    I’m on a mission to rebuild a 1910 English sailing yacht called Tally Ho. Designed by Albert Strange in 1909, she is a well-known and important historic vessel – but after many adventures she was left in a remote port in Oregon to rot for decades, despite some valiant attempts to rescue her. I bought her and moved her to the Olympic Peninsular earlier this year, and am now rebuilding her from the keel up. Eventually I hope to sail her back to the UK.

  I’ve been really enjoying watching the restoration of Tally Ho on YouTube. Boat restoration is an insane amount of work.

    Warren Clancy is about to realise a vision formed when he stumbled on a beautifully crafted boat laying abandoned on a Darwin shoreline two and a half years ago.
