I love all your videos, I find you to be absolutely amazing! You are a few years younger than I am, but my grandfather was a cabinet maker and had a shop very much like yours. As a child, I spent many hours watching him shape and touch wood just as you do ! He was a very gentle and patient man very much as you seem to be. I am so glad I stumbled upon your YouTube channel!

Great to see Lou is BACK! This should be a regular thing with you, Lou! showing the techniques of boat building from around the world. Maybe a once a year thing, or more! I am sure other universities would be interested in the exposure, too. Anyway, great to see you doing what you do. It was a long wait, but well worth it!

Tips from a Shipwright
We're back for day 2 at the WoodenBoat Show at the Mystic Seaport in Mystic, CT. Follow Lou as he takes a spin around this amazing place and gives us a behind the scenes look at some of the other great boats and projects on display.
We're going to get back to our TotalBoat Sport Dory next week but strap in for another adventure because Lou has been invited by the University of Concepcion in Chile to visit the local boating community and boat builders and learn about their methods and offer his expertise in any way he can. We'll be bringing the camera so you all can come along and get an up close and personal look at Chile and their boating industry.
