A scenic narrowboat cruise across a canal aqueduct

- In this video I took my narrowboat over a canal aqueduct which crosses the River Dove. The River Dove follows the border between the English counties of Derbyshire and Staffordshire, which means I started off in one county and ended up in another!
Sorry it has taken me so long to post another video by the way. I've had a lot going on lately and I haven't had much free time to edit this together.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy watching it and I'm aiming to post another one in a couple of weeks!
Such a wholesome and genuine person. It's no wonder why so many people enjoy what you do.
Thank you, that's really kind of you to say!
That's exactly the reason why I watch her.
I too agree, love these videos, look forward to them.
Hi Betty,
You’re A breath of fresh air in a world of “look at me” types,
Thank you for being you.
Thank you, that's really kind!
Best comment so far!
And her music is very soothing
And the pointing and shocked faces, so much pointing and shock in those video stills.....clickbait central. I'm tired of it
Great to see your confidence of speaking to the camera grow. This is such a natural channel nothing seems forced or staged. Love what you're doing
Yes I'm feeling more confident as I film more of the videos! 🙂
@@bettyonaboat Very interesting way of life thanks for sharing.
You bring back some wonderful memories of past boating holidays thank you
I can't stop watching your videos over and over again
Don't stop making videos i think you are lovely and your videos are interesting.
Thank you once again, Betty - twenty minutes of unhurried serenity was exactly what I needed ❤
I hope it was relaxing for you! 🙂
Thank you again, Betty, for your uncomplicated, un-egoed sharing of your experiences. You are a gem on this channel.
Thank you! 🙂
A lovely, peaceful canal boat ride with a charming lady guide. Thank you!❤
Thanks for watching! 🙂
I’ve just got my mum to watch your videos. She is quite elderly and she is thoroughly enjoying them. You’re so natural I loved the swan . And we are looking forward to seeing new ones soon. Xxxxx
Aww thank you, it’s lovely to know your mum is enjoying them! 😊
Just another quick word to say . I asked my mother if she would like to watch another video on canal boats so I put one on. And she didn’t like it.and just said to me no I want to watch Betty. Xx
I hope as you get more of these videos under your belt, you'll keep the uncluttered simplicity of your channel. This is a compliment, not a jibe. Thank you, Betty
Yes I think the channel will stay pretty much the same!
@@bettyonaboat Halfway through the video I paused and started reading the comments, 99.9% are more or less the same and mentioning the reason why I wrote my first comment. We all love you for being genuine. What are the dimensions of your boat?
edit at 12.46 Now I know the length is 31 feet 😊
edit 2 Yeah I will definitely watch next video too😊
Agreed. In a world of over energetic videos on youtube it's nice to come back down to earth with a calm video. A bit like rushing all week in a city then relaxing watching cricket on a weekend!
Mine is actually 30ft long, the other woman’s boat was 31ft so that’s why I was saying they’re a similar size. I’m glad you like the videos! 😀
Most glamorous❤ KH
very relaxing....looking forward to the next video
It's Friday, the sun is out, and Betty is on a Boat, made my day 🙂
Thank you, that's nice to know! 🌞
another great natural and enjoyable video
It was so nice to see you as your video showed you passing through my home town. I smiled as the family of ducks saw your safe passage through Dallow lock. I wish you well on your journeys to come and hope you'll visit us again sometime. Stay safe Betty 😊😊xx
I did spend quite a bit of time walking around exploring too but I didn’t film that. I thought it was really lovely by the river!
Thank you for your reply, Betty it was so nice of you. Yes, there are some lovely walks around the river at this time of year, and winter is magical as well. If you like nature and enjoy walking, may I suggest that if you have reached Branston yet, there is a water park called Branston Water Park you might like. It's nice. There's a little cafe there, i believe. You can access the park from the toe path of the canal, a little way up from a lovely pub called the Bridge Inn. Best wishes 😊
Enjoying your channel very much Betty,thank you.
Another lovely , relaxed video. Thanks Betty
Thanks for watching again!
Just watched your video and now I'm 'completely chilled' - Thankyou
I’m glad it chilled you out!
Thank you Betty very relaxing video please keep doing what you are doing
Love your life, I'm into nature so this is so amazing thank you for another great video.
Aw… the most relaxing, zen twenty minutes of the week. I love your natural style and observations. It’s a different style that really comes across well. Love it. Thanks for the vibes Betty. David x
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy the style of the videos - I just kind of started doing them without knowing how they were going to turn out!
Another great peaceful video and a great hat!
I echo what others say - you do not need for any bells and whistles the simplicity of your filming is why I watch, it is genuine and a calming - DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING!!!!
Thank you, I don’t plan to change anything! 🙂
Love the adventures betty mr swan taken a shine to you❤❤
What a lovely cruise that was - very pretty part of the country.
It is!
Lovely vlog. I enjoy the tranquility of the canal and your videos. Thank you for taking the time to post.
Thank you for taking the time to watch it!
That swan definitely wants it's 15 minutes 😂❤️
He has swanned off now though!
@@bettyonaboat😂😂🤭
@@bettyonaboat he must have 'swan'-dered off to the 'ballet'...
Don't worry Betty I'm here all day 🥳
I was hoping he would be back at the end. Maybe he's waiting by the car.
@@adamf7 haha can you imagine?!
Perched patiently on the bonnet 🤣
Another lovely video. So enjoyable.
How can a YT video be so peaceful and relaxing? Love it.
Thank you, it's nice to know you found it relaxing! 🙂
Really enjoyed this video Betty. Just appreciate a “real” person, solo or not navigating our old canal system. Informing us about our industrial heritage. Magical❤️👌
Thank you, although I have to admit I'm a bit lacking in knowledge on industrial heritage!
Burton is world renowned for the quality of it's beer. It's all down to the water used. In times gone by rival breweries up and down the country would go to Burton to take water samples to see if they could reproduce it, naturally they couldn't. I'm a Londoner now living these past 40 years in Dorset and I picked up that information somewhere along the way! I'm enjoying your videos and looking forward to seeing how your boat is inside. Great respect to you, I like an independent woman.
That’s interesting, I didn’t know it was to do with the water! 🍺
Thank you for another enjoyable video, I really enjoy watching your calm delivery through each of your videos, they are always fun to watch and educational about how life works aboard a canal boat.
That swan has genuinely formed a friendship with you 🥰
I wonder if they do form bonds with humans like other animals do?
@@bettyonaboat yes they do, I have done some research on this since the video the swan first followed you, they know you by sight & sound so I can honestly say this swan has formed a bond with you 🥰
Another lovely video Betty - thank you so much! Always such a relaxing and informative watch - will look out for the next one. x
Great hat - great music !
Hi betty, It's such a pleasant change to see somebody like yourself here on RUclips. A natural uncomplicated take on how life could be if we all possessed the same courage you have. Thanks for the wonderful content and allowing us all to live our little dream of life on the water, through yourself.
Thank you, that's a really nice comment! ☺
Totally agree - makes a pleasant change
Keep up the lovely videos Betty there really relaxing to watch and hold your head up high doing it solo and dont like people looking at you
Fantastic Video
Loved it x
Wonderful as always Betty and I’ll miss our friend Swanny, big love to you x
I will too, but maybe he’s hanging out with a different boater now?
@@bettyonaboat I hope that they are just as lovely as you are x
Another great video, can't wait for the next one 🙂
I hope you like the next one too!

