Seeing garret use his hand to block the sun with his backwards hat is hilarious.

All the years I’ve lived here Ruthy I’ve NEVER seen the bridge down!!! And you got it on video!

Haha it's usually early in the morning but Reid helped me out and called me when he saw it down knowing I've been wanting to capture it!

Designer George is looking down on you both saying " this is what I had in mind when I drew these plans up, a young couple with energy, and enthusiasm and the craftsmanship to match these beautiful lines"

What a beautiful boat with the mast and bowsprit up!

With the addition of the bowsprit she is looking more like a proper gaff rigged boat. One more not so tall stick toward the aft end and you will be almost ready to sail. Really nice work.

BADASS, ? Sure is..... Love it. Tropics.... Yea BABY !!!! Bring it on.

12:53 proud Papa.

The bowsprit is so cool!

Really proud of you two. Making so much progress.

Wow........ way beyond "Bad Ass"........... Can't wait to see her fully rigged out and under sail. You guys rock.............

The bowsprit does look bada**!

Got to say I am impressed with your skills and I like the bow sprit nice work Garret.

That was some serious back pocket work on the mast boot. You are a fine. boat Wright, with a good crew. Ruth is always so pleasant to the viewers. It feels like she is inviting us to pitch in and she carefully explains what the plan is before you begin. You have a real winner there. Good women are hard to find, and when you do find one grab her by the ear and never let go. God speed....

Arrggg, thar be much better places to grab than her ear, matey. Try her hand or heart, your much more likely to get a better reaction.

Smiles are getting bigger as you guys progress.

Lookin' good you two. Love it.

Seeing this boat sail is going to be monumental!

I'm with you on the bow sprit gives me a boost to see it also.

GREAT!

Suddenly, with that bowsprit on she’s looking like a salty sea boat! I love how mocking it up and getting just the right angle gives you guys so much happiness and motivation! Definitely the right thing to do!

Now that's what you call a classic sailboat. Just Beautiful!

Its a beautiful boat!

During these bad times it is great to see your story, a story that gives me and I am assuming others hope. Experiencing two people that are truly in love makes it even better. By the way Ruth your editing is amazing!

Amazing I dont want the episodes to stop . Great effort all round I especially like how there no short cuts taken which come through Garrets work ethic. Fantastic .

I love that Im so far behind that I can just click next. Thank you!

Loved it.

Yep the bowsprit makes her look proper - badass...

dude, I couldn't help but laugh at that shot of you shielding your eyes from the sun with your hand while you have your hat on backwards, your doing a great job guys!

A proper mini pirate ship, in a good way!

congratulations guys good job. Nino

It is amazing how you can turn a whole week worth of work into 16 mins of condensed joy for the rest of us. My Thursday morning routine consists of having a coffee while watching Salt and Tar with my 8 pound Pomeranian on my lap. Not a bad way to start the day. I can't wait for the episodes to start from some tropical paradise.

Thanks guys. I think I speak for many when I say that I needed a “big boost in moral” right now.

Bringing the bow sprit up in line with the top of the piling as on the video will look spot on, as Garret said another foot. Things are really starting to come together now.

Looks like a lot of work, God bless ya. Love ur videos

Looking better and better all the time.

I bet the new work shed will really make life easier on board . I'm waiting for Garrett to build the companionway stairs that will also be a red letter day . Boats looking saltier every episode !

Talk about the ultimate phallic symbol!!!!

I am glad the marina is helping your a little here and there...you have put them on the map. Even i have gone to their website a couple times...it is a cute area.

She's a thing of beauty. It makes my heart race and I'm not even involved.

I see you're trying to save the pinky.

Like Garrett said, "That's F$%@ING BADASS!" Really awesome guys!

While following along on your channel its easy to overlook the sheer tenacity that's been required to continue on this project. Your experience is akin to being in the peace corps or military in that much of what passes for normal life gets sacrificed while you achieve your goal. It truly is a different way of life that has value that many might not recognize. I appreciate you sharing it.

Something I don’t understand, great content that you provide, Beautiful project and an uplifting spirit and that sweet Swab. Why do you have less than 50,000 subscribers? Swab alone is worth at least 100,000. but keep up the great job your uplifting videos get me very excited when I see them pop up. I love the bowsprit. Along with the mast she’s becoming a real sailing lady.

Yes!!! She really needs her bow sprit to more reveal her beauty. Sure lookin' forward to the deadeyes.

Yeah, I know there will be collars and chains and etc. on the bowsprit when it's permanently installed, but MAN! does that thing look badass on the boat! Glad you stuck it there for a glimpse, Garrett. Thanks!

Man, that looks SO different with the bowsprit in place!!! :-)

Looking GOOD guys. Every time I check in with you all, I hit like before I start the daily log of your adventure. A couple of videos ago Swab was standing on the bow looking Mighty. To have a figure head of him on your bow would be great tribute to “his” boat and crew

She's really starting to look like a sailing vessel. Great content, great production, went well with my AM coffee.

you guys absolutely rock love your channel love you guys ATB Mark uk

Hellz yeah! NOW she's lookin good. I'm excited and it's not even my friggin boat! Really looking forward to the next literal step. 😎

Kinda all over the place on this one. I know, we've seen ports put in, and that's really no big deal, but it would have been nice to see the bow-sprit put in. Oh well, maybe on the final install. Nice to see some work getting done on the cabin top decking. See y'all on the next one, because, we're "coming along too".

what a bad ass bowsprit! wait til the jib net goes on...that will be about time to start the music! boat looks insane. the rig is even more impressive than i thought it would be. i sure hope they will allow you to sail her when you are finished!! as long as your both wearing masks, it should be ok...hahaha... what a world.

