scottishboating: October 2010

http://scottishboating.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html

Everything about boating, more or less in Scotland. Saturday, 23 October 2010. Aground in style in Kyle. HMS Astute on sea trials. We have a brand new method of controlling the submarine, which is a platform management system, rather than the old, conventional way of doing everything of using your hands.". It's pretty lucky that the boat grounded on shingle, as the area is pretty rocky, so matters could have been much worse. Here is a map showing where she got stuck:-. Links to this post. Looking careful...

Viking Boats of Ullapool: Gunwales

http://thetroublewitholdboats.blogspot.com/2015/03/gunwales.html

Viking Boats of Ullapool. Or The Trouble with Old Boats. Bay of Plenty II. Thursday, 19 March 2015. Small spacer pieces, offcuts from the frames, were then glued and riveted, two forward, two aft to stiffen the last, unsupported sections of gunwale as they swept in to the stems. I quite like the way they parallel the sheerstrakes, before taking a direct line to the stem, where some sort of breasthook will tie all together. Suddenly the hull has become almost stiff enough to plonk in the water and row.

Viking Boats of Ullapool: Down the Road

http://thetroublewitholdboats.blogspot.com/2015/06/down-road.html

Viking Boats of Ullapool. Or The Trouble with Old Boats. Bay of Plenty II. Wednesday, 10 June 2015. Philip and Liz arrived last Monday to collect their new boat. No time to launch but we did raise the mast before strapping her to the trailer for the long haul south. I am quite pleased with the larch sheer strake, which adds a touch of class and various small modifications to the layout. What can I say? A very nice boat for a very pleasant couple who will, I hope, have many pleasant hours sailing her.

Viking Boats of Ullapool: LAUNCH TIME (at last..) A WORLD FIRST FOR VENDIA/COLLANO CLINKER

http://thetroublewitholdboats.blogspot.com/2015/08/launch-time-at-last-world-first-for.html

Viking Boats of Ullapool. Or The Trouble with Old Boats. Bay of Plenty II. Thursday, 6 August 2015. LAUNCH TIME (at last.) A WORLD FIRST FOR VENDIA/COLLANO CLINKER. That's it, then. In the water, quick row and all's well with Bob. In fact I would not hesitate to claim that this was among my all time favourites, along side the faerings. So, here's the evidence. What do you reckon? Better than traditional larch on oak, perhaps? A modern alternative to an old method that may have had its day? May well be bo...

scottishboating: A Scottish Gem from Don Roberto

http://scottishboating.blogspot.com/2012/03/scottish-gem-from-don-roberto.html

Everything about boating, more or less in Scotland. Thursday, 1 March 2012. A Scottish Gem from Don Roberto. MAN, an awfu'-like thing yon law o' general average. Dod aye, I mind aince being the matter of a hundred pound oot by it.". He paused, and spat reflectively into what he, having traded in his youth to Portland Maine, St. John's, and Halifax, knew as a cuspidor. His whole appearance showed him at first sight a man who for the most part of his life had sailed out of Aberdeen or Peterhead. Charter-pa...

scottishboating: Bilderglug Report and a Sombre Postcript

http://scottishboating.blogspot.com/2014/05/bilderglug-report-and-sombre-postcript.html

Everything about boating, more or less in Scotland. Sunday, 18 May 2014. Bilderglug Report and a Sombre Postcript. At least having the Kelpie there in advance meant that I could drive round in comfort and warmth. It was good to get the tent up and the chefs in charge of the enormous Friday feast really surpassed themselves. Sunday was wet and cold, Mrs D had been reclaimed and so I was alone. It blew a bit, but not enough to make things interesting. It rained, then rained a bit more. A cold, wet, sombre ...

scottishboating: Herbert Thom's Canna

http://scottishboating.blogspot.com/2011/01/herbert-thoms-canna.html

Everything about boating, more or less in Scotland. Tuesday, 4 January 2011. Above is a famous shot of Canna going like a rocket with, I think, Kilcreggan in the background, which would indicate she's in a stiff South-westerly breeze. I'm not sure of the identity of the photographer, but guess it may have been Ian Gilchrist of Garelochhead and Windward Publications fame.

scottishboating: Classic Boat Awards 2014

Everything about boating, more or less in Scotland. Thursday, 13 March 2014. Classic Boat Awards 2014. Ellad, photo by Nigel Pert. Interesting to see a good Scottish contingent getting awards at the Classic Boat 2014 awards, with best restoration William Fife III’s Ellad heading the list, and his Saskia included. The images in this post have been lifted from Classic Boat, who attribute the one of Ellad to Nigel Pert. The takers of the others are not identified, but the one of Martin is mine, which I ...
