I Spend 24 Hours On The Norfolk Broads! In A Hire Boat

Gaby has never been a fan of boats or the Norfolk broads and never wanted to stay in one . I wanted to convince her to give it a try! ? Will she like it?

[@sterainey9259]

great work tim😊😊

[@PreservationEnthusiast]

It is not a kitchen, it is a galley. And not a bedroom, it's a cabin. Also the toilet is called a head. You should use the terms fore and aft and port and starboard when on the boat.

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

“A shower where you could quite comfortably fit two people in - one standing and one sitting down” 😂

[@angellomaltezo8291]

I was thinking exactly the same. Do'nt get me wrong Tim, I am an innocent man, but when you said, "one is standing on the shower and the other person is sitting" that instantly made me visualize how well that would work!!!! 😉

[@samnpoppythedog4416]

I thought that as well, in fact I'm sure that popped into most people's thoughts when Tim said " two people with one sitting down".

OH MY GOD, THAT IS MY MUMS OLD BOAT AT 28:26 I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIND IT FOR YEARS ALL OVER THE BROADS, I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!!! I can tell as I remember the H812 at the front and the tv at where it is. Same curtains same worktop on the galley same everything!!! That has to be it I can't remember what the make is. I showed this to my mum and she said that is it!!!!!!!! I don't even care that you insulted it, thank you so much for finding it, you've made my day!

Oh wow 😮

What are chances? How cool!

[@lisah.5559]

That's amazing ❤

[@BlokeInAnglia]

@@daveUK1066 Exactly! Its a traditional Broads boat, it has lots of space inside and it can go under low bridges even at low tide. The one Tim got was very cool but I found it quite small inside. Aslo it's very high. But it does look amazing I cant lie.

This could almost be a remake of the infamous episode of Keeping Up Appearances 🤣

[@1994Edgie]

Wow this video really got to me. Me and my mum and dad always used to holiday on The Broads when I was a kid (now 30). We had an absolute blast on the boats we hired. Unfortunately, my mum passed away in February unexpectedly. Thank you so much for making this video Tim, means a lot to me 💙

[@antm2296]

Very sorry for your loss mate I’m 31 lost my mum 3 years ago. Very tough losing a parent so young. But I’m very glad you have fantastic memories like that to look back on as I do myself. Sincere condolences

[@legacy1830]

I remember a hire boat cautiously going under a bridge on the Thames and about 15 minutes later returning under the same bridge with complete confidence! It destroyed the top of the cabin as in the intervening time they had opened a weir further upstream causing the water to rise 😂

[@eveoakley6270]

We did this in 1989 when our daughter was two. My husbands brother and his family live in Brundall, so it gave us an opportunity to meet up with them. We did it again in 1992. It was brilliant and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

[@kims.9488]

Love to see your positive attitudes and how you and Gabby work so well as a team

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Thank you

[@greggseiter1412]

Loved this video. Gaby’s comment about approaching the bridge of “Let’s just risk it !” Really cracked me up Such a fun video 😊

[@petersmith4659]

No mention of the height board back towards the Ferry or just before the Railway Bridge on the right!

[@user-ju6ud4go6b]

Gaby did well steering the boat and looked as if she enjoyed being Captain. The boat was light and spacious too. Pity about the weather but on a hot sunny day it would be very nice.

[@CloeCorpse]

Tim One of my favourite things about your channel is you do a VARIETY of travel (air, train, boat) plus a variety of budget (from Jet2 to First Class) - never be tempted to just only do 'instagrammy/influency' boring high class annoying stuff - your USP is that we never know what we're gonna get, and you are down to earth - and also brutally honest especially when theres dirty or tired hotels!😂😂😂👌👌👌👌✅✅✅✅

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Appreciate that 💯 thank you

[@robertstubbs8062]

Hi Tim, Gabby and Thumbs. The best behaved little fella on the planet. I've been following you for a couple of years now. I was in Gibraltar the same time that you were doing a vlog there. It was great seeing you all going afloat. As an old sea dog myself you'll be pleased to hear that I was calling out instructions. It's not as easy as people might think. Even more so when the weather does its thing. You all did very well and would guess that you may have found some of the stress that accompanies going afloat. No quite as relaxing as the Sunborn. You never know, you might get the bug. Keep up the good work, both of you. Your channel and programmes are most enjoyable and top class .

[@anjou6497]

Gabby's captainship was impressive...🎉😂

[@Galloping-Grandma]

What an absolutely brilliant episode, I was wishing it was longer! I even ducked when you went under the bridge 🤦‍♀️😂

I did too... involuntary reaction, but it is natural.

this reminds me of that Alan Partridge episode where he does the adverts for boats in Norfolk. AHAAAAA

[@RoamingRobinToronto]

That looks so relaxing, even with the wind. I actually thought that you both were just getting on, staying and not moving on so I am quite impressed with how well you both handled the boat--great job! And little Casper is growing up so fast:)

[@WalkWithMeTim]

I know so fast

[@castlequay2327]

when we took our boating holiday on tbe Broads we were advised to start far away from the sea to minimise tidal impact. we had such a relaxing break that our friends from France ( who came with us) bought a house on a marina and a sailng boat afterwards So lovely to see the scenery floating past and all the spring baby ducks.

