Inside a Nutshell - Inside our Narrowboat 

Thanks for the tour, I love that you guys actually have a hobby room! The only thing I would change is to put removable windows in the side hatches...

Thanks for the tour. It's a nice layout and really spacious for two. A boat full of surprises!

Lovely boat, it just goes on and on! Loads of space (I'm very jealous). Those windows are called, "Side-hatches" - occasionally "duck feeders" or "swan hatches"

That boat is so long!! It goes on forever!!

Thanks for letting us have a look around :) Lovely boat! Definitely "Not bad" :)

One day i'll get me Harris Tweed coat on, brush some Burberry Edt and get goin on with mi own boat. Going to be an English country gentleman. Thx for the video.

Why isn't the fridge in the kitchen? Cool boat! Camping on the canal...would love it!

Great to be able to follow your journey, love it xx

Thank you for the tour. I would love to know more about the hydraulic system!! No others like it? Any drawings available? Please describe your system as much as you can. I really enjoy hearing about how two very different types of technological systems can work together in and be handy.

Loads of space! Half expected to see a bar? 😉

what a set up ! beautiful

These narrow boats really fascinate me.

One day of sun blighty weather

plus the diesel stove doesn't need any electric so will continuously work without draining your batteries or the need to run your engine!!

Hubby is now addicted to your channel! Magnus where did you get the led strip lights from ? He wants to do something similar in his T4 camper! Loving the beer scores! Are you coming near the Midlands again or the Crick boat show?

Wow, hydraulic power is impressive to me. Well done!

Excellent !

My Gosh! It’s so big! Very nice layout!

Thanks for the tour, I never knew of narrowboats at all then I find they are nice houseboats cool

I’ve never seen a narrow boat here in the states. Wow! It’s a floating city block!

Very nice - clean.

Happy memories!

I like how it was terse and not too wordy,thus long. Perfect length. Saw Aslan on Amazon prime tonight, came here.

About time somebody has a decent sized studio. Love it but needs a sit bath. After researching the benifits of a bath, i never will choose to be without.

I like the light wood interior.

Good to know. thanks for the prompt reply.

Sorry for this very "ignorant" question. Does it mean you power your engine with only water? You do not buy gasoline or diesel?

Just spent a lazy day here in sydney watching all your boating/ beer drinking adventures. Thanks for posting them all, keep enjoying.

I didn't know they have those in Australia as well.

Hi guys. Spent a most enjoyable hour watching your videos. You're such a great couple and you've totally inspired us. Much love. All hail the ale xx

I have a RV here in the states so I’m interested in the practical part of this lifestyle. Where do you get your fresh water for cooking and bathing and washing machine? Where do you dump gray water? You pump the toilet I know. How cold is it in the winter? Thanks

The doors are called Duck Hatches...

In a " Nutshell" you have a nice good spec, boat Magnus great buy and like you say not to much work to do.

why is there such muddy water in the canal ?

Very cool boat, surprised how much more there is to it compared to the smaller ones!

Awesome video

Wow. We own a 30' sailing yacht and the idea of. 70' boat just makes me smile.

Wow! Never saw the inside of a 70 foot narrowboat. Very cool! Lot's of extra room. Is it hard to manuver?

If I ever make it back to the UK I will use hydraulic drive on my boat. It really is versatile and you can power so much from the engine without worrying about voltage drops and wires getting hot etc. Great boat!

Hi Magnus & Wendy, We just started watching your vlog and it has become one of our favorites. We especially like that you video your travels and that you let us know where you are. Most other vlogs tend not to share their locations, which is understandable. Love seeing the villages and other points of interest along the way. We have enjoyed several narrowboat holidays and are planning to get our own narrowboat in the next year or two. So we're following you with much interest.Keep up the good work. Ken & Marylou

What a great boat find. It is so suitable for your needs, has space, light and storage. I love it. Just found your channel, binge watching and enjoying your journey sharing. Thank you xx

How much does a narrowboat like this cost?

Wow...very nice narrowboat. Maybe the best I have seen. Love the hydraulic thrusters. Thanks so much!

Very nice...... 6 foot 10 inch beam..... Hard to imagine and im a sailor. I'm use to cramp spaces but 6.10 ??

Those little windows are called side hatches nice boat :)

You could have fitted a stubbie holder on the tiller extension.

Nice. I'll hopefully be getting one eventually. Do you intend to continuously cruise or do you think you'll make use of marinas to any great extent?

Why are so many of these boat so narrow? This is not quite 7-feet wide. I would like my boat to be no less than 10-feet wide. That extra 3-feet would make a big difference to me. Is there some law about their widths?

