British boatbuilder and sailor Leo Goolden – who bought Tally Ho for $1 and has worked with a dedicated group to restore her over seven years – was proud to show the beautiful boat and chat with visitors about her remarkable story. Fellow sailor, author and broadcaster Tom Cunli e was amongst fans who travelled from across the country to see her at Buckler’s Hard Yacht Harbour and was delighted to meet Leo for the rst time. Beaulieu River Harbour Master Wendy Stowe said: “We’ve had the pleasure of hosting Tally Ho on the have a special home. As many as 50 ships were built in the maritime village of Buckler’s Hard, where vessels for the Royal Navy were made from 1745 to 1814. at heritage is now being kept alive by Buckler’s Hard Shipyard Trust. e charity is working to educate followers about the art and cra of wooden shipbuilding, its history and traditional skills through research, demonstrations, displays and the preservation of historic slipways. During her stay on the Beaulieu River, Tally Ho joined a wooden boat rally which made an impressive spectacle while marking a celebration of traditional boatbuilding and seamanship skills. Each of the classic vessels has a unique story to tell and showcases the outstanding cra smanship needed to build and maintain them. Historic wooden boat RMMV Athlone Castle is also in Buckler’s Hard Yacht Harbour’s new boatshed workshop over the winter, for a restoration by Classic Shipwright Services. She is the last known wooden survivor of the Union Castle Line and traditional shipwright methods are being used to get her back to sea. Showcases of wooden boats a oat, such as the rally in September and open house in October, help to reach new audiences and continue the momentum of wooden boatbuilding for the future.
