Great boat handling skills, and that engine is the perfect soundtrack!

[@NarrowboatPreciousJet]

Thank you, and your right the engine sounds just amazing 😊👍🏼

[@PabloSulty]

Loved sailing along with you both on this trip!

[@NarrowboatPreciousJet]

Thanks Pablo, I was amazing taking the boat on the river! It was so clear you could see fish 6 foot under water 😊😊👍🏼

[@NarrowboatWill]

Sounds beautiful Steve. I didn't know you turn left out of Stratford. You love that horn. Ha ha

[@NarrowboatPreciousJet]

Yes turning left upstream is great, you can go further than I did but it warns that it’s shallow so didn’t want to risk going further 😊 can’t beat having a good horn 😂😂🤣

[@tinkeringwithmark1186]

After all the work. I am glad that you are traveling. It must feel good!

[@NarrowboatPreciousJet]

It was amazing being on the river!! I thought it would be like the canal but if felt so different, the boat just seemed to handle so much better! And also the river was so clear you could see all the fish and bottom of the river bed 😊😊👍🏼

Thank you Keith, we really did enjoy being on the river 😊👍🏼

[@mickkoi1]

Glad you managed to do it,was looking forward to doing it with you but no one knew what happened was going to happen so maybe next year

[@ruaidhrikathygill8833]

Nice cruise Steve! 🙏😊🤗 Kathy

[@NarrowboatPreciousJet]

Thank you Kathy, being on the river was amazing, felt so much different to the canals and the water was so clear you could see loads of fish 😊😊👍🏼

@@NarrowboatPreciousJet Sounds very idyllic! Enjoy.

excellent

[@NarrowboatPreciousJet]

Thank you 😊

[@peterclarkson7317]

Glad you went left first, always wondered what was down there. Love the Avon, you will have to do the whole length at some point. We moored on the same pontoon at Bidford, except there was someone on it at the time so had to reverse onto the end roughly 90deg to the way you were, with half the boat stuck out into the river. After all the hard work I'm glad you are getting more than just a couple of weeks out.

[@NarrowboatPreciousJet]

Thanks Pete, I would of loved to go all the way down to Gloucester but I just didn’t have the time. Next year I’m taking 6 months off work and going to really enjoy it! When are you guys due back at the wharf??

[@peterclarkson7317]

@@NarrowboatPreciousJet probably around about early next month.

[@NarrowboatPreciousJet]

@@peterclarkson7317 I’m probably going to be a similar time then, I’m in no rush to get back and I’m only moving now and then for a couple of hours at a time 👍🏼😊😊

Nice vlog but I would like more commentary and banter between you and Lady PJ

[@NarrowboatPreciousJet]

We will have to see what we can do 😊😊 I would like to start doing more voice overs on my videos 😊👍🏼

[@ruaidhrikathygill8833]

@@NarrowboatPreciousJet I love listening to the banter, but unless both are wearing mics, o have found where the banter gets lost, especially if the camera is facing the bow and you are depending on the camera/phone mic. I like a good voiceover personally. Thanks Steve. 🙏😊🤗 Kathy