So that railroad bridge IS still functioning! Ha. Solid work guys, hope all is well!

And the sprit ties everything together! Love it!

I've been wanting to see the bowsprit mounted for ages also lol

The bowsprit looks "Bad Ass" and cute at the same time! That was worth all that hard work.

You both continue to impress... on many different levels... energy, courage, foresight, and a natural love for each other. Enjoy!

Swab needs a fan page 😁

🇨🇦, great stuff

I been following from the beginning. It’s so good to see people stick to a project

Been looking forward to the next episode. Have watched all the videos and can't wait to see her sail.

Badass indeed.

Thats one sweet lil ship you got there!!

exactly! the bowsprit's gotta follow the sheer.

Putting the Bowspirit up, just to check it out = SMART X 1000

Wow, what a proud little boat. Jaunty and yes, bad ass! So happy for you guys.

Bowsprit looks rad. Finish this girl and get her out to sea where she belongs. Like the old navy adage says: "Sailors belong on ships and ships belong at sea."

You 2 are a great couple to wake up to when you put out an episode, the bowsprit is a great visual progress morale booster. I love watching you bots and look forward to your next segment.

Ahh, another 'Rainy day indoor' project, weaving (sewing, knitting?) the bowsprit net by hand! All you need is a net maker's shuttle and ten years of experience! Nah, I learned pretty fast, they weren't 'factory' neat, but they caught us bait fish on the beach... She does look so much more 'Two Years Before the Mast' with her Sprit in place, You just have to start carving the nekkid mermaid to go beneath it...

Doing a big project moral management is the first priority.

I have been watching you guys, Tally Ho & Acorn to Arabella from the beginning. All from a mariners prospective. Years ago I had a set of plans to build a 35' Spray (Joshua Slocum). Other things got in the way of that project. After watching all of you guys building your boats I think back, 'man I had no idea the scope and dedication it took to complete such a project'. I have had several boats. Sail and power. Buy the way I'm a really good sailor and boat handler. Lived on a 52' Trawler for 14 years. I ran boats in the oil field (up to 130' work boats). So yes its in my blood. At 72 years old I have to live my dreams of building and cruising through you guys. So, hurry up and get sailing. On a side note, I can't understand why you haven't made a temporary ladder from the main deck to the the saloon. Ya'll are wearing me out crawling in and out of the living area. :) Keep the dream alive. Ruth, I, think Garrett knows what a great mate he has in you. Capt. Andy

Looking so awesome.I always woundered what was to fill that gap at the stern of the boat, well now i know.Thanks for connecting the dots.

Badass indeed!! Some great times ahead!! Thanks for the update. Kiwi fan.

You guys are bad ass. Your vids make me have faith in the human spirit. Great job guys!

At first look at the Bowsprit I wondered how many sleepy sailors were going to bonk their heads on it if they forgot to duck ! as they walked along the dock ,lol, but then you ( Ruth ) reminded me that it's going to be retractible ;-)

I was thinking the same but if Garrett can walk under it most all will be ok. Garrett is quite tall. In reality that 10ft can we worth a bit of cash.

unicorn boat is getting ready to impale those mighty waves :)

That bowsprit is bad ass! Everything looks fantastic! Thank you for another great video!

Awesome you two!!! Things are coming together and the plan is becoming clearer and clearer!! Can't wait to see you guys finished and sailing!!!

Becomes more and more real with each video. Looks great guys

People walking on the jetty "watch out for the head banger"

Geez...I think the Mast is happy to see you Ruth!....Oh, a Bow Sprit?..I see.

Just another step in the journey of life and now a place to store everything, work will be so much easier if you don't have to move bits from one end to the other. Stay Safe

that happens to me all the time if I am working on something finish half a project and then when I get back to it I realised man how did I do this exactly before 😂

Oh, Yeah! Love the bowsprit. Nothing says "shippy" like a bowsprit!! I pulled my mast for a refit and had to replace the Boot. The bottom, though tacked, should have a cord cinched tight around it. The deck block should have notch in it to cinch the cord into. Tar or paint. I ended up using about a 100 feet of 3/8 line and making a 6 inch Turks Head around the mast boot top. Looked cool. I'm sure you'll do cool stuff to your liking.

OMG it's coming along so fast. Looking forward to the next episode.

5:37 Never be shy about showing the 'improvised' solutions! If you don't want to deal with the armchair builders, just point out that its improvised, and then laugh at them 5 years later when you finally get around to replacing it!

It is badass no doubt.

Now she looks like a boat!

Exactly the bowsprit defo needs to follow the sheer.

Absolutely "bad ass"! Thanks for sharing

After having followed your journey from very early on, this is the episode for me where it all suddenly makes sense... the answer to the question of why build _that_ boat. So jealous - so pleased for you both :) Best. Bow. Sprit. Ever.

This vlog was dope! Keep up the good work. She's looking awesome!

I've never seen a traditional boat being built before and this is what I find so intriguing to watch. I love the work and support you give Garret and I second Steve Haintz comment.

That bowsprit tho... Epic!

That poor lonesome El Toro behind the ATV.

Keep smiling. It suits you both

Loving it guys. Keep it up !

Great again :) ... May you could watch the last episode of Wintergratan the marble music machine guy... It's quite an interesting one on self project management ;)

HI have been watching you for some time the boat is looking great looking forward to your next episode.

Boat is looking great, y’all!!

Merci , et bravo !!

yes a good job a milestone very proud
