Hey everyone! I have just filmed a year update video with Jordan on his boat which will be live on my channel Friday Oct 28th 2022 6pm!! So make sure you tune in … some really interesting insights 😃 Thanks so much for watching everybody
My mate and his partner have got a narrow boat and its moored in a Marina , and he sold his house and since getting the boat his health has improved ( they wanted him to take insulin for his diabetes since getting the boat , his diabetes has subsided.) He's walking more and he is happy. Hope your friend is as happy as my mate and enjoys his new adventure xx
Wow!!! That’s so interesting 🤔 they do say stress can be a major factor in illnesses like that x isn’t it wonderful what a big of peace and relaxation can achieve! Thanks for watching Derek
Hi Kerry - that was so so interesting - so pleased for Jordan, what a life change. I have spent a couple of weeks on a narrowboat. Years ago had a free holiday to deliver a boat from Shropshire to Oxford. I’ll never forget how we got the boat stuck on a roof of a submerged car in Birmingham 😂 great memories. Look forward to your next adventure - Richard👍🇬🇧😄
Thanks for this quick informative no messing about video. I have been looking at life on a canal boat recently. I live near the Grand Union Canal. I had my money card stolen from me which had the funds to start looking for a small boat so unfortunately this left me gutted and I had to stop my tracks toward the boat life. However this time next year, I believe with all the help of the different boaters out there I will be able to make a choice on which boat I am suited to. Thank you for your videos. Xx keep them coming please x
Thanks Karen, yeah for sure when I’m a little more settled it’s definitely something I might consider, but too many trips abroad planned for the next few years to warrant it right now x
Just the kind of thing i could do with so relaxing no stress awesome,now your back on the hiking trips again can not wait, you do make very good videos Kerry keep up with the good work and stay safe sweet
Photobombing kitty steals the show 🐈⬛ I’m an American who loves to see different living styles around the world and fantasize about how that would work for me. I love the narrowboats but would need an enclosed catery on the roof for all of my fur babies. How do ya think that would work?
One of my friends lives on ell pie island , he got two and glued them together - think its the longest you can go - very beautiful - lovely video as always , thank you ☮️
I have always wanted to spend a week in a canal boat! Sounds exciting. Hopefully one day soon :) Nice informational vid! Love your enthusiasm and energy. 💃☀️🌹
Thanks Linda, hope your ok 👌🏻 if you ever get the chance… go for it! Especially in the summer when you can chill out with a coffee early morning on the outside of the boat x so peaceful
This so cool. I have watched several UK crime/detective series over the years and they always show people living on these cool boats. Just a US girl geeking at such a cool way to live. ~RVA~
Really enjoyed that Kerry. Great insight into narrow boat life which I have considered a few times in the past! The simplicity of it all really appeals! Hope all well and have a great Christmas. Ben 👍
Merry Christmas Ben!! Ahh it’s so tempting isn’t it? Yes I’d love to, but not viable with my travelling abroad so much next year….. maybe the year after?
Great vlog. Covered so much. Thank u. Hoping to do this next year. Hope Jordan may do his own vlogging channel too. Lovely boat too. Best wishes. Trevor

Defo does 🐈⬛ wow how many do you have? There’s quite a few cats in the marina and some who have house cats that just enjoy pottering around the boat x
You should look into composting toilets! As I am aware, these are a game changer for van life. I’m very jealous of this life style, I love fishing and of course nature. I do have a family but toy with the idea, maybe when I retire with my partner we would travel the rivers of England. Great in-sight, enjoy 👍🏼
Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment, I will show Jordan this message! It’s a great idea about the composting toilets 😄 I’m hoping to head back over in April to do an update video with him and see how it’s all going
So am I!!! But my need to do some serious saving first 🙈🙈🙈 best of luck if you go ahead, I’m heading back in October to see how he is getting on a year down the line x
Never been on one before but my parents went on a weeks holiday with another couple years ago, they went away best of friends and came back not speaking lol. It does sound an idyllic way of like but I was surprised to see so many of them them. Not that keen on the portopotty emptying every day but I suppose it is not totally perfect but dam near! Cheers Alan
Great Vlog,we've owned Cruiser,s and hatch,s ,always seems so idyllic in the Summer, not so much fun in the depths off the winter,,then there,s the maintain,ence which can be expensive ,and running Repairs, so not always a bowl off fun,but lived your Vlog, Blessup Staysafe. Rgds
Stumbled on your Chanel that was the first vidio I viewed , I thought wow she’s gorgeous then carried on viewing and Jordan pops up , hello sailor have some of that ,tell Jordan a he has an admirer thirsty after him , lol, keep up the good work lovely lady you have new viewer your stunnning x
Ahh thanks for the lovely comment, so glad the video msg be useful to your friend 😃 if I didn’t work abroad so much I would be very tempted myself, but I plan on heading back to see how Jordan is getting on again this year for an update video x
Iam looking for a Cruiser Style Reverse layout around 55' to continually cruise around the English canal system, look on all the websites Nice one Kerry...Hope your well :-)
Heyyy a canal boat seems like a pretty nifty holiday to have, definitely a pretty unique one! Come to think of it I might never have actually seen one myself! seems like a pretty unique way to travel the UK by drifting along some waterways, pretty cool idea! Great work by the both of you 😁🙌🏻
Yeah for sure! I’m going to head back to the marina this autumn and do a 1 year catch up to see how he is getting on and find all the pros vs cons of narrow boat life after a full year Finding the right mooring is such an important decision too x
Yeah, something where you don't need to have a licence, though my mate's dad was a fisherman so I've driven boats before. I'd love to retire in one of these boats
I’m moving to UK from Australia up near leistishire and have been looking at boats. I have a camper van in OZ n swapping for a boat def a thumbs up for me too.
