Thanks Brian. I hope we can show the full range of volunteers and what they do in the next few films. It's fascinating.

Brilliant film, these ships company videos are so compelling, hope they are kept going as generating so much interest. Adding to the story of our saxon heritage, the nautical history of the saxon/old english is so important as an island. Well done all involved.

Nice cinematography, nice editing and a story well told. There must have been a lot of time and effort put in to make this entertaining and informative video. Its a great job you are all doing at Woodbridge. Well done all and thanks to Jon Seal in particular.

The smooth face of the stem(?) timber and the fit of the scarf - impressive! It’s interesting to imagine the lifts the original shipwrights would have used (lacking chain engine hoists). Thanks for the video!

Yes, fascinating. You can't help but admire their skill and ingenuity, can you?

Exciting work! At 9:52, is that a knot in the stem joint?

Have you men had your dna done to ascertain whether you are related to the Anglo-Saxon settlers of East Anglia?? Me and my family had ours done and on my fathers side, we are Anglo-Saxon, Scandinavian and Slavic! My dna tests linked me to the Billingtons from a former hamlet near Stafford. So I guess I am a Mercian haha. Continue the fine work fellas. Rob.
