BOAT TOUR | Towpath Jungle and a Canal side CHIP FEAST [Ep 112]

I meet a lovely couple who have just had a new Narrowboat built by Bourne Boat Builders and they invite me inside for a full BOAT TOUR. My reconditioned starter motor gets fitted to my old Lister so I am now able to continue my adventures. So I head off down one Canal Lock to the lovely quaint English Village of Acton Trussell to meet up with friends and we cook dinner on the towpath in a dutch oven - Chips Yum Yum!

Thank you so much for watching. If you are new here, I'm Heidi and I live aboard my Narrowboat The Rum Wench and travel the UK's Canals in search of Adventure. After selling my house to experience an alternative lifestyle I bought a canal boat and a camper van which as a solo female who loves to travel, gives me the best of both worlds. I have recently got myself a new addition to the crew, a fabulous companion - my little rescue dog Bonny who is an absolute joy. I also work full time off grid from my tiny home and trade at canal festivals as The Pirate Boat

Little Bonnie is fascinated by all the swans , ducks etc , she may have changed your life but you have transformed hers as well I bet she can't believe what's happened, I hope your together for many years to come . By the way if there's any of those chips going spare save us a few will ya 😁😁😁 . Safe cruising.

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Thanks Bruce she is absolutely gorgeous ❤️🐶

[@theemporersnewclothes]

Seems like you and Bonny are getting the measure of each other 🐾🐾 good on you for giving her a forever home ❗

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

She is absolutely wonderful ❤️🏴‍☠️

Wish we could enjoy times like this ,enjoy each day as it comes ,all the best viking,rum drinking wench.see you in South Yorkshire.

[@karenjaques3937]

Wow! Bonnie and Heidi make the Pirate life come alive! A trip to the Vet and a visit with Mom and Dad makes a welcome above. Now it's a real life once again. Live, Laugh and Love and plenty of Rum Fellows makes All Me Hearties come back to life! Have a wonderful time. Best wishes from a water drinking pirate stuck in the shade of the desert heat with Arizona cattlem😊

[@karenjaques3937]

It's so hot and dry on this ship I can't even wet the lips or dehydration takes over! 😂😂😂❤😮

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Aww thank you me hearty 😃🏴‍☠️

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

😂😂 you got to keep them lips moist! 🏴‍☠️

[@TeeMac68]

Heidi, I'm so excited....I bought my first narrowboat yesterday- on my birthday too!! All being good with the survey I could be on her in 2-3 weeks!!! Watching you as a solo female cc-er inspired me to go for my dream so thank you. I must get my dog Molly to watch this video to learn from Bonnie how to behave and not to jump into the canal every time she sees a duck or Swan! Bloody nightmare! 😆 Hope youre having a beautiful evening 😍 T 🙏

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Oh wow, Happy Birthday and congratulations on your new life chapter … I hope the survey goes well 😄❤️🏴‍☠️ whooop hopefully see you on the canals very soon 😄

[@vickieragle4130]

Bonnie acts like she is thankful to be in "boat/towpath" heaven with her perfect lifetime pal. Congrats on your new travel mate and CHEERS!❤

[@p-annie-j]

Hahaha 😂just loved the towpath jungle hike…. Here’s one you might like Bonny and Heidi battle the tall bush It’s a good job they weren’t in a rush Stung by nettles, reeds that whip Not much fun when they’re up to the nips And after all that back they come Of course, me heartys…to get home for a rum From Pat x

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Brilliant 😂😂😂

[@TWTexasA1]

I’m so pleased to see you’ve gotten the starter fixed. I was fearing you’d get stranded somewhere eventually. And 240 pounds to have someone like that fella rebuild a starter motor is much better than buying a new or rebuilt starter from a store..which you probably can’t find one for that motor anyhow..hopefully you’ll be good to go for years to come…👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@brodie2711]

Thanks for the early heads-up on this week's smashing video. Bonny really is coming along a treat, she's lucky to have an owner who cares for her and is patient with her. All the best to both of you. Stephen ❤

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Aww thanks Stephen, she is gorgeous 😄

[@diannejohnson3089]

Bonny is settling in so well. You haven't stopped smiling since she arrived it's so good to see. I remember when we got our first rescue dog Molly when my son was about 7yrs old. He told us she was going on holiday because the vet said she was going to Spain. 😂I chose not to explain that one and said I'm sure she will enjoy it.

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

😂😂 brilliant 🏴‍☠️

She really is coming on, she is amazing 😄

[@CraigMaddux-w5o]

So glad Bonny is recovering and healing so quickly. Your Starter is all repaired but you still need to keep your "spare Key" (the hammer). I was not able to watch last week and I was going through "Heidi withdrawal" couldn't wait to turn on the and watch today. You are wonderful! Thanks for always making my day.

Got to this one a bit late, Bonny is a delight to watch, a few days after you posted this I had to put my Chica down, after 16 years the cancer and chronic ear infections were just too much, she's not in pain anymore may you have many joyful years with Bonny 😪😋 fond memories

Awww I’m so sorry xxx

[@JD987abc]

I love your channel. Beautiful content. Congratulations on the engine rebuild. Sounds reasonably priced compared to the states. Your pup Bonnie is a beauty. I too have a rescue female frenchie named Gigi. They are so grateful and loving. Gigi was used as a breeder and discarded. Now she’s the queen of the house. Same color as Bonnie. All best. Joe and Gigi, Cape May.

