David, many thanks for this. It may seem like just another canal vlog to you, but for us people from the US, it's a great comfort to see the smarter, more disciplined people getting back to real life. You deserve this due to following the rules to survive. Perhaps one day we'll be smart enough to learn from others? You deserve a double GNT now. Cheers!
Completely out of the blue with no prior warning signs, I had a near fatal heart attack in March right before COVID hit. I was life flighted to a nearby hospital, flatlined 6 times with 20 defibs required to revive me. Spent 6 days in ICU and by the end of that time everything had locked down (my wife couldn't even visit me). Then was sent home with meds, O2, and a portable defib unit I had to wear 24/7. But, of course, all rehab and doctor's offices were closed indefinitely at this point, everything closed, things looking pretty hopeless and we were isolated at home. My wife of 47 years is British and we have spent a lot of time in England (particularly up in Penrith and down around Lutterworth area with family) over the years. Many great memories. I started searching around randomly on TH-cam because one of those great memories was a trip we once took on a narrow boat. I found your channel. You really never know when you publish something where it will go, or the effect it will have do you? Through all the above, lying in ICU with tubes stuck in me, and recovering at home locked down, crusing through the English countryside with you has helped get me through. Thank you. Cheers and God Bless. [Ohio/USA]
Wow. That's quite the traumatic tale. Six flatlines?!! Incredible. I hope you are feeling better now and recovering as far as is possible. I'm really delighted the videos have been of some help. My best wishes for you.
@@CruisingTheCut Thank you, I am recovering well and your videos really did help get me through some pretty dark days. Keep on doing what you do so well, it is fascinating, entertaining and quite humorous as well.
Oh how we've missed your cruising vlogs! Really appreciate your other content in the meantime, no question, and quite entertaining too. But riding along with you like this, having a conversation as we go is just so relaxing and peaceful. Thank you, David, for once again sharing you journey.
I find watching your videos so relaxing after a hectic day in the South Texas oilfield. Your demeanor makes the videos all the more enjoyable and relaxing I wish I could live my life like you. Thank you for the video
I don't know about anyone else but a lot of these videos are starting to sound lot of the old WW2 news reels, I'm not complaining, but when a major incident involves a couple of stroppy swans, it does bring a smile to your face.
The most British video I've ever seen. The summer down pours with a backdrop of lush greenery. Polite small talk with passers by. The history and the sunshine after rain. What a pleasure to watch, thank you.
I imagine it's great being INSIDE the boat when raining, stove going, kettle on hearing the rain bouncing off the roof and watching it drip down the windows whilst you stay warm and dry!
I bow to your stern stuff. Timing two passing boats of about 55 feet each in around 10 seconds gives each moving at 2.75 feet per second, an average of 2.8 mph, or a moderate walking pace.
There's something very cozy about the rain, especially when you have your house with you - moor, wet togs off, quick hot shower, housecoat on, kettle on - bliss.
Good to see the lockdown over ,, but please be careful as we have seen here in eastern Canada , the problems facing the U.S. as many states opened up and their cases of the "crony virus " has really spiked and about half are younger people under 45 . We want you cruising , but we want you to be safe !!!!!!!!!!!
Binge watching your vlog has made the pandemic bearable! You have a calm, relaxing voice and we absolutely love the scenery and nature as well as the information and lessons about narrow boating. Thank you!
I'm sitting here, watching, listening. My (adult) son walks in right when you were saying "boat behind me", my son says "oh no!, not a boat!" "The horror"! Got me laughing so hard!
I've even noticed here (in a decidedly urban setting in Ontario, Canada) that the flora and fauna have benefitted from human covid isolation. The grass and trees are more lush and small wildlife is venturing out where it isn't as commonly seen anymore. I'm of the opinion that nature needed and got/is getting a well deserved break from us.
Hope the rain didn't dampen your spirits too much I bet you were very pleased to be able to leave the marina and get back to your nomadic life style. A lovely journey. Very pretty. Super video. Thanks David
Great Escape indeed, it's Tokyo Drift but with boats, one of the highlights was a family of swans terrorising the towpath for an unsuspecting walkers, and of course the obligatory cuppa at the end of a days Cruise. Freedom at long last he shouts. 😁☔
And there you stand, Mr CC, steadfastly on the stern deck of your vessel, interacting with nature and the vagarious weather of England; longing for dry clothes and a cuppa. Narrowboating is so perfect. Thanks for sharing; I enjoyed it.
Hi from 'down under".. after 13 weeks of mostly lock down I have finally caught you up - all the way from episode 1 - I have THOROUGHLY enjoyed the journey as I have traveled quite a bit of the canals in years gone by.. coming from a television background I really appreciate the good technical and creative product you produce, not to mention the subtle humor in your voice-overs.. Looking forward to keeping up with you now at a more leisurely pace. Cheers - Doug
It is hard to express the delight that I feel whenever I here that little guitar sting at the start of every vlog. Glad to see you're doing well my friend!
So glad to see you back. Right, a good cup of tea to celebrate. Not sure how it works for narrowboats but if I get soaked on a ride on an iffy day it's always a mile from home. But luckily I'm not sugar.
Hi yes as a child we lived in a house with the canal running behind and I found my way onto the canal towpath but promptly chased down the path by a mother swan she scared me to death !
The canal overgrown like that was really beautiful. It's fitting that it rained on you it's England and you will never ever forget this day. Good to see you back Cruising the Cut. : ) peace
Wow we have been together for over 200 episodes. I sure have enjoyed everyone .... so far. You make your videos enjoyable and you introduced us to other narrow boat vlogers. I will sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea and watch this video
I'm getting worried now, I just chill out watching these things and unless my wife suddenly decides to go off with the postman, it's unlikely I will get a narrow boat to live in anytime soon but .Christ, does it relax me watching it! I half wished we had an attractive postman and I never thought I'd ever say that.
I am happy you are back to cruising. All my cruising is via your videos and I look forward to every episode. It is far better to watch than the news, especially here in America. Your videos are blood pressure lowering! Thanks.
Hi David , good to see you out on the canals again despite the changeable weather, but as you say this is summer in England.Loved the Morris Minor Panda.
Oh no! What have you done?!!! David doesn't need more puns...you've probably started something you do realise this. But at least he's out on the water at last...and his vlogs are way cool.
Excellent video, as always. Good to see the boat moving about again, and the scenes of rain and the tea kettle was quite relaxing. Thanks again for another brief glimpse of life in the UK and on the cut.