How long is this boat?

the windows you didn't know the name of are just called side hatches

I'm impressed, love the boat. Pity about you removing one of your heating redundancies. The Diesel stove with coils and a Webasto or other hydronic tied together, would make a perfect pair, with redundant circulation pumps. Worst case you have a solid fuel heater in the bow and a Diesel heater in the stern. ;-)

love the music to by the way. And I think the hoges gday would be a great opener and probably become as infamous as the old "not bad"

im looking at living on a boat........ you have just made my mind up. Thanks . p.s. loads of love at you.

It kinda makes me think this is what it would look like if you lived in a subway car

I don't think you should be getting rid of the diesel boiler, maybe just move it a few feet closer to the bow (to the other side of the wall) so that it is in the utility room area. it's always a really good idea to have some redundancy in your heating, plus it's always on and is silent, unlike like the wellesco. nice boat sober Aussies.

Wow, I learned something new today. Did not even know these narrow boats even existed.Happy trails to you from here the USA.

Fridge?

I've been hearing that any boat over 60 feet can't travel he entire canal system. How limited are you really? And how much arr the widebeam boats also restricted?

"saloon", saloon, really? On boats we call the "lounge" a "salon", or a "mess" at dinnertime. :) And on boats we don't have doors but hatches.

Nice boat. Do you still own her?

I guess when Aussies come do it... They're onto something! X

The boat's about as old as I am! :D

Nice looking boat 😉

Love your narrow home, please share a video of your cheese making!

hoy piper I am Maria mitu and I oweys woch yor video and I con stop wishing it

Isnt coal and wood like.. the same fuel? Multifuel insiuates propane/wood not two versions of the same fuel. You can call anything bifuel if it uses coal and wood lol. Ive made dual fuel campfires before

This popped up today.... ohhh how I miss NB Nutshell.....

"Not bad". Thanks for the tour. Really long.

Enjoyed this video

Wow, when you said through this door is the back half, I thought you were kidding. Guess I'm not a narrowboat expert yet despite watching dozens of videos. I'd like to learn more about your engine. I would have guessed it would be too noisy to be in the art studio while cruising, but I suppose not based on what you said.

Wow! No pub in there! Nice boat.

Very nice, I especially like the separate compartment at the rear. How did you go about buying the boat? Where you still in Australia or did you buy it after arriving in the UK?

lovely boat guys, it's huge... Thought you were joking when you said you were at the first half. The hydraulic drive sounds interesting. thanks for the tour.

It looks like it but im not sure. Do British narrow boaters travel on the right as we do in our cars in the U.S.?

nice boat. I think it surpasses "not bad".Seems heaps more spacious than the 50 footers shown on here. the extra ten or fifteen feet really makes a difference.Do the bow thrusters help much and do they allow you to steer in reverse? Batten down the hatches there's a storm brewing. or maybe a beer! cheers.

Best bit about this .. "we dont watch Tv" ..👍

Not bad 😀

Nice lay-out. Nice boat!!

Wow this is really Long Great layout

What a lovley barge

Hi, Smart looking boat :) If you are looking to sell that Refleks I may be interested in taking it off your hands?

nice narrowboat. have a great time What kind of toilet do you have? cassette or composite?

Thank you for the video, quite an interesting mode of life & travel. I don't think we have these in Canada as far as Google can tell. Out of curiosity, what is the ceiling height, I'm about 1.98m tall, would I feel cramped in one? Thanks again.

How much to convert to pump out toilet?

Hi, just found your channel, loved the tour! Thank you very much for sharing! Subscribed. Warm regards. D/P

Very fascinating, i dont see this everyday in fact where i lived narrowboat is not a thing, so its very fascinating to see.

It's a beauty size!!

No tv ? Are you on the same planet as me ?

Lovely boat. What are your plans? Cruise for a year, then sell and back to Australia or is this now permanent? Enjoying the videos. Great stuff.

do you have to be careful not to change gear while the engine has power with dual controls?

Does the length of your boat prevent you from accessing certain canals?

A nicely laid out "narrow boat" lol....... I often wonder why do they put the wood fires near the front door rather than somewhere near the middle of the boat ??? is it to keep an open plan layout ??? I would think you would lose heat out of the front doors and getting hot air down to the bedroom would be hard ??????

Was there generator capacity to run the washer and galley stove?

Do you have a refrigerator

Thanks for the tour - very noice barge ;-) You appear to have heaps of swan hatches too. Cheers!

What is average price for this ? How long is the canal ?

Excellent! And greetings from another boat dweller.

They're called Hatches. ;)

The doors in the sides of the boat are called hatches. Loved the tour by the way. Viktoria E. Rotenbourg-Benson.

Cheese making kit, you mean a collection of old socks??? Nice boat.
