The Boatyard

William gives one order, and the next four minutes are the consequence. Men go into a wood with axes, a blade runs down a plank, two of them bend into a half built hull and bore a hole in it. Then the fleet is hauled to the water, loaded with mail shirts slung on poles and a cart of wine and spears, and it crosses. In film one, men carried animals into the sea by hand. Here the horses come out as cargo. Worth waiting for: Two men to carry one mail shirt, slung on a pole between them. You can see the weight in how they walk.
