1. The Cleddau is a wonderful expanse of water from Pembroke Castle up to Llangwm.

2. Another good reason to visit Wales – beautiful boat and looked like a dream to sail

4. what's the lizard for?

5. Lovely lugger. Thank you for this Tom.

6. "Very nice 👍👍🇺🇸"

7. Champion stuff Tom, many thanks for this.

8. As you said Tom the foot of the mizzen looks like it needs to come down. It looked like it needed to be flatter with the belly of the sail further forward in those gusty conditions. Just like the ones we had today as a thunderstorm passed by us today as we dropped the hook in Alanya, Turkey. Sail Safe mate. Ant & Cid

9. Lovely little boat. And a fascinating price of history.

10. Thanks, that was brilliant

11. I always look forward to your videos Tom, thanks very much!

12. Great stuff. Thanks Tom.

14. God bless all sailors, but God love and cherish the lifeboat men. (And women)

15. Love to see you ‘working’ these classics Tom.
    Another great video!
    All the best

16. Lovely, your videos are always such a treat.
    Mizzens are a bit of a mystery to me, I'd like to know how they are sheeted

17. Tom’s face just completely lights up when he is sailing, and most of all in the classic boats!

18. Excellent – what a lovely boat. It would be great if you did some videos on the Galway Hookers – quite an active culture there of building and racing and keeping some of the old ways alive.

19. @ 7.07minutes you are telling the skipper where to steer 🤷‍♂weird

20. Just to give credit to those that built this boat, the students of the MITEC school of boatbuilding deserve a shout. From researched drawings the boat was lofted full size on a purpose built floor in a shed on the docks in Milford Haven. From the lofting the backbone was constructed, much of this was done with basic hand tools and taught skills. All fastenings in the main structure are bronze with forged heads (more student skill). The rivets are indeed copper. All of the hull, deck, sole, bulkhead, thwarts, gunwales, rudder, tiller and knees were student made and fitted. Their skills and enthusiasm should be applauded.

21. Back in 83 I spent many evenings assisting in restoring a 1934 Hampton one design. The only power tools were a huge planer and a table saw. We used hand augers for drilling

22. Thanks Tom! Your videos are always delightful! And what a great boat!

23. The sailing your doing with sheet in hand is my favor way to sail. In my daysailer I would bungee the tiller and sail with sheet in hand. Drove the wife nuts

24. Loved seeing that old lifeboat- my great grandfather was a minesweeper skipper out of the Haven – sunk off St Anne’s in 1917 – I wonder if that old lifeboat was there to try to save them? Thank you Tom for another great little video

25. Coble story please!

26. I,m sure that the lifeboat was at Fishguard in 2010. I was there in my Westerley Jouster October 2010 to 31st december 2010 when I sailed overnight to Dale!…Best to you Tom! You gave me the trophy at falmouth in 1998 when we won the classic in our No 17 Essex One Design SYMPHONY….LA5 Lancs

27. Thanks to you for visiting Wales specially west Wales.

28. 👍!!!

29. Tom thanks for sharing this experience with us. Small IS beautiful -and clearly fun!

30. In 1953 there was an old man in Tenby who had an amazing story. As a younger man he had been swept overboard from the Tenby lifeboat which was a pulling/sailing vessel. They managed to get alongside but we’re unable to get him aboard, so they strapped a rope around him and tied him off alongside the boat. He was there for over an hour by the time they got him back to the harbour. He had lost consciousness by then.
    Dad said he’d been drinking for free on that story for forty years or more.

31. good to see you back.

32. I shall have to visit that museum. I live in Wales.

33. I love Toms videos, especially when he sails an antique or replica. However I have a constructive suggestion. On any boat, especially a small boat, a hand held camera can't get the whole picture. I felt it was claustrophobic, not seeing the whole boat, how the sails were trimmed and worked together. So I say; have a second camera on a chase boat or a drone. Intercut that footage with the stuff on board. That way we could see the whole boat, get a since of her scale and how she sails.

34. The Tenby Chugger as it chugs along !!
