The Biggest Boat Show In The UK!! - Episode 21

[@mitchellbennis9236]

What a wide variety of interiors to look at, from simple to posh. Always nice to check out other styles and gather some inspiration for your own style. You have an empty pallet to start with and skies the limit , plus a few extra quid wouldn’t hurt, Cheers.

[@DuoVagari]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@haze8223]

I think you should think about sliding doors that slide into the wall to divide areas!! Love the boat so far can’t wait to see more!!

[@billharris6886]

Chris and Priscilla, thanks for another interesting video! That boat show was quite the experience; visual overload for sure! These boat shows are interesting from the standpoint of creative ideas being unleashed in a "money no object" and not necessarily practical environment. However, it does provide a lot of useful ideas for your boat build. After seeing the ideas you like best, it might be good to go back and take detailed snapshots of your favorites.

[@DuoVagari]

Glad you enjoyed it Bill, We definitely learnt a lot and have all the inspiration we were seeking. We looking forward to pushing ahead now with the build :)

[@billharris6886]

@@DuoVagari Sounds Great, full speed ahead (at 4 MPH)!

[@AndrewShort-bh6hm]

Enjoyed your video, Good luck with your boat restoration. Dave and Elaine.

[@DuoVagari]

Many thanks!

[@Richard.357]

Brilliant. I'm happy to see you're getting ideas. Not a boater myself but a dreamer of owning one. Surely, those show boats never get used. They aren't lived in. Just for show. Also, yes, I know it isn't to scale. But I have a seiko solar powered watch that uses any light source to charge. Even a torch will charge it. You would think that these all electric vessel companies would have come up with this technology. Looking forward to your next episode.

[@DuoVagari]

Thanks Richard, yes indeed they all look too perfect inside definitely not lived in yet :)

[@mareehammond6960]

Love the tee shirt…watching your channel from New Zealand with interest

[@DuoVagari]

Cheers 🍺

[@JohnLee-fx6pz]

Love the shirt Chris. Cheers from NZ.

[@DuoVagari]

Awesome! Thank you! 😎

Hi my two favourite people, I to went to a boat show some time ago and that is when I got the bug to have a barge but I had a very bad accident so that was the end of that, That is y I love your videos so much I look forward to seeing everyone of them thank you very much for that, You both take care of yourself and stay safe.⛴️⛴️🛠️🛠️⭐️👍❤️🌹

[@DuoVagari]

Thank you Fred we appreciate you keeping us going with your kind words! Hope you enjoy the upcoming progress videos we going to really get stuck in 🙂

[@sparky687]

If you can run your dc on 24V or better still 48V. The higher voltage helps with volt drop and if you do get a fault the higher voltage is like higher pressure so it actually drives the fault so you get definitive failure. That way it is easier to find and rectify.

[@anthoneyking6572]

OMG al them Awesome Boats it sure gave you so many Choices on how you would like your one still a Very Long Road to go but every part you do gets it Closer to your Dream Great Vlog Thanks

[@DuoVagari]

Thanks Anthony, yes indeed there were so many awesome boats !! We now have so much inspiration just got to get to it now and get stuck in 🙂

[@Santafefrank]

Thanks 😊

[@Goserider]

I like going to shows like that!

[@WarthogChief]

Duo Vagari, concerning LiFePO4 batteries, have you given any thought to use server rack batteries. 5Kwh Eg4 is (USD $1150-$1350). There racks for either 3 or 6 batteries available. I have seen a 30 Kwh setup for under $7k USD. Enjoying your content. 😊😊😊

[@DuoVagari]

Thanks for the advice we hadn't considered these will definitely look into server rack batteries

[@WarthogChief]

@@DuoVagari Will Prowse in the USA, on KZbin, is an excellent source if information concerning solar/battery systems 12v, 24v, 48v. He also tests many batteries from different companies. Good luck on all your endeavors. 🧡🤩

[@fernandolrocha]

Very beautiful boats. But before making a decision, I would visit motor home companies as the principle is the same.

[@DuoVagari]

Thanks that's a very good idea ☺️

[@edwardseaborne4183]

It came out now now!!! 😂😂😂

[@stewartgorley2523]

You should go with pocket doors in your boat

[@bishopkinlyside8477]

Hi guys, I just love narrow boat here in Australia. Unfortunately we do not have any but I must say having a diesel on board would be the way I would go. I watched a few programs with electric motors and sometimes they seem to have a lot of issues. Specially in England with the cloudy days and they have to have a diesel generator, which I think would defeat the purpose, especially with the new diesel motors they have today anyway that’s only my opinion that probably does not mean for much from Australia on the big island

[@DuoVagari]

We tend to agree with you the electric is just not there yet to justify the expense

[@grahamdorey3244]

I have a houseboat on the Murray, but with the flow and wind age, electric would not work yet. Can get plenty of solar, but motors are not yet big enough for the price. Electric on a canal boat is worth it even with a diesel, as they spend a lot of time idling in locks and that is eliminated. Also depends how much you are moving all the time. If you are a CC only moving for a few hours every few days it would be very efficient.

