I was going to start watching your videos from the beginning, but you have so many videos! 😂 I scrolled but couldn’t get to the first one 🤣! I will watch each time I see you, but not from the beginning. Thank you for sharing this video.
Check out some sites like Rugby Boat Sales to get a general idea about the cost of buying a narrowboat. About £50000 to £100000 depending on the quality and age of the boat is about average.
That's absolutely beautiful guys, I lived in an 8 birth static caravan and loved the thing ,it was a magical time my 1st kid was conceived in the caravan and when i told him, he said are we gypsies dad? I never had to answer that one tbh, anyway yea I loved living in the caravan, the only remotely bad thing was winter!! It's very different from being in a home with brick walls!! But I'll never forget living there I just wished I'd of taken pictures from this time, yours is beautiful, every bit is unreal and your so lucky to own such a boat and what a place to grow up eh kids, have a lovely day guys,all the best from york guys 🇬🇧 👍🏼
I lived on a similar but smaller boat for a couple of years and loved it. The winters are harder no doubt, but if you've got a mooring with water and power only moderately so. A well insulated boat is warm and cozy all year round.
@@tonyofarrell2775 yep iv head that we live in barge in Amsterdam for few years in the late 80s. An in winter it was cold. Not cold cold. But I still enjoyed it
If we managed to convert the LA river into an actual river we could house so many of our homeless with pretty much infinite supply of food. We can probably also turn it into a tourism business. Imagine if the LA river is where Smorgasburg was located.
Buying a boat is the perfect way to break the rent “cycle.” A good boat can be brought for £30k or even less, mortgages are also available with a 20% deposit. Many people I know who brought a boat because they couldn’t afford a house, never left the boat life even when they could afford the house! Live mortgage free.
Aawww, I just love their boat. I hope one day to get one for a kind of 2nd home, got a lot going on at the moment but hoping for the future. That kind of life just really fascinates me. I know this sounds a bit crazy but for the past couple of years (since wanting a houseboat myself), I have been really wanting a friend who lives in one right now. Would any of your friends be interested in having me as a boat buddy?. I am a young woman from Halifax in England!. I'm very friendly and chatty, don't smoke and love the houseboat life.......or at least think I would!!. Ha ha, let's see.............
this is actually what I'm thinking right now. I cannot afford rent anymore. I already pay so much and annul increase just killing me. I think it's good alternative if you don't want to end up living with strangers
We have actual houseboats here in the states, some people live on them, some just use them as a vacation spot or a place to get away. I know people live on lakes and rivers in the south and Midwest, not sure about the coasts, though I imagine if you are living in your boat on the ocean you probably are at least a bit nomadic.
Dreemur Flowey Idiotic statement. They still make use of local services like schools, doctors, roads, police etc so should of course contribute. Then there is the vast cost of maintaining the 200 plus year old canal network. Why shouldn't they pay towards the facilities they enjoy?
I have a beautiful completely original 1966 - 132ft (39 meters) Dutch Barge currently for sale. It's just been to the dockyard and is in amazing condition with certification for the next 7 years - located in Belgium. Don't hesitate to send me a message if you're interested and I'll provide all relevant info.
Interesting to see a woman about to ruin her life after swallowing the feminist delusion, and instead turns around and becomes a happy and fulfilled stay-at-home mother. Notice how it's the man who made the plan to live on the boat, she would've just let her life drift apart and ended up drinking wine with her cats asking "where have all the good men gone?"

that is truly a fabulous HOME! It is everything I love and adore....you have created a warm oasis. Thank you for sharing it with us
I applaud and envy them.

Lovely story! I've been thinking of this lifestyle for a while... I might do the same!
What a beautiful boat and wonderful life. …very inspirational!
Most important question: How much did the houseboat cost? And how much is it worth now? Nice sense of community and fellowship.

@@1973Washu That's not a proper "narrow" boat, I expect it was considerably more specially considering they had it modified to add the 8ft.
@@1973Washu depends on if it was a project or sailaway they bought as well
what a lovely home you have created
Good vid......it comes from the heart.........regards to you and your family from Australia.
🥰 What a lovely way to live!
lots of love best wishes from my family to yours we been married 30 yrs

Lovely! Tho this does look like summer. Mewonders what winters are like living in a houseboat. Does look like a slice of happiness tho. .

They are anything but cosy
@@tonyofarrell2775 iv only stayed on one barge in winter with my mate for a. Mth. an he had under floor heating so it was alway nice an cosy.
@@vashnanerada8757 newer boats are not to bad ,but the older ones🍷⛄❄

This kind of living make more sense if you want to be happy in my opinion. 💜

An artificial Current could be made, and Underwater turbines could help source the electricity....
where is the infinite food you mentioned coming from?

"...and, I hate it!"
I'll take it!
I wonder what the American equivalent is to this? Mayhaps RV living.
Yea RV living in Walmart parking lots.

Just heaven
Is it legal to live like this in the UK?
Yeah, it's legal, I live by canals here(Birmingham) and there's people living in narrow boats going up and down from time to time
Totally legal.
You bet they will find a way to tax or charge poor people
poor people?

Ah ya that’s the life for me 🤓
My guess is about £200,000 ?
She can rock my boat anytime 😁
She was pregnant with her son?!
think youre mixing up by her son with, with her son.
Please do not buy a narrowboat
Why?
why?
why?
You fools sail into port and say you're illegal migrants and you'll have much better accommodations... You have to convert to Islam...
@Jim Johans I have been to countries where they make 35 quid a month.. I don't want my country to be the same.
