    All these projects are going to make for a lovely traveling home. That countertop is going to look stunning. Can't wait to see how it all turns out. I use to love doing DYI projects . Now Im older and lazier , I'll just live vicariously through both of you :)

      There’s so many little jobs going on because we keep having to wait for things to try it’s hard to loose track, hopefully that means as it comes together more the process will speed up, it’s really fun especially as Iv never done a lot of diy, thank you what a lovely comment 😊

    Also so many relatable things with the DIY😂 “that’ll do” and picking random sticks up to stir, perfect 😂

    Hi, I love Becs idea for the bathroom cabinet. It's going to be beautiful plus you gotta love drawers ☺️. Chris the hatch doors are coming along. Great idea putting the varnish on to protect the wood. Wishing you great weather on your cruise.

    Becca your truly amazing ! You just crack on with it while Chris tries his best ! No marigolds but a pair of work gloves! Better than nothing!
    Good idea to use a small chest of drawers for the bathroom sink, which is beautiful by the way. Onwards and upwards guys ! Xx

      The sink is magical, that’s why Becca hides it from me haha we will be cruising it for blacking in about a month which is a weeks journey there and back, will also possibly going to do a small test run just to see if the boat is stable with the new ballest lay out , thank you 😀

    Hi Becca, Chris, another great entertaining Vlog. Chris well done on your wood panels for the hatches, your doing a great job. Becca, your Bathroom sink ( and stand ) looks great. I loved the plug (push to lock in place, push to let the water out). Your kitchen work surface is coming along really nice. You have both been really busy. Well done. Have a great week and Take care.

    I want to say that I love your videos, but without being pessimistic you should probably plan to start your network cruising next spring. As you said you have a completion date in mind then double that and add some more! It’s being realistic. Having said that you’re both brilliant, enthusiastic and determined, oh and young, so you have plenty of time. The best of British to you.

    • @TheNomadicCrobot
      @TheNomadicCrobot  2 года назад

      Thanks so much, your absolutely right, we haven’t really even discussed the fact that it will probably be nearer next year, but that’s not to say it can’t be done, there could also be the excitement of starting of as winter cruisers that would be a fun twist as not as many Narrowboat era choose to cruise in the winter months as much , thanks again we can’t wait to get going 😀

    This video is : Boat repair by the handicapped since they are fun to watch - Free suggestion(that is the worth) install sink in 6" wood hole & silicone caulk so drain pipe isn't the structural support - maybe use holed glass or acrylic under bowl to protect wood & support -
