Cosa tratta questo video

The 1910 gaff-rigged cutter Tally Ho successfully completes its first short motor under its own power following its recent launch.7:09 After moving the vessel from a temporary slip to a more permanent berth, the crew prepares the rig by installing custom throat halyard blocks stropped with Spectra and seized to prevent shifting.9:08 The project utilizes a transatlantic sail-making collaboration, with headsails produced locally in the United States and the mainsail and two topsails manufactured by Ratsey and Lapthorn in Cowes, Isle of Wight.17:52 The Ratsey and Lapthorn team employs traditional construction techniques, including hand-stitched brass rings, tapered rope tails, and Helvetia leather chafe patches, to replicate the 1927 rig configuration.21:58 Upon the arrival of the mainsail, the crew bends it onto the spars to verify measurements and fit.26:08 While the engine and sail installation mark significant progress toward summer sea trials, the restoration remains ongoing, with the complex capstan assembly still pending.16:02