It would be lovely to spend a rainy night, snug in bed, while hearing the patter of rain on the roof of the boat. Thunder and lightning would be a bonus. Thanks again for the great video. Makes for great day dreaming!
David I’m very glad you are welll. Quite wonderful to see a cruise, even a damp one. Quite like the wide angle lenses on the bow. The toweling off comment is classic CC humor. Thanks for the chuckle. The way the towpath looked I half expected to see a small boy accompanied by a yellow bear, tiger and other friends. Cheers!
NY decided to open my favorite state park for camping, very near my home so for the last week, and until July 5th my family and I are camping. There are many small narrow tributaries of the St. Lawrence river I lazily travel with my canoe my own little canal system. I actually thought of you frequently and when I came back to civilization made sure to check for your updates. It's so often your videos provide that moment to just go somewhere else throughout day. Speaking of locks, the St. Lawrence river, Eisenhower locks are a part of the park were we camp and throughout day we watch international cargo ships , coastguard cutters and Navy ships come and go from the Great Lakes to the Atlantic. Quite a show.
Over the duration of the pandemic I've watched several other narrow boat channels, when you were on lockdown... have to say I'm glad you're back... not sure if it's your camera work or your soothing voice and classic British wit, but you are still my favorite narrowboat vlogger... oh, and, umm... you've got something on your right chin, just there, off to the side...
I have never had twitter, I thought it was a very negative place full of trolls and nasty people. What is your experience? I follow on Instagram but you are not there very often.
Yes I was surprised when you said you had met people & gave the impression it was friendly. So is it like Instagram you set up an account & seek out your interests & like minded people? I don't anyone on Twitter except Bargain Hunt & I'd follow them haha I came onto Instagram for the THOWs & vanlife community.
Here I sit in dry Arizona. Your rain really hit the spot! I have a mountain out my back door and it is almost magic when it disappears into the rain clouds. Thanks David, for the glimpse into your day.
Delighted to see you back cruising...I have been watching all the previous ones these past few months to play catch up. One of my friends and husband are narrow boaters currently moored at Crick Marina and she told me about the channel....by far the best channel for narrow boating for we who do not live in UK.....stay safe, dry and look forward to more videos...
WOW! a compressed version of the real time run. I wasn't expecting that. You looked absolutely miserable in the rain, I bet you were quite happy that mooring was open! Cheers from the Valley of the Burning River!
Thank you - nice to see you out cruising again. The rain looked very heavy but it is all part of the experience so it’s good to see that...anybody who has been on a canal boat long enough is familiar with this. Better that it was on/off showers and not a continuously cold drizzle, I think. The rain ended, the sun peeked through at the end, what a glorious sight through your window!
You lifted my spirits and I am in the USA suffering with 95 deg F summer temps (of course with high humidity too). Great to see you cruising again. Thanks.
That was quite interesting to see the downpour on the canal.. first time I ever seen it rain that hard.. I figured you would be soaked to the bone after that one David. Glad you are back Cruising the Cut.. Cheers from Missouri USA!
I was watching this at lunch time so a cup of tea and a cheese sandwich was called for. Filmed before the very hot weather clearly, although we have that to look forward to. Good to see you again
Dear CC, delighted to see you free to cruise again. Top of the line vlog, I especially loved the ending part, having that personal touch, inside the boat, really helps wind down towards the end of the video and tie it all up. It really is superb! I’ve watched the video a few too many times (furloughed) it is fab! Keep up the good work as always!
I watched your Slow TV post of this cruise. The operator of the power boat that you overtook has no idea he was passed by one of the most leisurely narrowboaters on the entire system. If that was the limit of his speed, he should junk it! Good to see you back out, David.
David, many thanks for this. It may seem like just another canal vlog to you, but for us people from the US, it's a great comfort to see the smarter, more disciplined people getting back to real life. You deserve this due to following the rules to survive. Perhaps one day we'll be smart enough to learn from others? You deserve a double GNT now. Cheers!
Well 'spoken'! My thoughts exactly!

