Salt & Tar: Ep.364- New Heights
Going aloft for the first time on Victoria, finding leaks, and more cleaning. Her rigging is 30 years old and probably the biggest project she requires. The deck leaks are mainly due to the hardware needing to be rebed. Next week we are back to Rediviva ;) Thanks for watching! p.s. I try and reply...

Salt & Tar: Ep.358- Sad News

Windows so...
Upgrading the Rudder and Another Trek To The Cliff
After 3 years of service Steve makes a big change to the rudder head taking off the bronze hardware and replacing it with a more traditional wooden setup. Not too much bronze has been removed from Arabella (fortunately!), but this change will make steering much more pleasant. Then the crew makes o...

Salt & Tar: Ep.353- Launch Day!
