<p>[QUOTE="Mountain Man, post: 24486541, member: 94733"]Not sure how many saw a link I had in a post, about this, but I've been following Leo and his crew, showing step-by-step the restoring of the 1910 Tally Ho sailing vessel and having been a sailor in the past, found/find it very interesting. The details and fitting of wood components is amazing. I love wood working, but wouldn't have the patients to do what they are doing. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@SampsonBoatCo" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.youtube.com/@SampsonBoatCo" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/@SampsonBoatCo</a></p><p>Any one that loves woodworking and/or sailing, would enjoy watching some of these videos. </p><p><br /></p><p>So, what does this have to do with coins? Well, on all of my sailboats, I've always made sure a coin was fastened to the step where the base of the mast is installed, for good luck. I hope to visit Port Townsend, WA on my way home from my last view of the Pacific Ocean, and will take him this coin, hoping he will place it under the mast when they step it.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1550256[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1550255[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>The ship was originally built in England, so I thought a coin from that location and year, would be appropriate.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