Great to see you back cruising the cut again
Back on the cut...PROPER 😎👍 the final whistling kettle scene is epic .
Oh how we've missed your cruising vlogs! Really appreciate your other content in the meantime, no question, and quite entertaining too. But riding along with you like this, having a conversation as we go is just so relaxing and peaceful. Thank you, David, for once again sharing you journey.
I like the bow camera perspective. Like I’m sitting out there and enjoying the ride but at the same time, not out in the elements, ha, ha.
I find watching your videos so relaxing after a hectic day in the South Texas oilfield. Your demeanor makes the videos all the more enjoyable and relaxing I wish I could live my life like you. Thank you for the video
Best narrowboat vlog out there by miles!
I don't know about anyone else but a lot of these videos are starting to sound lot of the old WW2 news reels, I'm not complaining, but when a major incident involves a couple of stroppy swans, it does bring a smile to your face.
The most British video I've ever seen. The summer down pours with a backdrop of lush greenery. Polite small talk with passers by. The history and the sunshine after rain. What a pleasure to watch, thank you.
Was litterally just thinking about when you'd get cruising again. Good to see videos of you actually back on the cut.
He's not called mooring the marina for nothing 😂
So good to watch your video's David, does my blood pressure a world of good, they should be on prescription.
Wonderful to see you back and for the cruise. So cozy in the rain, at least from a viewer's perspective.
I imagine it's great being INSIDE the boat when raining, stove going, kettle on hearing the rain bouncing off the roof and watching it drip down the windows whilst you stay warm and dry!
Great to see you back cruising again, David. Good luck in your continuing cruising. Stay Safe. Viktoria
I bow to your stern stuff.
Timing two passing boats of about 55 feet each in around 10 seconds gives each moving at 2.75 feet per second, an average of 2.8 mph, or a moderate walking pace.
Hope you had a cheese sandwich with that cup of tea...😀😉👍must be great to break cabin fever and get out cruising the cut..😁...!!!
There's something very cozy about the rain, especially when you have your house with you - moor, wet togs off, quick hot shower, housecoat on, kettle on - bliss.
Your videos are a treat David. I love watching nature pass by at 3 miles an hour.
Always a pleasure to see one of your vlogs David. Well done, well done indeed. A nice piece of cinematic artistry.
Good to see you underway again. Stay safe.
A day cruising in the rain is still a day cruising. Thank you for sharing.
Glad to see you back on the cut! We've been watching your slow tv travels during lockdown.
Thank you 😀 lovely to hear from you.
Good to see the lockdown over ,, but please be careful as we have seen here in eastern Canada , the problems facing the U.S. as many states opened up and their cases of the "crony virus " has really spiked and about half are younger people under 45 .

