Thank you so much for this! A valuable insight which will help me buy my own new floating home. 👍🏼

Omg

Hey guys, Just wondering if you’ve given up? Haven’t seen any video’s in a month, but was mostly worried if you and Bex’s are ok. You’re my two favourite adventurers, lol, except with closures, breaches, iced over canals and all that goes with being a Nomadic Crobot I was worried for you. Please let me (us) know you’ll be coming back. Love you and miss you. Hey!! Maybe a quick music video! Love your singing and playing.

..hope y'all are o.k.

This is my introduction to your channel, and getting stuck up against the bank and then realising you can't go anywhere because of snake signs had me become a subscriber instantly as I'd not laughed so hard in a while! I'm assuming on and upwards, just cosmetics your health's intact 😉

Somehow stumbled across your channel and I'm hooked. Trying to catch up on all your episodes. You're both proper brilliant. You need your own TV show. Hope all is good in Crobet Towers. Keep up the good work.

No survey ? I see and hear this so often and never understand it.

One nearly crushed me and my little white thing on a big lock .the narrow boat owner went for a swim😂

from all the minor repairs and the damage you can see a lot of people hit the bridge, many of the guide rails are bent and missing too. you guys did amazing with the situation.

Mondays are a lot less enjoyable without you. Hope you will be back very soon.

One day you'll climb on the roof when that boat is moving in a lock slip and end up between the boat and lock wall not good don't do it

I spent so many happy days on the canal tow path. Memories! The River Ouse also has lots of memories.

Even the second attempt you were steering into the wall, think about you pivot points considering thrust direction and that sorta thing will become easier

I don't often laugh out loud at a KZbin video! Well done guys 😄🤣😂

I hope you two are ok ?

Can you drive a canal longboat without taking a test?

Wow, I'm.shocked at that negligence 😮😢 I was brought up on narrowboats from 9yrs old and it's basic physics regarding the angles etc for turning and bridges, sorry if sound harsh but that crash i have zero sympathy as much as it hurts to see it

What a pair of idiots 😂😂 I've been a boater for 40 years and a boat yard owner for 25 never have I seen such incompetence... you are a danger to others aswell as yourself, to think you thought you could quit you're jobs and just boat about 😂😂 pure ignorance

Im gonna need a bigger boat 😂

Strikes me you should learn on canals before you cruise on rivers 😂

Bex , we know but you love each other, God bless you both. Chris knows. Have fun .

This is why women rule the world

Amsterdam, calling 📞 ,, the Keys ! ,, ,, Who's Keys ? ,, ,, the Kings 🤴 Keys!,, 😊

Seems to me large canal barges should carry a little winch

HI.. AND HEADS UP... DONT DRIVE UP THE MIDDLE OF FAST MOVING WATER.. STAY AS CLOSE TO THE SIDE AS IS SAFE.. THE YOU WILL FIND IT IS FASTER AND EASIER TO DO SO... ALL THE BEST FOR 2025... TONE U.K.

You have to time your passage through the bridge to 'slack water low' The tidal flow takes you with it and if you get stuck a rising tide will lift you off.

My Sympathies, Keep both your Chins up. Thanks for the video. Good Luck.

Waaaay too fast under the bridge. Wtaf

Nice one Noah oh a CHRIS 🤣🤣✌️

Glad you two & the boat survived! What a tumultuous first outing! The engine sounding like that may have to do with timing being off, or fuel/air mixture being too rich or lean. Diesel engines have a very high compression ratio, so they are a bit more noisy than petrol/gasoline engines. Compared to first set-out from marina, it is definitely MUCH louder. I would check all lines/hoses/filters for obstructions etc, and then check the timing, and then check to make sure the valve train is working properly, in time or not. Definitely needs a looking at, possibly by a diesel mechanic. Hope you get it sorted asap!
