Designed and hand-built by one man, this traditional larch-on-oak West Mersea winklebrig is launched near Colchester. Fabian Bush (fabianbush.com) is one of only a very few boatbuilders with the skills and experience to construct such a clinker craft, from solid timber with copper fastenings. The music is the last movement of Brahms 2nd symphony and Ralph Vaughan Williams' Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis, played by Colchester's Roman River Music Festival Orchestra (in rehearsal), Conductor and Musical Director, Orlando Joplin (romanrivermusic.org.uk) recorded by Abbey Farm Road Studios
