Congratulations and best of luck with your Vertue class yacht . The Vertue yacht has great bones so its worthwhile restoring her back to voyaging standard. My partner and I have lived aboard our Vertue 'Tui of Opua ' for 26 years and still enjoying the life . Bruce

Congratulations on acquiring the famous Sparrow and thankyou for sharing her on KZfaq. I have one of her sister ships (no. 23) who is also getting a deep refit.... At least you have to worry about the engine not starting😅.

We’ve got the TALEISIN sister ship MORNING SONG here in California. Loved your video

I recall reading an article about Morning Song and the builder. Certainly a meticulous sea creature and I am glad to know she is sailing again. It was fun putting together this video and reliving some of the adventures. Fair winds

I love your paceship sailboat. I have a 1970 and will be making some videos summer 22. I sail in the great lakes my paceship is 20 foot. And injoy sailing it.

Did you swap your Contessa 26 for this beauty? Love your work here btw. Very much like my sailing adventures here in Maine where I'm all alone. Not much talking, just trying to make way and looking around. I currently sail on an O'Day Daysailer that I fixed up, but I'd like to get a Contessa 26 when I'm ready so I can do some real cruises further along the coast.

Funny how it goes. Other way around actually. Hess then Contessa. Now sailing a similar day sailor to your o’day. Glad the videos have reached their intended audience. Winter is hard :)

Beautiful vessell. I have been in love with Lyle Hess's design and avid reader of the Pardey's books which (I'm guessing) you've probably read as well? The oil lantern, the varnished wind vane trim tab, the classic windlass, the cosy interior, the hanked on front sails... All is inspiring and comforting to see that old ways still have a long way to go. Have a good holiday and end of year.

Beautiful Boat! As a young naval architect "back in the day," I of course studied several designer's works. Among my top favorite designers were Colin Archer, Carl Alberg, and of course Lyle Hess. The vessel you featured in this video is a classic Lyle Hess design and the Nova Scotia craftsmanship shows in it's construction. I'd be quite proud to be the owner of this boat. To me, there has always been something special about wooden boats. I played the US Navy "Sea Chanter's" rendition of "Haul Away Joe" while watching this video and I think that enhanced the viewing experience. Thanks for putting this video together - I very much enjoyed it. Merry Christmas!

Greetings from Downeast Maine! My family comes from Nova Scotia and PEI. Loved your video and subbed. I'm presently building an 18' pocket cruising sailboat of my own design (I'm a retired naval architect & marine engineer). I'll be sailing my new boat over to Nova Scotia, leaving home port of Milbridge, Maine and visiting Grand Manan Island en route (after the borders are reopened of course). I've been documenting the build on my 2 YT channels. Planning on spending some time in Lunenburg, near where you were sailing in this video. Looking forward to more of your videos. Thanks!

Hi there. Will check out your videos. Good luck with the build. A dream of mine one day, is to design and build as well. Fair winds

It's a good glimpse, but you'll get more views and subscribers if you add more footage. Little Duck X is unique and a video tour would be great! Adding "During Rough Seas" in the title will expand the possibility of interested viewers.

I do like the idea of using the oars as a tarp skirt tie-out rail, yet does not the curve of the gunwhale allow it to drip onto the thwart amidships? Promise me some more small boat cruising and I shall sub Sir. Very nice video. Thankyou.

Lovely documentation of natural beauty and serenity, my wife and I love Nova Scotia. I hope you will answer a few questions: I looked up Lichen and SV Lichen, can't find this boat... can you provide more information? Builder & model, year... did it come set up with oar locks, or did you add them?... were you always sleeping in the boat, or tent camping?...

Oarlocks and shorter rig than standard added by me. Original rig is deck stepped and now it is keel stepped with smaller main and jib. More of a “cruiser” than racer now. Sleep aboard or in tent ashore. Room for two