[@sundance2005]

Love this video, what a great family adventure. What treasure the UK has with all their water ways. A double mooring is when you tie to the posts (moorings) and then a second boat moors to you on the side of your boat.

[@natehawkshaw1048]

I just binged watched 50 hours of your content tim and loved every minute of it.. I only come across your channel 4 days ago and I'm hooked! I love how your so down to earth "even staying in top end hotels.. gonna watch this episode now.. keep doing what your doing you've got my like all the way.. watching from swansea wales.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Wow, thank you!

[@djjefferz]

Absolutely love the broads. I last went in Oct 2022 and we took a wrong turn in Great Yarmouth, we nearly went into the North Sea... lol. Also I noticed you said 2 people. However, your boat could have up to 4. as the couch folds into a double. Double moorings mean boats can moor up next to you. Can't wait to go again.

[@annkretzschmar5085]

We did that many years ago. All the sailors on the ships in Yarmouth harbour waved us back - thankfully!!!

[@hd2000]

A good adventure! Definitely stressful at times but a great memory and something different to enjoy and one to consider in the future. Thanks for taking us with you!

[@nicwebber5343]

When I was a nipper, in the 70s, my Dad used to send for the Hoseasons boating brochure. We'd chose a boat and a route and then never, ever go. My Dad got queasy looking at a puddle

[@lindalyons6372]

One of the best of your videos. Loved it with Gabby and Casper. We are a boating family and live in Plymouth Massachusetts. Two of my sons own boats. One is 32 feet and the other 42 feet. All the amenities of home.

Fun video this time. Way to go Gaby steering the boat along like a professional! We have been out for day trips on the Broads many times but never overnighters. Bless Casper's heart joining in with it all too. Love these type of family videos Tim. Look forward to Gaby's take on it all! x J x

[@giz1847]

I follow a few couples that live on narrow boats and travel the canals of the UK. Fascinating way of life.

[@HYUKLDER1]

40 foot boats are more comfortable for families to hire for a week or fortnight because there is more space and cabins to spread out. You can also hire a rowing/sail boat to tow and older children can play with when moored up.

[@g0jnh]

It must be some 40+ yrs since I hired a boat on the Broads and had the best time of my life even though I later owned a small cruiser on the Bridgewater Canal. On the boat the kitchen is call the Galley, the bedroom is called a Cabin containg a berth, when you park the boat Moor on a Mooring.

[@rickeeeddleman5614]

This just might be your best one. Nice to see you'all out of your comfort zone! What an adventure! You did wonderfully!!! TEAMWORK!!!!!

I think it's mainly young families. Anyway au-revoir till your next trip.

[@diannehardwick950]

Well, that was a nice trial run for your first holiday in a boat. You can’t do anything to control the weather but in terms of sleeping arrangements you will know what kind of boat to high next time. Very well done.

[@margopaton3240]

Some of those comments aren't very nice. Someone should delete them. I like when you say you are shocked, its just a bit of fun. It was a very enjoyable, different, entertaining video. It was funny and cheerful. And a great experience and memory to have. You were both amazing and Casper is so cute and well behaved😊

[@garrymartin6474]

Personally I love it when there is wind and waves and you can hear the water lapping against the hull and the mooring ropes creaking its what being on a boat is all about ! Never got a mooring at that pub in season, a lovely video 👍🏻

[@AliBees]

We hired a boat on the Broads about 20 odd years ago now for a few days. I just remember it getting really nail biting towards Great Yarmouth when the fog came in quick, a load of windmills and visiting a donkey sanctuary. Good times

[@barrycoppock]

Minimal List/Foxes Afloat/Cruising the Cut, eat your hearts out! One of the great aspects of boating is seeing the views which you would not see from the road/land side. Importantly, despite the adverse conditions, you all had great fun, which is what it is all about. (Looking forward to BTS from Gaby. Perhaps you may consider also putting her video on your channel which would enable those critics to actually see what is involved in producing your, in their view, holiday videos!)

[@mariecasasnovas5945]

I was holding my breath as you approached that bridge. Gabby just cool as a cucumber you go girl 😅. And Caspar just as sweet as always. Love the family vlogs.

Gaby can obviously hear the words 'wine' and 'complimentary' from 5 miles away (like a shark can smell blood!) 😀

[@benmc919]

WOW! What can I say but that was absolutely brilliant Tim. The Norfolk Broads is stunning and I definitely have to visit someday. (Maybe hire a boat out too) The boat really did look impressive and very modern too. Obviously despite the extremely windy conditions you all still had a fantastic time which is what it is all about especially seeing Casper enjoying himself. I had a feeling Gaby would actually enjoy the boating trip and I am looking forward to seeing the BTS of the whole trip. Love these longer videos especially with the family and thanks for sharing with us. One of my favourites now. And the highlight was Tim and his bow thrusters…..😂👍🏻

[@richardsonsboats]

Fantastic video Tim! We're glad to see you Gaby and Casper had a lovely (maybe a little bit windy) trip on the Norfolk Broads!

[@ARFilms2]

Well done, Tim and Gabby, you both did an amazing job of driving the boat and mooring up. Anne and I have been on lots of Boating Holidays over the years, and each time have loved the experience of this type of holiday. Brydon Water is difficult at the best of times, but in the windy conditions, you handle the boat really well. We love your Channel,Tim, and always look forward to the newest video of yours. Keep up the good work of your fab videos, always entertaining and informative.....Rob
