Length at waterline (LWL): 44 feet 6 inches (13.6 m).In July 2021, Goolden's Sampson Boat Company and Tally Ho relocated to the Port of Port Townsend boatyard. As of May 2021, Goolden's plan was to move the boat to nearby Port Townsend, Washington and complete the restoration there. Goolden settled the dispute with the county, and agreed to move the boat before September 18, 2021. In 2021, Clallam County required Goolden to apply for a conditional use permit, as the location where the boat restoration work was taking place was not zoned for that activity. Goolden has gained media attention for his videos of the restoration, which he publishes on Youtube. He moved the boat to Sequim, Washington for restoration. Facing difficulties in their refit plans, in June 2017, the Association sold Tally Ho to English boatbuilder and sailor Leo Sampson Goolden for $1. The hope was to eventually facilitate its return to the United Kingdom. Until 2017, the Albert Strange Association owned the boat and had planned to restore and refit it. From 2010 until 2017 the yacht was kept on stands in a boatyard in Brookings-Harbor by the Albert Strange Society. Īfter some years, she worked as a fishing boat out of the Port of Brookings Harbor, Oregon, until 1987, under the name Escape. Still, the boat was able to stay afloat long enough to be towed back to Rarotonga to be rebuilt. While being floated with empty oil drums, Tally Ho rolled over, and in the process lost her mast, bowsprit, and rudder. While heaving to at Manuae waiting for daylight, the boat drifted onto the coral reef near the island, stoving in the port side, grounding her on the reef. After briefly chartering in the Caribbean, he made his way to Rarotonga by July 1968, where he chartered to transport 20 tons of copra from Manuae 120 miles (190 km) away. In 1967, Jim Louden of New Zealand embarked on Tally Ho, heading home via the Panama Canal. While still based in Southampton until the 1960s, Tally Ho made multiple transatlantic crossings. Alden–designed 30-ton schooner La Goleta, but won the race on corrected time. The yacht crossed the finish under heavy conditions, 52 minutes after the John G. Tally Ho was one of only two yachts from the fifteen starters to complete the 1927 Fastnet Race. After two other owners and a name change to Alciope, ownership of the boat passed in 1927 to the then Lord Stalbridge, who renamed her Tally Ho. In 1913, Hellyer commissioned the larger Betty II and sold Betty.
The boat was built for Charles Hellyer of Brixham, Devon, England, for relaxed cruising and deep-sea fishing. Originally named Betty, the boat was built in 1910 in Shoreham-by-Sea, West Sussex, England, by Stow & Son. However, Strange designed Tally Ho with a transom stern and a cutter rig, which was an unusual design for him. But the real attraction today is the food and the service you'll enjoy when you visit.Ĭhef, owner and restauranteur Bob Kelley has spent almost 30 years developing a variety of menu items prepared in diverse and quality styles to tempt everyone, from the experienced 'foodie' to the connoisseur of great southern cooking, and that means Southern France, or South Alabama! To top the experience off, you'll be able to sit and enjoy your meal in a fine dining atmosphere, without the pretension often associated with such, but with all the personal service you'd expect in a 'big city' restaurant.Albert Strange is best known for the canoe yawl with a double-ended or canoe-stern hull and the two masts of the yawl rig. With a history that stretches back over more than 60 years, the building itself has made an impact on Selma's history. Nestled in a small grove of trees on Mangum Avenue in historic Selma Alabama, the Tally Ho has become a destination unto its own.
You can visit many places and travel to exotic locations, but you must ' experience' the Tally Ho!
