Our Most EXCITING Day of Narrowboating!

[@gonewiththewynns]

Doh, 🙈 we put in the wrong flag for England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿! If we’re ever allowed back in the country, Jason will wear a budgie smuggler with the proper flag on it as retribution. 🩲

[@iKvetch558]

LOL...no worries...but did you realize that boat was called The "Wraith" and not "Wrath"? I mean...it is really cool either way, since one is a deadly sin and the other is a dead spirit, but I am positive there was an i in that name. ✌😁

[@hardpass9855]

I’m so confused about this beer engine? Please explain! I bartended for over 20 years and my parents owned a tavern (beer and wine only) and a Bar (beer, wine and liquor) since I was 10 yrs old. I’m from the US. I’ve never in my life heard of a beer engine. So I’m being very honest can you explain what it is please?!!! I think your talking about a beer tap? Thank you💞

[@carlbeaver7112]

@@hardpass9855 It's been years since I've heard the term making it difficult for me to recall where I may have been when I heard it.

[@gonewiththewynns]

I thought it was Wrath too until I went back & looked. The size of the A fools your eye into not seeing that skinny "I". Honest mistake when there's a lot going on. Curious Minion

[@reneartois616]

@@hardpass9855 In UK, it's a hand pump /hand pull or just called a pump. Bitters/cask ales are pumped up from the cellar rather than using gas - called pulling a pint. They are served at cellar temperature. The ones that use gas would be called a tap or tap handle and serve fizzy beer usually a larger at cold temperatures. Ciders could be either spending on type.

[@CruisingTheCut]

Awwww 😍😍😍 It was such a pleasure to spend time with you both! And I’m so pleased you had a blast on the canal. You’ve captured the joy of narrowboating perfectly 😀

[@cornishwolves69]

Love this couple,happy boating 🛶

[@samm0110]

Ah, another lovely Sunday morning with the Wynns!

[@davefoster7770]

Lovely evening here. The vids drop at round about beer o'clock... Which is nice.

[@TunganeKatuke]

That was a trip of the life time gone with the wynnns enjoy ❤ love you guys ka ki_te

[@tomlocke3674]

I love the way you two relate to each other, you love each other’s company.

[@jkonet1]

This may have been my all time favorite episode. Just fantastic, the adventure, the scenery, the overall event. Thank you for taking me along on the trip together. Loved it!

[@jamieopulence]

How beautiful - you’ve done a tremendous job at showcasing the best of Great Britain 🇬🇧

[@hardpass9855]

I absolutely loved the last two videos of this💞 I’ve been really wanting to see Europe and this has inspired me even more💞 The absolute beauty. The ducks are so beautiful! The lambs frolicking about 🙏🥰 Thank you Nikki and Jason for taking us on this amazing trip!! If I ever make it there I absolutely want to do exactly what you’ve shared 🥰🥂

[@suecooper3016]

It was great to see your excitement & enjoyment of our beautiful countryside, & yes they are called beer pumps !!x

[@williamrandall1415]

I have watched many different narrow boat videos. Your work is by far the best. Between the happy banter and video production. Well done

[@joanhall3718]

Funny, I’m from the US and I’ve never heard it called a beer engine. It’s what’s on tap, and sometimes what’s on the nitrogen tap.

[@tonyhalsall3170]

I am literally astonished that my one time favourite Polynesian sailors are cruising U.K. canals. Absolutely love it.

[@rmkep]

Great VLOG guys. You raise the bar with every new adventure!

[@keithallison3756]

This series of you guys going through the cuts has been so refreshing and fun. Now I'm following cruising the cut and others. I had no idea that was there. So neat!!

[@nb5871]

You two are pro's on that long boat, 🐄🦆🐑well done Jason and Nikki! Loving these video's of UK and Wales.

[@txfigment]

Watched you guys and Kara and Nate back to back on the same canal. So beautiful.

[@samanthaclayton2883]

Me, too! I didn't know this existed, but now two of my favorite KZbin channels have done it. So cool!!!

[@MrHenhei]

Magnificent how sailors are sailors no matter on what waters. Also been following David on his journey on the waterways :)

[@vivellasmum]

I loved these canal videos, you guys are so watchable. It's on my bucket list to go on a narrowboat holiday. Thank you!