Binge watching your vlog has made the pandemic bearable! You have a calm, relaxing voice and we absolutely love the scenery and nature as well as the information and lessons about narrow boating. Thank you!
The biscuit purchases have gone up in our house, always seem to need another when watching your fabulous videos.
I'm sitting here, watching, listening. My (adult) son walks in right when you were saying "boat behind me", my son says "oh no!, not a boat!" "The horror"! Got me laughing so hard!
I've even noticed here (in a decidedly urban setting in Ontario, Canada) that the flora and fauna have benefitted from human covid isolation.

Good to see you and others out and about again despite the downpour. Love The Mucky Duck nickname and classic police car.
And there you stand, Mr CC, steadfastly on the stern deck of your vessel, interacting with nature and the vagarious weather of England; longing for dry clothes and a cuppa. Narrowboating is so perfect. Thanks for sharing; I enjoyed it.
welcome back, missed your shows.
The shows haven't stopped! :-)
The "rainy boating footage" was actually extremely soothing. Looking forward to a 3hour version of that :-D
Nice to see you back on the cut again David.
Hi from 'down under".. after 13 weeks of mostly lock down I have finally caught you up - all the way from episode 1 - I have THOROUGHLY enjoyed the journey as I have traveled quite a bit of the canals in years gone by.. coming from a television background I really appreciate the good technical and creative product you produce, not to mention the subtle humor in your voice-overs..

Nice to see you back cruising again, and a cup of tea.
It's like going back in time. Less people. The Morris police car. Overgrown grass. Brilliant video. All the best from Australia.
Just lovely, I'm a bit envious, but glad to see canal life carrying on.
It is hard to express the delight that I feel whenever I here that little guitar sting at the start of every vlog. Glad to see you're doing well my friend!
Oh...but isn't it grand to see you back on the water.
Best Wishes to thee.
So glad to see you back. Right, a good cup of tea to celebrate. Not sure how it works for narrowboats but if I get soaked on a ride on an iffy day it's always a mile from home. But luckily I'm not sugar.

What a lovely, calming video to wake up to. Here in America we are going into another round of lock downs. It's nice to live through you :)
Hard to believe how 16 people can dislike this video.loved the rain
He didn't show the cheese sandwich.
@@mikesloothaak679 such a truth there Mike.
The missing cheese sandwich shot can induce severe traumatic withdrawl symptoms.
So true...
Good to see you back on the high seas. Safe travels, and continued success with the vlog.
I’m quite addicted to your videos. Thank you so much!
I am happy you are back to cruising. All my cruising is via your videos and I look forward to every episode. It is far better to watch than the news, especially here in America. Your videos are blood pressure lowering! Thanks.
Wonderful and soothing as always..Loved the Morris Minor..
So nice to see you back out on the Canal's. I do love the sound of a whistling kettle! :-)
Hi David , good to see you out on the canals again despite the changeable weather, but as you say this is summer in England.Loved the Morris Minor Panda.
I really like the way you put up the trip in real time and then followed it up with the vlog version. More like this please.
Only half of you is made of stern stuff - the other half is bow stuff! ;-)
:grins: I was going to quip about taking a bow but considered we are all traumatised enough by Lockdown and civil unrest and so held my peace :).
Oh no!
What have you done?!!!
David doesn't need more puns...you've probably started something you do realise this.
But at least he's out on the water at last...and his vlogs are way cool.
This is such a good pun
Excellent video, as always. Good to see the boat moving about again, and the scenes of rain and the tea kettle was quite relaxing. Thanks again for another brief glimpse of life in the UK and on the cut.
Great video as always David thanks!
Cup of coffee in the 30 C heatwave watching someone else in the rain, marvelous! :-)

