        I'm thinking that the people in that area are going to get concerned about another English invasion. Not far from where he's building is Friday Island - which is the place where the last time we went to war with the UK.... over a pig.....

              I have been watching this guy for a while and recently he has taken on a bigger project, not as big as Leo's but still interesting.

              It was started on it a month ago, this is the first one. He updates weekly.

              I'm just going to post the link so this thread is not totally corrupted!

              In this video I look at whether it makes sense to buy an old steel boat. In the end I decided just to buy one and find out for myself.This video is a part of...

                  maybe it's something in the water up there.... Anyone who has read John Steinbeck will know this boat

                  oh yeah, added complexity - it was under water for 7 months and has been underwater twice.

                    Thanks for the keeping up with the BangSail thread, hate to say it but has become some of the best content in General Discussion to me.

                    • I admire anyone who takes on such a Herculean task.... glad to hear you enjoy watching it as well.

                      this is interesting - how they lifted the cabin off, obviously, these folks are pros....

                          • this is an interesting comparison because we have Leo who took on the Herculean task basically on his own and has grown into a shipyard. On the other side, the Western Flyer is a pro-built project that is on the same path as Leo (replace every stick). My money is on Leo finishing first - but we'll see....
