    Note to the BBC - give this guy his own show, it would play in the US too. You could do little side trips on land to bring in the history crowd. You are a natural. Interview some of the lock tenders, get into the pubs and such. If I had your temperament, and equipment, that's what I'd do. Curious as to who pays to maintain all those locks, they all seem to be very leaky.

      Thank you. The canal network is maintained, as far as they can on limited funds, by the Canal and River Trust which is a charity (to which all boaters pay an annual licence fee)

    I'm a random college student in the U.S. and just happened to stumble upon your videos and they are so amazing for background noise while studying, although I find myself getting distracted by the beautiful scenery and architecture. I know I absolutely nothing about narrowboating but I find it fascinating. Hopefully I can take a ride on one when I visit England one day. Keep up the good work!

    Truly beautiful scenery in this installment, as there is in so many others. I watched this one, then immediately clicked 'replay' and watched it through again. A few years ago, I learned of the German word "Fernweh," which loosely translated means " longing or homesickness for a place to which you've never been." Not until I became a subscriber to your channel did I fully understand. Your canals have become that for me. Thank you for showing a part of the UK that the average American never gets to see. Most of us don't even know the canals exist, let alone have any knowledge of that slow-motion way of life. Time to binge watch from episode #1 again.

    Hi David, I see the Canadians have been very generous in sharing their geese with England as well as the US. I think in our case they came south for the winter and decided they liked the weather and decided to stay. Thanks Canada but that's enough. We have hundreds on every golf course in Phoenix. Love your videos.

    Here in Phoenix, the Western Desert is about to live and breathe at 45 degrees! Actually more- closer to 47 (117 for my fellow Americans) So, we jump in the pool and come inside with the AC, then fire up RUclips and vicariously enjoy the English countryside and canals- where it is (or at least was a few weeks ago) cool enough to wear a fluffy hat! I'm pretty sure you will be saving a life.....Thanks for all the wonderful vlogs!!!

    I just found your channel a few days ago and have not been able to stop watching. I have always been interested in living on the water and I think narrowboats are the ideal way to do that. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. I love the UK countryside and would love to live there someday on a narrowboat.

    I love your videos David. Good job. I use an adblocker when I watch so you do not get any money from the ones I actually watch. I am ashamed to admit I never thought of removing the adblocker and just letting your videos run until I saw someone else comment about doing that. So now I take the adblocker off and run your videos at 2X speed at night while I sleep. I ran through 1-94 last night with the ads running. I will restart watching today at about 195 where I am at present with the adblocker on. Then tonight it is back to no adblocker so you can earn a bit of money.

    looking how calm the water was reminded me of when we lived in northern illinois on the chain of lakes. you would be on the water all weekend with guests and family and friends along with a ton of other boats--and literally some days whitecaps on the water. but come monday morning, when all the weekenders had gone home, you would go out on the water and it was like a sheet of glass. brought back some great memories.

    • @stevej71393
      @stevej71393 2 года назад

      Despite the fact that I live in Illinois, I have never been on the lakes in the north but it sounds amazing. My wife's family has an RV and dock on the Kankakee River and they also describe mornings on the water like sheets of glass!

  • @AnthonyChew
    @AnthonyChew 6 лет назад +1

    One of the many reasons I enjoy your videos - you always have 2 days in a vlog (i.e say 'good morning' twice), away from the unwritten rule that says that vlogs are always (and must be made) daily, like a 'dear dairy'. It gives me the illusion that the video is very long, but it's actually only 10-15 minutes each, great job!

  • @williamjordan811

    LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!! Very peaceful, I actually felt like I was along for the ride, I even got up from the computer and fixed a a cup of Earl Gray so I could sip it while watching. I have ordered a new monitor, the Samsung Supra Ultra Wide CHG90, I am looking forward to watching on it when it comes in. So peaceful and warm, loved all of the scenes in this, a great great balance. Cheers and as always God bless

    Another beautiful video, as always, David. Those pinwheels along the fields serve 2 purpose, 1, they are pretty, 2, they cause an underground vibration that is supposed to annoy burrowing critters, like gophers, etc., to keep them away from the roots of plants. I am not sure how effective they are, but here in the States, many farm stores and garden centers sell them for that reason. :)

    • @CruisingTheCut
      @CruisingTheCut  7 лет назад +1

      That is the weirdest thing! I went past a bit of canal with loads of mole-holes recently, maybe I should have planted some of those things in the ground there!

    • @JessieColt2
      @JessieColt2 7 лет назад

      You could start a new trend amongst the boaters! Plant a pinwheel along the bank each time to moor up in a 48 hour spot. Write the date on one of the petals. It would add color to the banks of the canals, and give other boaters something to wonder about if they are not aware of the new trend! LOL

    David the easiest way to remove bird poo is a garden sprayer full of water, simply spray it to soften it then go back and spray it off the roof or solar panels and down the side of the boat. I use to own a black car and I am sure birds hated black as it was a regular target. Leaving it on was deadly with paint of that era and it was the easiest and most hygienic way to remove it. 🦜🦜🦜🦜🦜 Also I think all the Morris Minors are here there are quite a few very active clubs here. 🚗🚗🚗🚗🚗

    I suppose you might have looked into this, but ever think of using an electric trolling motor which can be lifted off to place on either port or stbd at the bow to help you work against the wind? Of course with control back aft. UPDATE: Sorry to say it isn't very cheap or practical to have a small motor. For a boat your size, you'd have to have a tunnel thruster at the bow & from a few forums I visited, it'd be £2700 + to buy & install it...maybe more. Still, it would be an experiment to see if a small portable motor could be fitted the bow to assist in keeping the boat straight on a windy day.

      Yes, very costly and largely unnecessary - please see my website FAQ page, cheers

    Great video as always! Thoughts locks look to be a pain in you know what. I'm glad Missouri lakes only has damns. That would get annoying to me. But if your raised with only knowing that kind of system then it is just expected.
    Happy & safe boating.

    10:20 What a quaint little old railway goods van there in the background. Though I've no clue which railway the LWJR is.

    Did anybody else notice the stately elderly gentleman that was fishing on the left side of the screen, it looked like he was wearing a top hat. Happens between 7:05-7:11 elapsed time.