Hi Gracie, how exiting! 😃 I hope you have a wonderful time here in the UK.. I actually just filmed a follow up to this video which will be out in a few weeks. Seeing how Jordan’s first year on the boat went x Good luck with the move, I’d love to keep in touch and find out how you are getting on x Kerry
Yes I can imagine it does! But in my opinion the freedom and flexibility would make it totally worth it! Maybe when I’m more settled in this country after my travels I may try it for a few years x thanks so much for watching
I live on my 34 ft aquastar (13 ft wide) in a French coastal marina. €1,300 per year with unlimited electricity. It strikes me that uk waterways are a distinctly expensive option for living aboard.
Great video Kerry, hats off jordon I’d love this life, better living next to a couple of drunken goons who make our life hell, time to play the lottery lol xx
I know! I always dream about winning the lottery but never buy a ticket so my chances are limited 🤣🤣🤣 sorry to hear your neighbours aren’t great 😩 come move in next to me we would have a right laugh x
I’m seriously considering buying a narrow boat since I have a job that doesn’t inspire me and now the prospect of being tied to a mortgage in the current economic climate seems bleak. Would love to live close to nature and teach music online.
@@DrunkOnWanderlust I guess cos I work 65 hours a week and don’t have the time to do the proper research into getting a boat. Do you offer consultations/advice? I’d love to Skype with you if so :) x
@@DrunkOnWanderlust Was only young. Was great for a while didn't like winter so much . Bob Graham round in 9 days wish me luck. Hope the weather holds out for us . 🙂
Ahhh your lucky you live so close 🤗 we had a great time visiting, and had a nice walk down the canal and around Bosworth battlefield x can’t wait to do it again in the summer ☀️ thanks so much for watching
If I was a millionaire I'd have a modern state of the art custom canal boat made sure it would cost a packet but with modern materials insulation heating energy tech you'd save in long run
I get this! I suppose it’s like a house though x 😃 a mortgage or a loan 🤔 If you already have a deposit saved? I wonder if you could long term rent one of these?
Hi there Flo, thanks so much for your comment x So sorry to hear about your relationship, I’m actually heading back to see Jordan in his boat in a few weeks to do yearly update video … if there’s any questions you have or would like to find out anything in particular… let me know and I’ll ask him whilst I’m there 🤗
Hi there, he doesn’t have a channel yet, but he is hoping to set one up soon 🤗 we have done another update video with him on my channel though if you have a look Thanks so much for watching
Hi there Robin X thanks so much for watching 🤗 I think in some of the Marinas you can send your post to the main office and collect it, I’ll ask Jordan what he does for you x Ahh it’s the dream isn’t it! I’d love to, I’m so jealous of his boat …. Going back to do a year catch up with him soon and see how he’s getting on
@@DrunkOnWanderlust I don't have any major commitments although i am starting a hone based business so will need an address. I'm very grateful for any help your able to give. I really like being on narrow boats either in winter or summer.. I love the countryside and I will save a fortune compared to renting in West London.
Well Jordon do I get an invite aswell stud muffin I’ve been lusting after you since I saw you in the vidio on your new boat , lol I messaged you on Facebook was gona send gift to your marina for you but you didn’t reply sad happy sailing sailor x