[@foghornleghornish]

Has the battery life been resolved? One reason Tesla is not doing well is the replacement cost and frequency. It's an interesting spreadsheet to compile over 7-10 years. Love the work you're doing on the boat.

[@ron7447]

Good looking boats. Wish I had one, but being in the states could be expensive to get. Take care❤

[@DuoVagari]

Thanks Rob you'll have to come over the pond and come for a cruise with us

[@ron7447]

@@DuoVagari That would be a bucket list come true. First saw a narrow boat video a couple years ago,and was hooked . Take care.

[@mrr8697]

Nice vid but can you turn down the music volume in the background it competing with the video to much

[@guntherst.4143]

Clearly Wow. But seeing the winner boat and trying to translate to pounds invested

[@normanboyes4983]

That was a very informative and interesting video - well apart from the promotion for the scam product AG1 - have you no shame?

[@PLUMGRUBBY.]

Soften the music

[@mindyedwards2699]

you can always turn the volume down 😂😂

[@michaelterhune40]

Was this a restoration project like yours? Or was this a new boat?

[@DuoVagari]

This is a new boat but some have been fitted out by private people

[@Lee_Proffit]

Did you have a stand at the show ? Saw the neck IDs

[@DuoVagari]

No but we were invited and were lucky enough to meet up with some people

[@Lee_Proffit]

@@DuoVagari Ah, OK. I thought that you might have started a boat building company 🙂

Have you guys run into Ben and Emily from that other boat Channel

[@DuoVagari]

Not yet hopefully soon

[@BarrieHarmsworth]

I am sure you meant the biggest canal boat show in the UK. Plainly you must have two basins, one for you lot and one for the dog.

[@geraldwilde1120]

The show was expensive not go again

[@cbrown9555]

Back to reality: Before you plan anything, get your bottom inspected, sandblasted and painted by professionals……..

[@ANIRATACba]

They don't care about that, amateur people. Many people buy boats but don't really understand the meaning about survey the hull than when they realise the bad purchase is already late and expensive

[@brandoneldridge2626]

That has all been done, a number of episodes ago.

[@craigshrimpton5765]

That came out the wrong way.

[@cbrown9555]

@@brandoneldridge2626 wrong, my friend……. 1. They pressure washed the barge, not sand blasted…. 2. Grey primer is not red oxide primer…. 3. They did not apply anti-fowling below the water line… 4. Over plating traps rust…… 5. Grinding doesn’t remove all the rust… 6. I saw no professional survey… 7. Paint and primer are only cosmetic ….. See Brandon, you learned something today. !!!!!!!

[@highlorddarkstar]

⁠@@cbrown9555they have cathodic protection, and red oxide isn’t used by any of the narrow boat owners I’ve seen, they use epoxy or tar based coating. This is a freshwater vessel after all. Anti fouling May not be allowed due to environmental concerns?

[@Madiba100]

Are we going to see some boat work or is it only visiting shows and advertising expensive power banks? Disapointed again. I see some rather rude comments about surveys and blasting / painting, have you looked into this properly?

[@Judo-xq1le]

Кто тоже с тик тока?

[@j.taylor9983]

like watching yours normally although as I am deaf and use the CC captions a lot. not much fun when the cc's are in chinese or whatever. not english so a real switch off.☹

[@DuoVagari]

Hi the captions are in multiple languages you will just need to select English if you pause the video you will see captions tab

[@MarkKoekenbakker]

Nice video! Little pity of the guy that tries to show off with his 8.4 cider... Such cocky behavior is not necessary.

[@peterchapman3740]

Me i dont think you need all that posh shit two sinks bollocks ,bath and sep shower ,bollocks ,good place to sleep ,storage decent kitchen ,you live on the boat not in it ,pratical not a show boat

[@DuoVagari]

We agree, but it was nice to get some good ideas

[@judewilliams9345]

Think that was the most boring video so far 😮😊

[@enniscorthyboy]

Boat vloggers come and go, you won’t last long!!

Thanks challenge accepted 😀😀
