    I have to say this, I spent 20 years in the U.S. Navy. We visited England one time back in the early 90’s. I had no idea that the English countryside was so beautiful. Thank you sharing the beauty that I missed. Maybe I will get another chance to visit and spend sometime on a narrow boat.

    Hello Heidi - greetings from Poland
    "Every day is an adventure" - being with you, that's absolutley true. What an incredible journey to get to the Llangollen Basin. That must have been a bit scary at times because of the width of the canal and the draught of your boat.
    Thanks for the info on Pudding The Pug. He's adorable and certainly has a splendid quality of life being with you.
    The shopping expedition was a real cardio workout! Wow - that looked very hard work.
    An absolutley smashing video (lovely camera work by Jacquie at times). I really enjoyed it. Thanks for taking me along. Stay safe please.

    Don’t knock jogging, it’s a great spectator sport.
    Llangollen is as tight as a tiger in places but is brilliant because it generates cooperation.
    Some might find it stressful to pass through the narrows but either cooperate, coordinate or learn how to reverse.
    Some of my best memories have been in the narrows with helping the uncertain ones or listening to the experienced ones.
    Thanks for another great Vlog.🙏

    Well that certainly brought back some memories! I got sent on ahead with a walkie talkie thingy when we went through those narrows and I told Jim it was all clear so he set off towards Llangollen and then I saw a boat coming the other way. Oh boy, did I get told off for not spotting it before he’d untied and started off. You’re right about the granny trolled and the rucksacks, they’re invaluable. Did I tell you I love your videos? Better than a Carry On film!

    HI, Heidi, Just started watching your channel, binge watching and have just finished this episode. Scenery and canal look lovely. We have hired boats on the Mon and Brec a few times, and its fairly similar! On the M and B told you can moor anywhere! No you can't, once you you get off the centre and close to thecanalside, you nearly always ground! total pain in the arse pushing off all the time. Still love it though!
    Keep up the smut and innuendo, love it, Offto watch a couple more now, take care.

    • @TheNarrowboatPirate
      @TheNarrowboatPirate  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Ahoy, thanks for watching ….. well a lot of boat builders say that the bottom doesn’t need it because it’s so far underwater the oxygen doesn’t get to it so it can’t rust. Also lots of dry docks just rest the boat on pieces of wood so you can’t even get under to black it anyway. I’m due for blacking first week in November so I’ll be checking my bottom then too 😳🤣

      I think it’s 28 inch prop (there was a photo) and I’ll measure it when out for blacking later in the year but lots have said it’s a big un but it needs to be having a black stone gear box apparently, but the Llangollen recommends a max of 2ft 6 draft and mine is 2ft 9 and more underway hence me not being able to come out of tickover and it taking over 4hrs 😃
