What this video covers

Leo Goolden transports the 1910 Albert Strange yawl Tally Ho from Brookings to a new project site in Port Townsend.2:12 Because the destination lacks a travel lift, the crew utilizes a hydraulic trailer to move the vessel.2:13 The boat arrives on a Brown L trailer, requiring precise maneuvering to back the hull into the driveway.3:51 To stabilize the vessel for the rebuild, the team blocks the keel and installs support stands and props, mimicking standard boatyard storage procedures.4:03 Clearing the path for the transport requires cutting down trees that obstructed the driveway entrance.1:44 The transition from the hydraulic trailer to a permanent blocking system allows the crew to begin the restoration work at the new location.