Glad you are mobile again. Whenever something needs fixing on my old Rav car it costs but I know that I don't have to worry about that again. I get told that it would be better to get another car but I know what has been done on mine so know where it's at. Enjoy your gorgeous wee girl, she really is enjoying being with you. Take care as always =-)

Thanks Lorraine, yes it’s better to fix what you have ❤️

Absolutely loved this one ... seeing you and Bonny together is just a pleasure. Obviously meant to be 🥰

[@garyroth2764]

Great video Heidi. Alfie is a really nice boat but hardly a pirate ship so just hang in there with the Rum Wench. It's definitely more becoming of a pirate queen. Besides with all that storage you would never know where you last stowed the rum. All in all I agree with the other comments. This is a noteworthy addition to canal life, especially the triple fried chips.YUM!!

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Thanks so much 😊

[@ms_chigger]

There was a pirate named Heidi. She kept her boat so very tidy. She would share her rum with any ole bum. She steered her boat to keep it a float so Bonnie was always kept dry.

[@ellencaswick3131]

So glad you and Bonny found each other. She is definitely coming along with her training. I could not be happier for the both of you. Also happy for Bonny’s Grandparents. You can see how happy they are with her❤️🏴‍☠️

Aww they love her to bits 😃🏴‍☠️❤️

Great video. Ya gotta love Bonnie, what a sweetheart. I do hope you win the lottery, but do you really want a new fancy boat? You really have a great life. Thank you for sharing. The new starter sounds really good . I drink a rum to you and Bonnie; cheers!

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Oh I really do want a fancy new one … it will be better for hosting friends and family and not as much hard work as mine is very deep drafted which is difficult as a solo boater 😄🏴‍☠️

[@markseibert6369]

Heidi on the Rum Wench, with old engine Lister, it had a bad starter, but Steven has fixed her. Got bearings and Bendix and new "bushes" too, while Bonny has learned things and seen cattle too!

[@jamesmaxwell1922]

Another great vlog, and I am glad to see that you are training Bonny (and that she is responding well). A misbehaving dog can spoil everybody's day!

[@Debba521]

The training looks like it's going really well! Bonny is such a sweet pretty girl! I can well believe she's a life changer. Inspiring me to finally get another pup as well. Been two years since my girl Stella passed.

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Oh do it - Bonny has brought so much joy to my life ❤️🏴‍☠️

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

Hey there, So good to catch up. You’re both looking well 🙂 it was so nice seeing Bonny with your parents - especially when your dad had the frisbee - she can’t half jump!! And then later trying to eat Rosie 🤣 A really hilarious game I used to play with my jack russel that you and Bonny might enjoy is this - you get a puppet, I had a rabbit puppet, and I’d creep it towards Reggie and he would go absolutely nuts, loving it. It was such a laugh. It also helped with our recall training - the toy became the reward ❤ (before anyone comes at me for encouraging animal cruelty IT WAS A PUPPET 😂and I never ever had him off the lead in rural areas where small furry animals might reside - ok? Great 👍🏼) I have one quick question re the video - you said “I love the name of your boat” and then “don’t be rude” as you went past it, but I didn’t ever see the boats name....what was it? 🤣🤣 I’ll go back now (as I always do anyway) and rewatch the video, just in case I’m going senile and I missed it - sorry in advance if I did 😂 All the best to you and Bonny and to your lovely mum and dad too. See you next week. eve 🙂🐿🌈❤️ P.s so good that she didn’t have any separation anxiety hey. Oh and what a brilliant ditty by Angela this week 🤣

[@TheNarrowboatPirate]

Ahoy Eve, the boat was called ‘my fanwy’ i love it as it’s a little rude 😂 and I’m amused by the simple things 😂 Bonny is really coming along, I’ll look out for a puppet 😂😂 thanks for watching and commenting, it means the world 😄🏴‍☠️❤️

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

Ha ha thanks for letting me know Heidi, that IS a funny name, and clever - I too am amused by things like this lol. Catch up with you both next week, take care and enjoy the sunshine ☀️ xöx P.s I was pausing and zooming and rewinding ha ha just trying to work out the name ha ha ❤

Great vlog lots to see enjoy going round inside the boats great when you are included Bonny is doing well you both seem to be happy with each other and that is great. your Lister is great to hear i drove lorry in England before i came to USA and we had a lister to raise the trailer up to unload so it is music to my ears. I love your sense of humor always waiting to see your vlogs Stay safe and look after Bonney she is just what you needed and you sound extra happy now you have her with you.

Great to see Bonnie is responding to the training regime. Well done on your persistence. Have you taught her on 'down'? One word that can be a life saver to get a dog to drop on the floor regardless of what the dog is doing. It's a hard command to teach but well worth the effort.

Glad to see Bonny the Doggy back in form. The penny has finally dropped on the recall!! It is all about perseverance. Now that Bonny is trained, we must set about training her new Mummy!! Lovely video Heidi - Go careful with that new starter, considering the work done, it is virtually new again, and that was a reasonable price to pay for such a "rarity"... the starter that is..... not your most helpful technician! Keep her chugging!! Best wishes John x

[@stephaniebotfield7188]

She’s doing you proud Girly doing you proud that Baby Bonnie. Your a lucky lady adopting her. She so loves you or she wouldn’t have learnt recall so quickly. You’re doing her proud too. I’ve rescued dogs for over 40 years now and ended up with 7 once, ranging from a chihuahua to a Great Dane ridgeback cross. I was a lucky lady as you are too. I’m down to one of the original 7 but I’ve recently rescued a pug, not too short nosed ( kennel club are trying to stop that in the breed ) she’s adorable. Finn is 14 nearly 15 but still fit. Well rum wench keep up the good work and I think I’ll look up your badges. Cheers for now. Keep up the training for Bonnie. 😉😉😉😉😉