That was a really lovely trip, so enjoyed your informative delivery to camera. You are definitely enjoying talking to camera more, and it was lovely to hear your conversations with your Swan pet. Shame he didn't come with you. Looking forward to more adventures of Little One.....from our Little One x
Enjoy your videos very much. Keep them coming. Thank you.
Thank you, I’ll try!

Nice video. Ik love this kind of ‘slow’ style! It’s relaxing.
What a lovely relaxing video. Thank you Betty. It's so refreshing to see someone be themselves on camera. Don't ever change. P.S. We still need your back-story!!! 😊
I’ll get to the story eventually but I want to be in a certain place!
Good to see you again. It’s nice that you’re getting a bit more at ease in you videos. Keep going girl.
Another lovely video from you, and great to see you pass my home town. Keep up the great work.
Awesome
Another thoroughly refreshing and enjoyable video.
Thanks for watching again!
Oh love, don't worry about being caught talking to the camera.
You are now the famous Betty on a Boat 💜.
I'm loving my Saturday mornings in bed with coffee and chilling with this lovely gentle woman.
Pity Swanny didn't hang in there.
Thank you Ashley, I'm enjoying my Saturday morning with a coffee while reading your comment!
@@bettyonaboat on opposite sides of the planet!
@bettyonaboat I have a little boat too in my back yard, at the ocean's edge. I live next to the water instead of on it. It's magical.
That does sound magical! I’d love to live next to the sea!
Great video Betty, enjoy the good weather and I look forward to your next adventure along the canal. Stay safe 🤪🥰😘
So so relaxing. Your channel is going to be one to watch !
Great Video Betty & the swan got looked after.

Simplicity is your gift. Living life with a smile grrreat stuff pal
Thank you! 🙂
I love sailing, greetings from the Netherlands
Beautiful gentle scenic vlog. I love your laidback and uncomplicated style it makes for a very relaxing and chilled viewing experience. It’s a shame the swan didn’t continue on your journey but they are territorial. Really looking forward to your next upload.

Thank you again for the videos. I'm so jealous of your lifestyle.
Ah another Betty video and this time with unexpected swan love heartbreak ! Thank you for another lovely video - couldn't be happier to see how popular your videos are. Looking forward to the next one already.
I think the swan storyline is about as dramatic as these videos are going to get! 😂 I’m glad you’re enjoying them!