[@harleyjohnston8054]

We travel from Australia every year to wander the canals of the UK on our narrowboat "Lazy Bee" and watch numerous vlogs, especially Cruising The Cut so to watch your take on "our" canals is truly wonderful. Your obvious joy doing what we do for half the year every year is beautiful. Thank you, and hopefully one of the hire companies, ABC obviously, uses your vlog to encourage more people to give it a try. Harley & Shelley NB Lazy Bee.

[@boatman909]

The UK nearly lost access to its canals in the ‘80s and ‘90’s. Fortunately enough people realized that they were great for recreational boating and the government (and lots of volunteers) worked to rescue most of them. The Llangollen canal was definitely my favourite. So good to go down memory lane with you both. Thank you.😊

[@Leland189]

You two made my Sunday Morning ! My family came from Norway, thru Wales to the U.S. many, many decades ago. First real view of Wales. Thanks.

[@guscarlson7021]

If I used a million words it wouldn't be enough to express my gratitude for sharing this previously unknown world with me. So I will just offer my most sincere thanks. ❤❤

[@jdoe7673]

Having watched you guys since almost the beginning this has been one of my favorites... Great Job...

[@geekazoid]

6:45-8:45 and the following sequence is hilarious. It's actually kinda fun to see you just being silly and normal and self conscious. This narrowboating series is terrific!

[@sheliad2821]

I love your ocean going videos....however, this narrowboating has been awesome!!!

[@seanjamescameron]

Loved this series - originally from Wales but in London for 20 years.

[@garyag45]

Very interesting, beautiful country scenes, thanks for taking us along 💐💐💐😎🦅👍🇺🇸

[@Bb14029]

Well, that was just as exciting as watching you both on the open seas! I have a friend in Wales and I hope to make it over someday. I think I need the tour boat. Thanks for sharing the journey!

[@gschwendinger]

A sincere thank you to you both Nikki and Jason for the pure joy and positivity you share with us. What you do is so appreciated and makes a difference in the lives of others. So much fun to watch and truly feel better after watching episodes like this. Have a great week! Thank you.

[@Wrong-Way-Round]

Hallo again guys, I' just loving the fact that you're having a fanastic time in GB, what with the relaxing 'speed', being caught up by running ducks and overtaken by lambs it just proves that this beats 'living in the fast lane' any day. Anyone that didn't have a smile on their face watching this video must be wierd.

[@AuntieSullivan]

Always a treat to have a vlog about a trip down the Llangollen. Thank you so much.

[@century2298]

You two are just loaded with that "childlike enthusiasm" ! A big contrast to David's calm narration cursing. 😆😁 Thanks for bringing us along.

[@daviddunster9305]

You both lead such an exciting life, I can't help but smile from ear to ear watching your adventures..And I thank you both.💞

[@jazziered142]

David is simply wonderful.

[@kcsunnyone]

I've loved watching your small boat adventure and had already gone to the King of the Canals channel last week. My daughter lives in Crowley and I would love to spend a few weeks doing exactly what you are doing. It's nearly as good as being there. Thank you!

[@anthonyromo8684]

Thanks Jason, thanks Nikki... for letting us come with you!

[@iankynaston-richards5239]

Beer hand pumps are technically called engines in UK too, but hardly anyone would refer to them as such unless they had experience in the trade. The beer engine was invented in 1691 by John Lofting, a dutch inventor. Using the term "tap" should refer to a beer cask on a trestle with a tap fitted to dispense the beer, but has become shorthand for any cask beer, however dispensed. The real sacrilege comes from dispensing beer with a pressurised CO2 system and such beverages should be avoided.

[@curmudgeon573]

Without doubt the best narrowboat video I have seen. You portrayed the English and Welsh countryside beautifully. And had fun doing it.

[@douglasrussell5098]

So amazing. Actually been a fan of David's for awhile. Often thought about doing the canals in Britan because of him and others that I've watched. Now, you both go and do it. So freaking envious! Looking forward to seeing guys sailing on the new boat! Stay safe.

[@AllisonMetcalfPalumbo]

Oh my! The cavorting lambs were ADORABLE!

