Good fun. Does anyone know the name of the tune?

From Alan Winston: "A 'Hoy' is a ferryboat; Margate is a seaport town on the East coast of England."

In Margate here in Kent UK we had a 18th century Boat called the Margate Hoy.

This is one of my Civil War dances.

How fun! This is so different from other vintage dances I've seen. I wish I had been there to experience this. Thanks for posting it.
