Many thanks for your information, (my husband James is now working out the exchange rate) we just enjoy your vlog and appreciate the time,sharing your life on board with us all🙏✝️🙏🇨🇦
You are fast becoming my favorite narrowboat vlogger! So fun to watch you Rozzie, Rob & Ralph. First will always be David, Cruising the Cut - he was the first vlogger I got hooked on. I was so sad when he quit cruising the canals. And the inside of your narrowboat is so beautiful.
What a surprise to hear my name ! Thank- you. It was my pleasure to donate to your charity run. I admire your fortitude. Greetings from Pennsylvania ! I have become so addicted to the Narrowboat Vlogs I follow that I am planning to rent a cottage on the canal in Blisworth in the late summer or Fall. Good opportunity to see friends from the days I lived in Milton Keynes. Look forward to your Vlogs
I am pleased you enjoy living on your boat, no boat is perfect there is always things we would like to be different. We have lived in a narrowboat almost 32 years we are marina based but do go out cruising are now in our second boat both being seconhand. We have followed your channel from day one keep up the good work thank you
That's not bad. We pay about 6000 euros per year just for mooring for a 42ft. Vessel here in Spain 🇪🇸. But we sit in warmer weather and have a lot of 🌞 sunshine. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for posting this vlog. So interesting to see everyone else’s costs as I’m due to move onboard my boat in the next 2 months or so. I am going all electric so won’t have gas or coal as I’m having diesel fire too so can’t wait to see what my costs will be. 👍
Thank you so much for doing a more up-to-date costings video , I have seen other videos but they were years old and theirs not that many newer videos but it's really handy since I'll be selling my house next year to buy a boat and I also understand the crt are putting the licensed up aswell
@@thenarrowboatgoodlifewill do , I'd imagine this year's cost will be higher and next year's costs will be considerably higher , it seems to be the way of the world at the moment sadly
Some of these figure are similar to mine but I use Diesel not wood costing me around £140 per month to fill the diesel tank that's having the wabasto running for the last six months gas one 13 kg bottle lasted us 6 months we have been in the marina since last October with the cost of the diesel there was £18 included in the diesel price for the pump out toilet once a month .
Useful, thanks. I've watched many of these, most which will allow something for food/travel/clothing/health/incidentals, and they seem to range from 8K up to 14K. Yours is cheaper but again, you're not including other normal living costs.
Great vlog guys interesting what you spent money on. We are not continuous cruisers and spend a lot on marina fees. On your Internet I've got an EE prepaid card it was 240 for 24 months
Honestly, even if you spent £6,000 a year (£500 of which is a savings against future costs), that is so small against the basic costs of a house. Just property tax and insurance plus utilities on our house are about $1,000 a month, never mind the mortgage and repairs and everything else. It seems super reasonable!
Love the videos Guys. Especially your boat. May I ask. How often do you empty your toilet tank? I don’t own a boat as yet. But we’re interested in the lifestyle. Steve & Julia. Keep them coming. Best wishes to you both.
I'm sure you must have mentioned it before, but what is it you both do for income? We'd love to see more of your precious (not allowed on the sofa) pup 🐶🐾💕
hi guys - love to watch your adventures. we are excitedly awaiting our new 60' build completed in a couple of months, so making arrangements. Really useful to see your costs, as we imagine our CC lifestyle to be very similar ;o) - - can i ask about the yearly quote you gave of £215 for Insurance (as something we need to sort out); who is that with, and full cover ?- thanks ... keeping blogging
Thank you! Our insurers are Craft insure. It’s a little extra this year as we’ve got more contents cover and added some itemised belongings. Still very good value though 👍🏼
We have a semi-trad boat and definitely don't have 2 doors to the outside. We're you thinking about a trad stern where you have doors either side of the engine room?
Thanks for watching. It’s hard to measure but We buy less than 1ltr diesel per hour of of engine running. It would depend if we are charging the batteries by having the engine on or moving. So blended I think it’s about 3/4 litres per hour. 🍻👍🏻
It’s not cheap to keep a boat going, if you want to live a comfortable life. Even if you take out the costs for next year. However if you enjoy it then it’s worth it. 😊
Hi, I think you’re asking why we’ve planned for blacking to be done after 2 years and not 4, which is the expected time with 2pac. If so we just want to over commit on our budget. The sides do get a little bashed as we move so much and it’s possible that we may want/need to have it done sooner than the 4years. Hope that answers. Thanks for watching. 👍🏻🍻
