    One of the crew on the RNLI boat is our son. :) He was at the back and had blue gloves on. :) We live in New Zealand and we had also shared some of your vlogs with him. Isn't this a small world we live in, especially when there is the internet? :)

      @@walkerclinton1626 we had our last dog until he was 16 years old he was a Portuguese water hound, absolutely beautiful dog, we still miss him☹️ and he left us five years ago, haven't been able to get another dog as my wife and I are pretty much unable to take a dog out, due to my wife's dodgy knees and my knackered back, Oscar the water hound was my daughter's dog, when she left to study musical theatre in the UK, Oscar was already an old dog, it was hard to watch his last year's, it became so difficult for him to get about, many would have taken him to the vet a couple of years earlier, but it was too difficult, when he finally did go he had had a heart attack and literally was in a very sad state, it broke my heart to have to say goodbye, hardest thing I ever had to do!
      That's another reason I find it hard get another dog, when we eventually move to UK and have a house in the countryside and a boat on the canal I would love another dog, but we're not getting younger. Who knows😊

    3. Shaun sometimes I just want to hug you to pieces cuz you’re so damn cute!!!!!
    4. Colin.... I know I’ve alluded to this before but you amaze me every time. You .. are.. TRULY gifted !!! Not to diminish all the hard work you put into these vlogs, but you have a gift!! You are an artist. You have a vision and you create these amazing pieces. I’m on TH-cam all day ( no, I don’t have a life!) and you are the best vlogger out there. If they gave out Golden Globes for this, you’d have a case full! It’s so hard to put into words. The half hour flies by and you leave us craving more! Thank you soooo much for sharing your gift with us!

    I have been meaning to post this for a couple of days - though "MilliesMom M" somewhat beat me to it. Excellent video; thank you so much. On Fran & Rich's video I had already seen you using your long pole to good effect (Ooh! Matron!) and to see the results - shots aside the boat as it sped-along and of the front ploughing through the water - wow. And, from the previous video, sitting atop the roof for a fantastic headshot narration. Etc, etc - so many excellent cinematic techniques employed but never as cleverness; always to enhance the narration. Then we come to the amazing research you do - so informative; so well threaded into the journey; so beautifully presented. I do not know a better YT channel on travel which weaves superb filming and history/travel information as well as you do - it is definitely broadcast-quality standard. Then again, it is better than tv because it has the informal, personal moments which really enhance it. Brilliant chaps. Again, thank you; an absolute joy to watch and we have learnt so much.

    Hi Lads - looks like that was a ring tensioner ! Moving water can develop vortices, vertical and horizontal. Sudden surges - unpredictable waves - up currents down currents and a thousand other things. A canal boat is just that - a 'CANAL' boat. Lovely stand up room to live in. The same length of boat that is ready for the sea would have little room to stand because of the shape of the hull. VERY unusual to have that happen in a lock - but that was a BIG lock ! - PS: Oh how many times I have heard "Oh go ahead - it's safe' - 'Don't worry I have been doing this for years' - It's OK I am an expert' - and my absolute favourite 'Don't try to tell me my job ....blah blah blah' The water in that lock looked like it was boiling - Colins gut feeling was right ! Glad it was not worse.

    • @richardlowes7183
      @richardlowes7183 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@FoxesAfloat Damn Straight it makes sense - your brain is processing all of what it sees and feels - the motion of the boat under your feet, the behaviour of the water on the surface that your eyes can see - comparing these things to it's past experience in such conditions (canal) - and it does not have time to form a coherent response to these things, it just knows VERY DIFFERENT - so it gives you a feeling. Follow your feeling next time !

    Excellent vlog once again. Delighted you decided to backtrack as suggested to go and visit the National Waterways Museum in Ellesmere Port on the Shropshire Union canal. BTW Henry Berry who you mentioned in this episode, was the engineer who designed the Sankey Navigation/ St Helens Canal ( the first canal of the industrial age built in the 1750's just before the Bridgewater Canal). This canal begins at Spike Island in Widnes on the opposite bank of the Mersey from Marsh Lock on the Weaver Navigation. Boats can enter the canal at Spike Island but its a tricky passage plan to get there. Sadly only small sections of it are in water today so its not possible to travel more than a few hundred metres on the Sankey beyond Spike Island. The Cuddington moored at the museum is a River Weaver packet boat and is named after the Cheshire Village of Cuddington which is near to Northwich where the boat was built. Have fun on the travels.

    Y'all have done it again! Provided amazing video and facts galore, a gob of chuckles and guffaws, plus aw after aw (for Otis and all four of you on that blow up paddle board)! Thanks for the warning about being out-of-controled by the freaky current because if that had snuck up on me, I'd have been alarmed even more than I ended up being! Please continue to create and provide top notch entertainment for mental health boosts which I'm certain boost y'all as well because you're actually living your dream! Bye for now. See you soon! Gosh, I need to stop grinning now because my face's a bit tight and tingly.

    Oh wow. Really enjoyed the whole vlog you guys--history, RNLI--bless 'em, extra Otis--aaah sweet boy, thrilling lock mishap (held my breath when you bumped into the edge of the lock, and when Fran and Rich ganged agley) and the paddleboarding. Such fun, such lovely humour too. Thanks for brightening my Fridays.

    I need to add that I LOVE the outtakes - I needed to laugh, it's been that sort of week - and you two never fail to deliver! You both balance your sense of humor with such thoughtful and well-researched information, beautiful videos, great music, and willingness to share thoughts and feelings on very sensitive, difficult topics. Tricky stuff indeed. Thank you once again for sharing a slice of your lives today - another virtual adventure for me on this rainy day!

    You boys must have bigger balls than me! There is no way you would get me on a tidal river in a narrowboat. I would be shitting cement! Glad you make it safely and just loved the outtakes.

    So delighted to see Otis having a fab time, nose sniffing at all the sailing sights and sounds. He deserved you -and you deserved him after all the lows…
    I lost my 16 year old dog, Georgie, whilst under solo lockdown. I barely coped. Now have ( very) lively puppy… He just about saved my mental health - I was on the brink…
    I used to have a narrow boat, but now in flat in London and you guys are my chance to imagine I’m still on the water. The work you put into these videos is amazing.
    Happy sailing you lovely pair - and Otis!
