If you like wooden boats then the following both have 60 + episodes on you tube:
Sampson boat company - totally rebuilding a 100 year old yacht single handed. Well filmed and an impressive effort.
Acorn to Arabella - two loons building their own boat . They start by telling the trees and collecting wheel balance weights to melt into a 4 ton keel weight. It’s only when they are two years into construction that they let slip they can’t sail!!! Boat building is good though.
Kept me occupied when I had a chest infection before Christmas.
