As we journey through millennia, the evolution of shipbuilding unfolds tales of exploration, trade, and cultural exchange – a testament to human ingenuity riding the waves of progress.
The secrets of ancient ship construction brought us the resilient Pesse canoe and the mighty triremes of Greece. The Romans adapted, and the Egyptians embraced innovative 'stitched plank' designs, each ship narrating a chapter in the epic saga of human maritime endeavors.
Under the Viking's iconic long ships came the rise of medieval cogs and carracks, setting sail into the Age of Exploration where the Santa Maria symbolizes the relentless pursuit of new horizons and the spirit of discovery.Finally, from the industrial revolution's shift to iron and steel giants to the modern age of colossal vessels like the Titanic, the story of shipbuilding echoes the resilience and innovation of humanity in conquering the challenges of the open sea.

Wonderful Things That May or May Not Be Wonderful!!!
There is a saying among those who own a maritime craft " The best days in a boat owner's life are the day he buys it and the days he sells it". In a sense, this is true especially if you don't use it after you buy it. However, if you have the choice, you should really try to use it. Not just because you shouldn't waste things but because boats are awesome. All kinds of boats. Canoes, kayaks, rowboats, schooners, yachts, sailing ships, barges, dinghies (he he...there I did it for you). They are what allowed civilizations to travel the waters of the world and allowed towns to live off their bounty. They now allow families to spend time trapped together fishing and buddies to do the same thing just with their choice of alcoholic beverage. So yeah, boats = wonderful. Makes sense.

Give me of your bark, O Birch-tree!
Of your yellow bark, O Birch-tree!
Growing by the rushing river,
Tall and stately in the valley!
I a light canoe will build me,
Build a swift Cheemaun for sailing,
That shall float upon the river,
Like a yellow leaf in Autumn,
Like a yellow water-lily!
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, The Song of Hiawatha, VII. Hiawatha’s Sailing

#brian connolly#andy scott#sweet#the sweet#sweet band#sailing with sweet#okay but actually i get it because the times i've been in boats#it's like such a nice feeling to be there#and just the whole deal#i don't know anything about boats and i've never had that big an interest in them but#i get it#maybe on a smaller scale#when i was younger we had a small inflatable boat#and we had a canoe#and i used to love taking them out in lakes by myself#and just row around#it was such a peaceful thing to do#and the water everywhere#i love water#i'd get extra excited if my family and i went somewhere and we took one of them along#this video is bringing up some feelings about that now#but anyway this is the end of the sailing part#the next section of the video is an interview

Nico/Jonas my beloveds, thank you! 😌
I was gonna make the "me, I'm fandom" joke, but actually, no, Becky made me do it and I never looked back.
Fandom's sleeping on them, tbh, and when 4-5 us post our longfic for them later this year, y'all will be sorry pulled into this vortex with us.
THEY BAKED BREAD TOGETHER!!!