[@maverickmyrtlebeach]

When I started sailing around Boston harbor & Cape Cod, I always wanted to explore these historic canals but life got in the way. Like UMA said "Never buy a couch" Thx guys you have a remarkable back story of your caring for loved ones and J has this uncanny way of shutting great shots and as always Wynns are a win of whimsical wisdom,,, J have you tried Photoshop CC with Generative Fill

[@thedude6688]

You guys are clever,humble and normal people.

[@Allen-by6ci]

Awesome job guys... that looked like a super fun distraction for you guys. Great pics and video as usual. The drone looks like it came in super handy. Love the channel as always.

[@danielragan6077]

I love you guys. You have so much fun "running to catch a train but, except for your walking and I don't know, it's not much of a jump" 😅 you find joy in everything. I love that.

[@eddierussell9369]

Awesome journey! Thanks for sharing!😊

[@lotusdolphin]

Oh my gosh. So exciting to watch you two. I love the idea of narrow boating being so in touch with nature. WaleS is absolutely stunning. Loved the two little lambs that were playing. So cute. You guys made it really interesting. Well you always do. Thank you so much for all your hard camera work and editing. You are appreciated.💜🫶🥰 🇺🇸

[@soraya4890]

It seems like you guys are having a lot of fun on the canals.. lovely vlog..beautiful scenery..

[@ianclarke8821]

You’re clearly having much more fun and excitement on the canal boat than your ocean catamarans plus it is affordable and never lonely. No rocks, no tides, no customs, no sickness, no stress. Easy food, beer, views, nature, sleep, peace and privacy when you need it too. Superb video, I really enjoyed watching you enjoy yourselves!

[@247kalimera]

Such amazing footage as always!! And I always love how you take a deep dive into the culture of the places you go.

[@maartentoors]

19:38 On behalf of all Cameras; Thank you for that save! You two aren't looking for awesomeness, she finds you. Love from Amsterdam.

Oh how cute the 2 baby lambs were playing/running together.

[@mikebartram6001]

Hi guys, the channel you are on prior to crossing the Leek Aqueduct (not bridge) is a relining project I worked on in the early 90's, the basin at the other end of the bridge is one of mine too, various relining projects projects between Leek and the Fron were mine too. Also the approach to the Fron iron aqueduct was aproject I worked on as was most of the basin on the other side plus on and off up the feeder canal to LLangollen. Fun fact, whilst installing joints at each end of the Fron I had to return to my office in a blzzard so walked across in the bottom of the trough. Nicely shot video. Mike B

[@kelleypitcher8754]

Just gotta say.... "thumb"NAILED IT! Hilarious, and loved it 😁 Sometimes you just need a funny photo

[@Squigglydodah]

I'm so eager to see your new boat! I can't imagine how hard the waiting must be for you guys😅

[@FirstMateSailor]

Thank you for taking us with you on this adventure. Your excitement is contagious ❤

[@larryb3534]

Another great video

[@narrowboatemerald3558]

Hi, We really enjoyed watching you guys on the UK canals 😅 good job, well done. The king of the canals vlog has given us a new Channel to follow 😃

[@stevenjohns7017]

When in Wales ( Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau) as a tourist you must try "Welsh Rarebit".

[@TwylaWorld]

Jason "I can't believe they let people do this on their own" OMG funniest/truest line ever! I'd be having a heart attack at every blind corner!! LOL You guys are the best!

[@patriotcultivator1604]

Ur channel is amazing. I went to Florida last week seen catamarans everywhere couldn't help but wonder if any of them were curiosity. Can't wait to see the new boat

[@genesmith4642]

Your enthusiasm was contagious and made it enjoyable to follow along. It's also good that you came up with doing this canal thing while you wait for the boat build.

[@kimthomas652]

Awesome camera and drone work. Really enjoyed this video.

[@mikemcauliffe4786]

You did it again! What I thought was going to be a boring non Sailing video, captured my heart and breath with a wonderful cinematography and great narrative! Another Wynn!

[@The1stKukuDrifter]

The black boat was The Wraith not The Wrath.

[@johnmaclellan2589]

You two are having the time of your life truly on of your most entertaining videos that I have ever seen produced the two of you. Makes me admire the both of you more than ever.

[@cindyfleer2248]

A lovely morning with the Wynns!😊

[@davefoster7770]

I went over that aqueduct as a kid 40 years ago. The valley was full of clouds and mist the sun was just rising. You couldn't see the bottom. It was a truly magical moment. I have done it three times in a narrowboat and once in a canoe to lean over the edge and look at the view, much to the dismay of my mother. It is a masterpiece of engineering and construction. I'm glad you got to see it. Twice!

