Normally this sort of decoration is not my cup of tea, but they made an amazing job of it. Everything fits together and I just love it ❤❤❤❤❤.

[@CruisingAlba]

Oh thanks Gabrielle! 💜 xx

[@veronicaroach3667]

What a huge difference having the extra width makes ! - the rooms are still small of course but so much more easy on the eys than the normal narrow narrowboats !!! I could live happiuly on this boat because of that difference, but never on the narrow ones - this is quirky, artistic, a little crazy, but a happy place to be !!! The next owners will probably change a few things, but what I really do not like is the outside 'theme' - really unpleasant to look at, and that would have to go right away !!! Good luck with your sale tho, I am not in the market, but I'm sure there will be a buyer !!!!1

This boat is absolutely gorgeous. The yellow 💛 bedroom is stunning. 👍🏼🤍🐶🐾

Great vlog! Toady is, indeed, a work of art! I hope the future owers appreciate her!

[@shirleygreaves9650]

I remember Toady from the amazing flotilla on Henley On Thames with all 3 boats together, that was one of my favourite videos of all time. What a fabulous, stylish boat inside and out, I hope they get a sale soon. The last time we saw Zoe on this channel she was selling Marigold, and was pregnant and moving onboard Toady with her partner. No mention of the baby I hope everything went well there. I’m thinking maybe they are moving on land as they’ve now got a little family. Lovely vlog Marina. I really enjoyed it. Lots of love. xxxx

WOW.! What a barge. What a conducted tour and what a superb colour scheme. Time just flew.

[@janistotham-davies4300]

What a beautiful boat Tody is, wow!

[@sheilajoseph9953]

Stunning quirky boat. Think it will be snapped up. 😊

[@stringingdaisies3429]

Another great vlog. A very quirky and spacious interpretation. Toady will sell quickly if the engine, hull, and electrics satisfy the surveyor. İ m surprised the woodburner wqs not fully plumbed in as it gave the impression that it was an artisitc project rather than a home. For a buyer with the same taste it's a doozy!

[@markdixon3632]

Wow that’s amazing would love to live on a boat

[@cece624]

Miles and Marina, looking forward to next week’s video. Glad to hear that you’re moving to the Kennet and Avon canal for the winter! Greeting from the snowy Rocky Mountains region of Montana, U.S.A.

I'm not usually a fan of modern art. However the way it's been done here still manages to be tasteful enough to be livable without driving you crazy. AND it makes a nice change from all the traditional ways narrow boats tend to get decorated and designed!! To me they all seem a bit _too_ old-fashioned in their liveries and internal design, but this adds a much more fresh and modern spin on things!! It's certainly unique, that's for sure, and will no doubt get looks and photos taken anywhere it goes! Personally I'd actually want to redesign the entire narrow boat from the ground up to look super sleek and modern, borrowing from modern yacht and super-yacht styling and interior design, but that's just a personal thing. I'm also still a bit confused why all narrow boats are built using steel hulls, since we now have better/cheaper building materials and methods that _don't_ require constant re-coating to prevent rust! Is it because of the potential for debris within canals or is it simply tradition to build with steel hulls that everyone to this day sticks to??

[@cece624]

Thanks for sharing a tour of the inside of Toady. Yelow and Zoey, you are both so artistic!! Good luck with the sale. Best wishes for the next phase of your lives.

[@CruisingAlba]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@lindawilliams5478]

Toddy is a wonderful work of art. I know you will miss living on it . Thanks for putting on your channel.

[@CruisingAlba]

Thanks for watching Linda 💜 xx

[@thornbird6768]

This is fantastic , great use of space 👍🏻 very artistic . I ❤ this narrow boat

[@paulinehiggins8239]

I know there are heaps who will love this but at 74 it’s a bit to much for me though still some lovely things there.

[@fp30e]

Hi Marina, Your friends are really nice, and I remember them painting the outside of their boat, was it last year or the year before, and I see they have added more to their outside paint job. It is certainly a one off quirky amazing boat. Well done to them. I wish them well on their new adventure. Spoolbox

[@dave64340]

Great video! I’m sure there will be a bidding war for Toadie . I’m sure the new owners will appreciate how special that boat is!

[@angcam42]

❤Wow beautiful boat

[@CruisingAlba]

Glad you like it 💜 xx

[@tomsargeant83]

[@simon-nb-Betsyray]

What a great boat but what a shame their letting her go, but l do wish Zoe & Zello all the best in their new adventure what ever they do.

[@MylesIsAReallyLongName]

Beautiful

[@thehealthjunkie8996]

oh love the boat guys! Oh no where are you going to?! Yelow and Zoe lovely to meet you in Henley that time. xx Sharon

[@DIYGUY1-2-3]

Its not a colour scheme for everyone and may affect the value but lets see. Good luck.

[@beverleyshaw7210]

Beautiful home for someone, very nicely decorated. Hopefully it sells soon.

[@CruisingAlba]

Thanks Beverly 💜 xx

[@TrogART]

Very quirky design, may put some off even though I did not mind it, wonder what the roof is like under the turf, something like that retains moister under it and will create rust, this is a problem. Nothing on the engine or exterior I notice. By the way a flotilla is a group of 10 or more yachts.

[@anniemac3075]

It's artificial grass, just read the spec & definitely isn't real.

[@TrogART]

@@anniemac3075 jeez I know, I have some. It is designed to allow water to go through it, the water then will rust the metal under it, simple fact.

[@anniemac3075]

@@TrogART 😸 fair enough, I wouldn't touch it in any case as it's plastic. Have a nice day.

[@Tass...]

I have so many questions that I cannot ask.

[@thehealthjunkie8996]

Shame you guys are leaving boating Zoe and Yelow. Good luck in your new adventure on land!?

[@TOECUTTER200]

To busy built and sold many boats devalued a lot sad to say we will see
