .
