The North Star made it safely to Shelter Island and she made it up on the hard, now it's up to the crew to start taking her apart.

Why do you think there's so much ballast in the bow? Was she maybe stern heavy before?

@ih302 4 ай бұрын

The extra weight could possibly have been to allow her to break through light ice after riding up on it.

Great project! My buddy's boat had a coin under the aft bollard (steel bunker boat) and my boat which is the sister boat probably also has one under there also.

Hello from CT, I loved watching your video! Is there any footage of the boat inside tour, before you all started taking her apart?? also wish the video was a tad longer. Thanks, I am looking forward to more !!

We will have a bit more coming in the next episode but unfortunately we don’t have as much as we’d want, at this early stage it was only one person on camera capturing the whole team moving very fast, we’re a very small team pulling this channel together with personal funding/resources which unfortunately puts some limitations on the footage we’ve been able to get. Glad you like it!

I guess its commendable to save an old boat but wouldn't it make more sense to build an exact replica when the original is in such bad shape. It would probably cost less too. This is a HUGE project Good luck. Sorry for the criticism.

@FavouriteBoatworks 6 ай бұрын

The big things here is saving a piece of Canadian history, while the boat isn't going to be the same once she's repaired (because the boat is too far gone) we're at least saving as much as we can and giving her a second shot at life. ☺️

Unless the planking is in good condition, it is worthles to restore the boat. Wodden boats have their lifespan, unfortunately. Don't waste time and money on a wreck, even it's a very beautiful one.

@Deanmachine667 5 ай бұрын

Quite often it’s just the planks that need to be replaced. Any boat is worth being saved if someone loves it and has the means. Thankfully North Star has a very loving owner. Wooden boats are nearly the only boats that are worth saving and can last Indefinitely.

1984 was not a "silver" dollar suggest an original coin dated to ship be put in when done... She visited Ganges years ago and was a treat to see nice to see she gets much needed attention... Now how about making the St Roch seaworthy.....just sayin... hasn't she sat long enough ?
