    Crusher Chris???? You have the best nicknames for people. I thought you called him Crabster Chris at first 😂🤣 Great moving job James. Kudos to Graham for helping you out, a hatch will be great. So much more light. Things seem to be coming along, lithium batteries etc. Full steam….or batteries….ahead. Take care James and thanks again for sharing your journeys with us. 😊🤗 Kathy

    When I first spotted him, I knew it was Chris. Good on you for helping James with a tricky move. Everything seems to be moving along quite nicely. But you do look like you need a good sleep. Cheers

    Very impressive how you got both boats into that lock! Great that Chris was able to help though - would have been very tricky with the gates that didn’t open properly!! Hope the weekend goes smoothly 😊

    Its a mad idea, but what about umbilical Vetus controls in a box with a magnetic mount? I suppose BSS would frown.

    How about a battery powered strummer to cut the grass between the tow path and narrowboat in your spare time or is the uncut look a preference 🙂

    The idle speed on your Vetus sounds a bit fast. I couldn’t see your rev counter but I believe that it should be.850 rpm minimum.

    Have you considered using reclaimed wood for your floors, walls and trim out for this boat? It may be less expensive and you can get some nice wood. Would your Daddy and your friends help you to outfit your boat? Do you have any female friends that would be willing to help with colors and decor? I’m in North Carolina or I would try to help! Put some feelers out on those willing to help!

      That’s a fair point. To be honest the ones I use don’t ask for ID but many do.

      In Hertfordshire, you have to show council tip officials a proof of residency letter (any official letter with home address on), not sure about other counties though.
