Thanks a lot man that was really informative!
Disclaimer. Im gonna ALOT of stupid questions. I (think) you can have your engine inside or outside right? Does it make a big difference? Thank you, love Basil. Came after binging Joe last night ❤
Hi ! Just come across you and your words about boats blues were comforting. Bought my lady in April as a project and had water coming above the floorboards due to bad water flow drainage over who knows how long and had to rip her out in the coldest week. I am living out of my van with my youngest and I have to remember that we aren’t homeless and it’s a short term problem and I get a much better condition cosy home sooner, even though it has to be done in the worst weather conditions ❤
You seem like an exceptionally strong person and you have made me feel a little tiny bit more like yes, i fucking can do this, People do this, you're a people, do this. So thank you and I hope things are coming along with your boat xx
Hope you and Basal are getting along and having a wonderful 2025 so far. Looking forward to your adventures. Hope winter on the canals is treating you well.
I went past that weir on my way into london 2 days after getting my narrowboat. It was terrifying😂 Then i got to the lock and the security geese would not let me retrieve the windlass 😂😂
Is the boat a lot quieter since you fitted the new silencer? I tried to find a older video but the music drowned it out. I ask because we have a 15 inch silencer on ours and thinking of replacing it for a 30 inch one.
Hope you sort your issues out with RUclips and hope to see you back on your channel soon. Andy
Or maybe 3 lol😆. Hope you're okay. Stay safe🤗
How old is Basil and why did you give her name of Basel? How do you feel about moving out of London? Some people miss the crowds, noise etc.. others like the pease and better environment. Take care
The Islington tunnel seemed never ending. The hireboat situation sounds like the tourists here in Norfolk, no regard for the locals🥴. Great video🤗
Great job Charlie. I must've missed about kind of wood and treatment🥴. Off to the next🤗
Great layout Charlie. I came over Joe shouted you out on a old video of his I watched today. Going to watch your other vids now🤗
Brilliant!!! Your videos are back. I’m so chuffed for you 😊😊
Your works are very nice. If you want I can increase your viewership ?
I’m ok thanks
We always called them grips. Nice to watch you fit the exhaust. Where did you manage to buy it? Thanks for sharing.
Thanks a lot for your support
Nice relaxed video. Cheers
Glad you enjoyed it
Glad to see you and basil are doing alright cant believe you've already got a sponsor
Cheers buddy
yes charlie!!! love this!
Thanks for sharing your boat tour. You seem such an easy guy to get on with. Love all the plants you have, and the ingenuity of your workshop at the front of the boat. So cool.
Thanks 👍
Love the video. Down to earth, practical and knowledgeable. Love the bit about narrow boat blues....im thinking of buying a narrow boat next year and already in a panic about it 😅. All the best.
That’s fantastic good luck with it all !!
Same! Losing sleep already 🎉🎉
Nice to see you both back... Work is a necessary evil but glad you are back. Shame about the workshop but Bazil looks very happy :-)
I will miss the Workshop, but I’m glad I have more space now
Just watching my bestie Baz whilst having my morning coffee. There’s just this guys who keeps taking up the screen space! Bit rude! Haha big love to you both, smashing it!
Hahaha it’s meeeeeee
Nice to have you back matey. I really enjoy watching.
It’s nice to be back !!
❤️
Really enjoy the relaxed vibe of your videos. Thanks Charlie.
Oh, I’m glad you like them thank you so much
Basil’s new bed looks great! 🐕
She absolutely loves it and it is very comfortable. I wish I was allowed to sleep on there.
@@charlieandbasil my canine companion’s are the same two Shepwilers big hairy lumps!
❤❤❤❤❤
Nice to see you both again 😊have a great weekend ☺️
Thank you 😊
A sponsor already?! Boys blowing up 🤙 🐕
I know right !
The Basil ramp is sooo cute! And yes good sleep is so crucial, I'm glad you have a good bedroom now!
Thank you!! 😊
Good to see you, personally I'd want a 60ft+ boat if I was going to have a dedicated workshop setup but then the boat would be limited which parts of the network it could get to. Don't worry too much about quality of content for existing subs as I'm sure we'd all watch you watch paint dry. Thanks for the vid
Yeah, I was looking at a 70 foot one at one point, but it’s just too big for the network unfortunately. Oh, that’s really kind of you !
Good to have you back Charlie and great to see Basil again. You made a good decision getting your bed back and catching up on some well earned sleep. Big kisses to Basil, lots of hugs to you both from a wet South of France. 😘😘
Thanks a lot, Basil says woof woof
Thanks for the video.
You are welcome!
The bedroom looks so comfy! And your content is always great so don’t you be worrying about that. I would deffo be up for Patreon. I work in St Albans so know Hemel / Apsley pretty well. The old factory is an old paper mill (hence the pub name 😁). Take care and big kisses for Basil 🥰
Thank you so much!!
Don't give - up the carpentry Charlie , I'm sure there are plenty of ham fisted guys like me who need a hand with their boats.....apparently the Ukrainian expression for ham - fisted is ' having arms growing out of your arse ' , woof woof Basil
A good night sleep is always a bonus Charlie, that's for sure. Great to see you getting sponsors, those head trimmers are great, they fairly make life easy; no fussing around.
Yeah, I really like mine I use it all the time.
@@charlieandbasil Same, I even shave my face with mine 👍
Hi Basil woof woof
She says woof woof back !
Good to have you back
Thanks for the support!!!
Ohh you’ve got the hybrid battery thing! Did you get someone to install this? A friend of mine needs a recommendation. Also… Have you started your Etsy store yet?
I did get someone to install it I’ll give you the number when I next see you