[@lpettet1]

These past two shows have been absolutely fantastic. One of the best you’ve done.

[@trudymccann3671]

Caught David's VLOG yesterday, about you all and he coordinating the arrival, OJT, and his guidance for the first stint of your Journey. This is certainly a treat, not ever have I thought about this or known of the Long Boats in the UK and Wales. You have certainly educated us all about this amazing invention, engineering and continued success of a vertible Historic Treasure! Definitely an unusual journey of sweet patience and slow success. Those lambs were adorable; however, they were on the wrong side of the fence! That is why they were so active, Momma has the milk and they are flummoxed! Panic attack! Such a charming Spring adventure, I loved it! Thank you both for the cleverest water adventure yet!

[@0777sadie]

So. The term "gypsy" is most often a slur. Especially by non-Romani people. The proper term is often Roma or Romani. Something to think about maybe in the next video. 😅 Love the bridge action and blind curves! For something that moves so slowly, it's very gripping and I can see the pull of excitement!

[@kirkrobbins9090]

Ĵust about as eye opening excitement as you can have on a boat, without a sail! Thanks for taking us along!!

[@SirCharles12357]

Wow! Your editing is masterful! Lord only knows how long it took to combine and sort all the video into an enjoyable and beautiful journey! Those baby lambs!!!

[@SeaTreeWonder]

We absolutely LOVED seeing you two on a narrowboat adventure in Great Britain! We didn't want this narrowboat adventure to end yet... What a FUN way to experience the English countryside and be on the water at the same time. Being on a boat in water AND high up in the air must be so trippingly exhilarating, mind bending, and really memorable! Since seeing you two narrowboat, we have been watching more narrowboating adventure videos and know at some point we will have to "hire" a narrowboat. :-) Thanks for bringing us along!

[@mommat1306]

Your excitement and enthusiasm is charmingly contagious. This reminded me so much of those slow canal boat rides at Disney and other parks, yet it’s real and historic! So this is another thing to add to my Bucket List that I didn’t know I needed to do-so I am glad to experience it vicariously with you as it’s likely never gonna happen for me!

[@mrtelechi]

Wonderful, a beer 'engine'....pmsl... 😂🤣 It's a beer pump, or a hand pump. Love it!

I didn’t know this kind of trip existed. One of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. Goes on the bucket list.

[@kimberlyshalaby1134]

Still holding onto the past. So much to appreciate with history in that area. Was nice to meet your friend David. I have really enjoyed the history behind the longboats & canals, along with seeing some beautiful scenery. Loved the waddling ducks. Loved the frisky lambs & seeing the curious cows. What a great place to get over your fear of heights. Brave woman! Jason, if you thought the tourist behind you were watching you, wait 'til they find out you have a You Tube channel. I love you both! Enjoyed your adventure on the canal. Have a good week. That was precious how you both walked off in the end.

[@Tomm9y]

A lovely video, the Wynns style and humour condensed into canal life. Great footage of the landscape, tunnels, stunning aqueducts.

[@greglenoir7674]

Been away for a while and found this, still cute still relatable and always having fun. ❤

Soooo cool, including the color! Can't wait to see it finished and in the water!!

[@Daydreameruk]

Oh my gosh you two are super cute on a narrow boat. I’ve watched you for years, competent on your catamaran, on Curiosity, on borrowed boats. It’s an absolute breath of fresh air on this. I live very close to the Kennet and Avon canal. Thankyou for coming to England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 You’re welcome back anytime. 😊

[@markdavies146]

It was lovely to watch enjoying our canals ,we ride our bikes along that stretch fro m the aqueduct to Llangollen every Sunday so glad you enjoyed the journey .can't wait to watch you on the new cat ,and your sailing exploits keep up the great videos ,and thank you for the pleasure you bring to all your viewers .

[@imscanon]

Kara and Nate (travel vloggers) are there doing the same thing so I was wondering if you would collab with them. (assuming both are actually still there). I've enjoyed this so much seeing you two have such an excited energy about a new boating experience for you. We can feel the joy through the screen about how interesting narrowboating is to you. Indeed it definitely looks like a lot of fun.
