    Well, with your teaser that you last posted, I was thinking, " a little one" - but I was NOT thinking "little boat"!
    Congratulations! I'm sure Benny and you will make this little one a beauty to be proud of!

    You had us all fooled, I never thought about another boat but it’s a great idea, I can’t wait to see the progress unfold. You guys are great and Alan too, he’s the coolest cat, she didn’t like the flute playing, her face shows all her emotions, she was almost frowning. You dad’s food looks amazing!!!xxxx

    I really love the small boat 🚣‍♀️. Great winter project ❄️❄️☃️. Love Alan’s motor going on 🐈. Really good to see Dad cooking 🍳.

  • @bindatek8801
    @bindatek8801 11 месяцев назад

    I would seriously consider fitting One Rowlock in the outboard bar on the stern. Get one long sculling oar. You could then tow the "butty", moor it while the big boat goes through the lock, and then reset the lock, and "scull" the little boat into the lock. Sculling is a simple process moving the oar side to side whilst twisting it to propel the boat at the same time. This could be easier than carrying a small outboard and mounting it each time. Cheaper than an outboard, and no need to carry petrol. You might also need a rudder (which YOU could make) or a chain being dragging in the water, to keep the boat straight whilst towing, but that can be pulled out to scull the boat. You need to test the little boat FIRST, no rudder, or anything else, see how it tows! Set the new boat up in stages to make sure the method of "propulsion" is both ideal and of course, economical. I would avoid an outboard, with mountings (raising and lowering) that will be pricey! Good luck with the project.

    Wow. I must admit when I saw that little springer I thought you were going to say that you had bought a house and were going
    to film the odd adventure on the small boat....But what a great idea .I look forward to the first C.D. that Benny makes in the
    new project.Thank you for living our dream.

  • @winstonsmith8441

    A great use of your woodworking skills Benny. What an amazing project! Ideal spot for creating music & beans! ❤️ What will you name your boat of creation? Bingo beans!! 😂 can’t wait for Alan to see it. I think Alan will decide it’s just their boat & want to name it Alan’s Throne! 😂

  • @daveallen63
    @daveallen63 11 месяцев назад +2

    Don't worry about people wanting to tune out if your content varies. I think I can safely say that unlike some other channels, your viewers just love you guys and want to go along for as much of your journey as you're comfortable sharing. I personally think the new project/expansion boat is awesome and I'd like to see it come together. The difference here (with your channel) is the new boat isn't an effort to create content, it's genuinely just part of your life as it moves forward.

    • @vintagevic4593
      @vintagevic4593 11 месяцев назад +2

      Yes, this is my absolutely favourite narrowboat couple channel. There are other channels with more viewers that I find kind of staged. Emily and Benny are just so natural and living a genuine creative life. It’s inspiring how resourceful they both are. I wouldn’t normally be into DIY, but I actually would be interested to see elements of Benny doing up the new boat. As long as Alan still gets a look in 😅.

    Do remember to put a couple of layers of parcel tape on your battens before spray foaming. It makes getting overspray off them soooo much easier.

  • @bradzoeclensy7638
    @bradzoeclensy7638 11 месяцев назад +1

    Hi guys, great little project. Please bare in mind if you intend to use her as a butty you will need a rudder and a bigger one than a powered boat. A outboard will give you no steering when it's not running. Don't want you to black the hull then have to grind it off to weld on rudder / tiller mech. You can tow her on very short ropes in a cross formation but it's not practical everywhere. Good luck.
    Regards Brad.
