Man, am I dumb or what. I understand nothing.

great explanation. better than our college professor. who doesn't know how to use parallel rulers but calls himself a Captain.

A splendid series of images - with hands on information. Why not plunge in and feel the whole experience - really. Fare thee well - on life's journey.

I was given a length of hand-made rope last year and wondered what to do with it. So last week I made an Ocean Mat table centre, using Des Pawson's book Knot Craft. I've used his book for many rope projects. Keeping ancient crafts alive.

What an interesting museum. I've wanted to learn more about ropes and knots.

Please add me to the grateful few that have their work on display at Des's museum. As I was watching this interesting video, at about 5:18 into it, the table of knotwork was so interesting, I went back to inspect it again. I was especially interested in a key fob that looked like a few I had made back in the 70's and as I enlarged the image, I saw my name on the ticket and almost fell out of my chair. I will have to start making some more, though at 77, I might be a little slower doing it. What a surprise and much gratitude for including my small work alongside those other fine examples of the art of knot tying. (The name on the ticket is Bill Bogel, as is mine.)

Appears to be one of the better instructional videos available here, or at least would be with UNDERSTANDABLE AUDIO!

jong = junk Page 208 In the Chinese rivers and seas you see sailing ships with square sails, called junks. pan-jang = long lon-jong = oval shaped

How can. Where is this please!

Thank you. As I am a high steel rigger, theatrical Rigger, Arena, Rigger. I very much appreciate where my craft comes from. Please keep the love coming on. Just a beautiful life in still.

First time I've heard you speak. Can't tell you how many times I've ripped my sides laughing at your memories just brilliant.

Could you sail one of these to the Med?

Simply superb.

Brilliant 🎉

So it's set on the staysail halyard right? Then is there a tensioned stay that runs up from the base of the mast that it's attached to so the yard doesn't swing forward? I've seen a number of diagrams of 19th century yachts with square sails rigged, I'm really curious how yours is rigged.

Very Educational & Informative! Thanks! Who was the one speaking from the Classic Sailor Team? Dan? Peter? Guy? Andrew? Nick? or Sam?

Oh, man! Can I come and learn all these skills? Surely an effort should be made to train young folks these skills, and put into use, making true-to-history rigging, then shown to the world how things were back in the days of SAIL. I imagine the whole educated crew in these skills, going round, displaying their beauty, practicality, in every seaport .

Crossed the Atlantic in Wyvern in 1981 then Hiraeth.

Do you think it works better than a spinnaker?

Proper Presentation, Chap!!! Top Shealf , Mate . Wild Rose , Wisconsin, U.S.A.

phew!!

Cherish the magic of vision coupled with guildsmen class craftsmen on every issue. To be aboard such a treasure on such a race, we'll that's a blessing to take with you always. ❤️

Cool, but how well does it perform compared to a spinnaker?

The coils for marlin on the rope are very interesting! We always had the on the serving mallet (if it's written that way, I only know the german words like Kleedkeule or Trensen, Smarten und Kleeden for the three parts of the process).

THANK YOU! APPRECIATED! BLESSINGS!

Great explaining, thanks, found one in my both, now I know how to use it

so beautiful. I am lucky enough to have live parts of my life on the north shore of Boston and to have infrequently sailed off the coast of Maine, off the coast of Essex County, north of Boston and one memorable cruise from Miami Florida to the Keys and back.

how in the world could an entrance fee possibly even begin to cover the cost of building Her.If I had to throw a number at it,I'd start at 25 million and go from there, although that number is probably low.What an amazing feat.Look at how close the main frames are spaced.This girl would have been practically indestructible.

👍👍

Can it be used for a sprung deck?

Por qué ese nombre tan particular y latino

Do you except volunteers.?

My Friend owns a Thames Sailing Barge I am helping him renovate the vessel although he has lived on the Barge for 3 yrs. It is Moored at Northfleet Marina/Boat Yard. Lady Jean is the name. I found this video very informative and look forward to many more. His Barge is exactly the same model and I am absolutely loving the experience.

Three sausage rolls, a doughnut, and a beer. All whilst sailing on a classic sailors' dream. I would do that.

Very helpful and well explained.Thank you!

Having spent many weeks in and around Ipswich over the years and have a real interest in knots and the allied skills, I can't believe that I have never heard of this museum. Thankyou for the video

Great contribution.

What a wonderful museum! Thank you for your efforts in preserving these amazing historical crafts. This makes me love my KZfaq "tangents" even more, as I got here from a video of Mikko Snellman making a Sailor's Slingshot.

Nice video ,microphone is too far ,,little loud please my volume is all up..)) Thanks !

Enjoyed that - beautiful boats - wonder if that's the same Cudmore who had fruit shops in Cork !

LWR hull keeling the sails please please please

Man and boy. Well, just don’t let the cancel culture see this! Nice work.

A lovely and interesting video, bravo

Thanks!

Por un barco así soy capaz hasta de hacerme kirchnerista. y pensar que el chorro de Jaime, como buen ignorante peroncho, se compró un aparato a motor.

this is an extremely important thing you are doing. thank you. I'm so glad to have found you. for the last few years I have developed an addiction to the universe of knots and rosewood. tying, and learning everything about knots and the materials used makes the world fall away. I aspire to visit your museum and am glad that you record yourself as a docent. your stories and information about the collection are as important as the the collection itself. I will now be diving into your library and wallowing in your well presented and beautifully captured on video presentation, you have the perfect voice for the subject and it is captured nicely my compliments to everyone involved.

Video stupendo con nodi straordinari...- Bravissimi...- 👍🚩⚓🚩
