Said it more than once--you couldn't have found a better spot to break down. So pleased everything has turned out well and look forward to seeing you and Sloe Patrol back in the water. (BTW, trousers work, too, but baby wipes are great at removing wet or damp glue from fingers and projects.) The magazine racks and all the storage spaces look terrific. It's all looking like home.
Not going to lie TH-cam has been diabolical without your daily videos, your the best channel on TH-cam these days, the boats looking great nice job James all the best for 2022
Hello again ! So nice to see you. Being new to your Chanel I’ve had to watch back episodes to see your journey and wow the difference not only in your boat but how relaxed you’ve become in front of the camera 📷! The boat it’s self is becoming a home it looks amazing. I’d like to say hello to carol, you are such a special person and the kindness you’ve shown to James , well I can’t express in words. James is so lucky to have not just you carol but the friends he has! Amazing bunch of people! Lucky James ! Have a great week every one! Get that vessel on water !! Lol happy days 😊
Hey James hope all is well. Took my oldest (9) skiing today for the 2nd time ever. Went much better than the first time! Yes we have ski hills in Wisconsin, not very big, about 5-600 ft drop. But we do have the cold and snow!
This video reminded me of the phrase “No cash. No splash” which is boatyard talk for all work should be paid for before the boat can go back in the water. It’s also the name of a documentary that features all the boatyards on the Thames from Toughs at Teddington down to Tower Bridge. You can still find it on TH-cam
I'd wait until the boat's in the water before trimming your door. Steel isn't inflexible (like when you redid your floor when it buckled/changed in the water).
That’s what I call resourceful. Like the “retro” magazine rack…the whole thing blends well together. Don’t trim the door before the boat’s back in the cut. The “hard standing” changes the shape of the structure. Again….you were lucky in your misfortune. Cheers 🥂 🇨🇦
Hi James you are doing a great job. Love watching you turn a shell into a home. It’s looking good. Love all the small detail you put into it all. Have great week.
James, nice looking cupboards. Have you thought about making shutters or sliding panels for your window coverings since you are very creative with plywood. Carry on.
Hi James, I am so pleased the engineering has been completed. I bet you can't wait to get back on the cut. Love your book shelf and the built in cabinet. They look really good and very professional. Your boat is looking really good. Take Care.
Hi James, I really do like the book rack now that is finished, as some of us up north would say , it's looking tickety boo. glad that Sloe Patrol is repaired and that she will be going back on the cut. Looking forward to the next vlog. Stay safe
Looks good! Like the way they put together the new coupling, appears like it will last longer and accept shocks better. Great that they gave you a spare as well. The interior looks great!
Everything is looking good James, and definitely starting to look like a home. Love all the details you have put on the cupboard doors and the book rack . The lighting is so nice. Thanks for posting. 🙏😊
Hey James, good to see you engines sorted. I’m moored up in camden at the moment. Let us know if your heading down these ways and I’ll keep an eye on moorings
Starting to look a great little place to live. Off to Reading on Tuesday to look at ANOTHER Boat. One question, nothing to do with this Vlog, what Nicholson's Guide did you use to go through Berkhamsted as i may need to get from Reading to Leighton Buzzard. Thanks in advance.
Hey James have a look at this video on TH-cam “We’re the Russos - walk through the Wingman Oasi 540” and look at the table it’s exactly what you are trying to do, love the vlog by the way.
Uh oh. You hit a nerve there. "When everything has a place and when everything is in it's place......" Hmmm. I need to do some work on my study, The book rack looks teriffic. Everything seems to be coming together, at a lot of levels!

I agree with this being the best channel. It’s so good I bought a boat. 😃😃😃

Don’t agree with ‘best channel on TH-cam’ imho, there are others much better. Not just narrowboat.
Have to agree with Lee. YT isn't half as much fun now that James actually has other things to do instead of making videos for us!
You are doing a great job. Your boat is starting to look cozy and homely
Excellent James, what an inspiration
brilliant job with storage James, I'm well impressed.
It is looking great James.
Hurrah!
It's looking a whole lot different to when I last saw it. Getting there, mate.
All the best.

Looks fantastic mate. We’ll done. Glad to see you’ll be back in the cut soon.
Nice one James 👏🏻👏🏻
She's really looking like a home now. Well done.

Looking great. Those magnets work a treat

If you need to do more holes like that use a Forstner bit, they are made to drill flat bottomed blind holes for the doweling.
James, the master of magnets! :D

As usual . Good work and good to see you. Happy Days.
Loving the videos mate was just watching the olds ones and then the new one came looking good now
James that is very good to see the work done, fingers crossed it is waterproof!!! The interior fixings look amazing. You take care and thank you.
Hi James you are doing a great job. Love watching you turn a shell into a home. It’s looking good. Love all the small detail you put into it all. Have great week.
James your narrowboat is looking homely now,but when are you getting curtains, everyone being able to look in all the time would get on my nervös.🙂
Always good to have a robust shaft. Looks well sorted.
James, nice looking cupboards. Have you thought about making shutters or sliding panels for your window coverings since you are very creative with plywood. Carry on.
Hi James, I am so pleased the engineering has been completed. I bet you can't wait to get back on the cut. Love your book shelf and the built in cabinet. They look really good and very professional. Your boat is looking really good. Take Care.
Coming soon to "Young James's Narrowboat Channel". Some nice prop action and hopefully that "Very Stern Looking Deck" will get sorted too 🙂
Howdy James snd glad to see the boat will be back on the cut Monday. The side cabinets snd shelves came up a treat. Greet work. Keith.
Looking good James, well done. Be nice to see you bobbing along again, Kevin
good vid on you boat thanks lee
Bit by bit, she's getting to look all settled, what's the expression; "Ship-shape and Bristol fashion". ;-)
Love this the lights and colors are wonderful
With all the magnets you are using your boat will soon be one bi magnet haha 😂

What a difference you have made & constructed, all beginning with that horrible bilge! Congrats on your past & future victories!
Love the videos James but can I just ask, when will you be getting a hot water boiler fitted.
I love the under gunwel lighting
Everything is coming together well l. Look forward to seeing what you do with the engine bay.
James, the drill you're looking for is called a "Forsner bit", bit late now, but knowledge for next time...
Everything is looking good James, and definitely starting to look like a home. Love all the details you have put on the cupboard doors and the book rack . The lighting is so nice. Thanks for posting. 🙏😊
Yay for progress
Hey James, good to see you engines sorted. I’m moored up in camden at the moment. Let us know if your heading down these ways and I’ll keep an eye on moorings
I was yelling out but you didn't hear me put the top one in first not the bottom one.
Looking great James, who can you nag for those curtains? 🤣🤣
Starting to look a great little place to live.
Off to Reading on Tuesday to look at ANOTHER Boat.
One question, nothing to do with this Vlog, what Nicholson's Guide did you use to go through Berkhamsted as i may need to get from Reading to Leighton Buzzard.
Thanks in advance.
Just watched and all is looking good shame the pine door did swell but I and you can fix it
Cool, back in the cut you go.
Hey James have a look at this video on TH-cam “We’re the Russos - walk through the Wingman Oasi 540” and look at the table it’s exactly what you are trying to do, love the vlog by the way.
Cheers for the tip
I’ll check it out
👍🏼
It’s a bit late now but it’s a forstner bit you need for making holes like that
How much is the bill.? For those of us that are also considering a boat life, it would be great to know what things cost
Uh oh. You hit a nerve there. "When everything has a place and when everything is in it's place......" Hmmm. I need to do some work on my study,
The book rack looks teriffic. Everything seems to be coming together, at a lot of levels!
👍👌❤🇨🇦
First!