Enjoy your vlog. Glad you are back
Hi! Thanks. I haven't been away, there have been other videos which hopefully TH-cam has put your way...?
I should have added glad you are back on the water. I have seen your other recent videos and enjoy them all.
(Arkansas fan) YAY on the loose !!!
Missed these video's David..... Good to see you out cruising again...😉👍
Glad to see you back out pal Dont envy you with them locks all best David David lol too many Davids I think lol
There are never too many Davids... Lol
Never too many Davids!
I live in the high desert east of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The rain was a welcome change. Could almost feel it.
A fairly pleasant day ... Could have been worse ... Might have run short of tea and cheese ...
It would be lovely to spend a rainy night, snug in bed, while hearing the patter of rain on the roof of the boat. Thunder and lightning would be a bonus. Thanks again for the great video. Makes for great day dreaming!
The vistas were beautiful, but the high drama episodes almost had too much nail-biting tension!
David I’m very glad you are welll. Quite wonderful to see a cruise, even a damp one. Quite like the wide angle lenses on the bow. The toweling off comment is classic CC humor. Thanks for the chuckle. The way the towpath looked I half expected to see a small boy accompanied by a yellow bear, tiger and other friends. Cheers!
Why don't you get a sou'wester? I have one which is big, makes me look pretty stupid....until it rains, then everyone else looks stupid
I don't usually go boating in the rain!
NY decided to open my favorite state park for camping, very near my home so for the last week, and until July 5th my family and I are camping. There are many small narrow tributaries of the St. Lawrence river I lazily travel with my canoe my own little canal system.

That thumbs down must be a mistake
Perhaps a disgruntled CRT person...they were just about to mow that towpath!!

I enjoy many lovely chats on Twitter. If people are rude (rare), I just mute them.

@@CruisingTheCut yes on FB where I talk horses mostly as I have a horse I'm there for the community, information etc
Thank you David, I needed that! I hadn't realized how attached I have become to your closing music after not hearing it for a while.
Here I sit in dry Arizona. Your rain really hit the spot! I have a mountain out my back door and it is almost magic when it disappears into the rain clouds. Thanks David, for the glimpse into your day.

Welcome back to the outside world, David. Thank you for taking us all along with you.
The color on your video is just gorgeous. I'm watching it on my 4K Sony TV and it's as good as anything I have ever seen.
Thank you for sparing us the towel down, the imagery was quit sufficient. It's good to see you back on the cut.
Your videos are so therapeutic, thank you.
„4mph fly past„ LOVE THIS DESCRIPTION!!!😁😁😁
WOW! a compressed version of the real time run. I wasn't expecting that.
You looked absolutely miserable in the rain, I bet you were quite happy that mooring was open!
Cheers from the Valley of the Burning River!
The soothing sound of rain on the roof puts me to sleep. I had to watch the blog three times. Unfortunately I could only give one thumb up.
Thank you - nice to see you out cruising again. The rain looked very heavy but it is all part of the experience so it’s good to see that...anybody who has been on a canal boat long enough is familiar with this. Better that it was on/off showers and not a continuously cold drizzle, I think.
The rain ended, the sun peeked through at the end, what a glorious sight through your window!
Excellent start to the cruising season and as a CRT lockie, the towpath jungle a reminder of what we are all going back to.
Welcome back David. As ever, a Cut above the rest. 😉👍
Hi! Thanks. I haven't been away, there have been other videos which hopefully TH-cam has put your way...?
I’m an avid follower. This feels like your return to semi normality and leading the way. Within acceptable parameters of course....👍.
You lifted my spirits and I am in the USA suffering with 95 deg F summer temps (of course with high humidity too). Great to see you cruising again. Thanks.
Nice to see you made it through the plague, and are now back cruising
So happy to see you out again. Even with the rain it was wonderful to see. Thank you.
Lovely to see a proper cruising vlog after so long, even if it was a bit damp. Good to have you back!
That was quite interesting to see the downpour on the canal.. first time I ever seen it rain that hard.. I figured you would be soaked to the bone after that one David. Glad you are back Cruising the Cut.. Cheers from Missouri USA!
Good as always! It's been 5 years ago when I left the Britain! Still missing the Great British country side 😭
its been 35 years for me, I miss the bakeries, fish and chips and the green landscape.
Must be so good to be on the move again. Love your vlogs - no music to spoil the ambience!
Really enjoyed your traveling video, and I fixed myself a cup of tea and a cheese sandwich! Thanks for sharing!
I was watching this at lunch time so a cup of tea and a cheese sandwich was called for. Filmed before the very hot weather clearly, although we have that to look forward to. Good to see you again
The bow camera in the rain is ASMR Gold.
Dear CC, delighted to see you free to cruise again. Top of the line vlog, I especially loved the ending part, having that personal touch, inside the boat, really helps wind down towards the end of the video and tie it all up. It really is superb! I’ve watched the video a few too many times (furloughed) it is fab! Keep up the good work as always!
I watched your Slow TV post of this cruise. The operator of the power boat that you overtook has no idea he was passed by one of the most leisurely narrowboaters on the entire system. If that was the limit of his speed, he should junk it! Good to see you back out, David.
