Wow what fantastic team work, experts in action, well done to you all.

Just a quickie, best to put cable grommets in the bulkheads when passing cables through, this prevents vibration wear or chaffing on the cables against the wooden drilled holes.

I used to work on debdale marina...the big machine that moves the boats is called Dorothy!... great bit of kit!

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi Richard great comment thanks for that, we didn't know the 'beast' had a name. Amazing piece of kit.

@John-L-1961 2 месяца назад

Hi both of you. Really interesting seeing the boat out of the water having all the work done, the Blacking looks like a lovely job (NOT) 🤣. The big machine used to lift the boat up and over the other boats is what we in the shipping container transport world call a straddle carrier, used in the docks to move the containers about and lift them on and off the trucks. The ones in the docks are quite a bit taller so they can stack containers 3 high.

@cruisingontheborder 2 месяца назад

Our pleasure! We are so pleased you enjoyed it. The blacking was challenging but we got there in the end. That is such interesting information about the crane, we think this one came from Holland and it was rebuilt on site at Debdale and modified. We hope you get chance to watch some of our other videos. Look forward to hearing from you again. Jac & Michael x

@jerrybailey5797 Год назад

This is how they got tye idea for Thunderbird 2 , International Rescue 😅😅.... Actually lf they did it with Thunderbird 2 your boat would've been put in one of the pods , then when it was finished the pod would've been dropped in the after and your boat just slide down the ramp 😉 👍

@jerrybailey5797 Год назад

Great to see you got Border Rever back in the water safely . And you've got a new router sorted 👌 👍

A fascinating video. I was nervous when your boat went back in the water but I didn’t need to be. Such skilled people lowering your boat. Also your wifi guy was brilliant. Thank you so much and cheers.

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi so lovely to read your comment 💕🙏🙏. You were nervous, 🤣 imagine standing there, so many creaks and groans for the ‘big machine’ as we went over the top of the other boats but the worst was the slope on the back of the trailer 🤯🤯. But we made it, floating again 👌

@bishopkinlyside8477 Год назад

Hi guys, I’m a new viewer , I just love narrowboats unfortunately they don’t have them here in Australia. Hopefully one day I’ll get over there and hire one for a week or two. Keep up the good work. Good to see you splashdown with your narrowboat , Cliff from Logan City Queensland Australia 🇦🇺 from the big island 🏝️

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi. Great to hear from Aus! We have quite a lot of subscribers from Australia so you’re in good company. Only yesterday we got chatting to 4 Sydney residents who were on the canals on a hire boat having a great time. So maybe one day you could come over and do the same. We post a new video every week so make sure you hit the subscribe button to be the first to know when there’s a new episode. And in the meantime there are plenty of our back catalogue videos to be going at 🤣 Take care and hopefully you can drop us some more comments as you follow our narrowboat journey 👍❤️

@janhjorth965 9 месяцев назад

Clearly an outdated (for previous work) straddle carrier from a container port….no reason to suspect I would not be up to the job if they keep it certified. It even still has the container lifting attachment, solely with the minor modification of adding boat straps. That is a very solid setup.

@cruisingontheborder 9 месяцев назад

Wow very interesting 🧐 didn’t know that. Pleased your enjoying our cruise adventures 💕

@davidbassett4577 Год назад

Another interesting Video Michael & Jackie. I’ve seen a narrowboat being lifted out of the Grand Union Canal down at Bletchley; but that was just a mobile crane & the boat was put straight on to some sleepers in the yard .. not seen anything quite like that moving monster lifting beastie .. must have been a few heart stopping moments when you saw Reiver Border swinging above the other boat! Your new wifi connection looks good too .. much better I am sure.

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi David. The lifting machine was a real beast! The noise it made as it did it’s job was immense. Nerve jangling moments though as you saw. The WiFi is excellent. The tilt airel is a brilliant piece of kit! 👍❤️

@ionizer24 Год назад

That can’t have been an inexpensive day! Good video. Thanks.

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi so pleased you enjoy the video. The marina we’re great, fantastic service. We felt very safe in their hands… so should we say crane 👍👍 . X

Lol my favourite 2 movie stars you looked like the blues brothers it's nice to see your little princess back in the water must have cost a fortune God bless you both now you can keep on sailing for many years all the best John 😊

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Good evening John so lovely to read your message, you made us both smile 😃 👍👍. It all went well in the end. Now for the cruising! Hope you continue to enjoy 😉

@iand4422 Год назад

Boat looks great and I’m sure your glade that you are back in the water it was good to see it being lifted out and back into the water again

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi 👋 thanks for taking the time to comment it means a lot to us 😘. It was challenging but so satisfying and now we’re cruising again it’s wonderful.

@thoughtsonnarrowboatingwit3882 Год назад

Just make sure that slings and ‘D shackles’ are ‘in date’ and all lifting procedures have been fully checked and signed off BEFORE ANY LIFTS TAKE PLACE. Guys, you deserve a medal… there were to many lift exchanges going on there and while it looked safe, from a construction supervisors perspective, having been involved in countless lifts, you were a lot braver than me moving your home like that? Boat looks great btw🙏🏼

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi loved the comment. Clearly you have an insiders view on this and yes three lift processes to get us back in the water 🫣🫣. They did a fab job, we were so pleased. BR is back fighting and cruising again. Keep watching for our next adventure 😎

@thoughtsonnarrowboatingwit3882 Год назад

Just a tip, Spring wood Haven Marina, on the Coventry Canal winch out for blacking, far less hair raising … also, at Taylor’s Lock you are 200 meters from one of my compounds … electrification of the Midland Mainline, now taking place. At Taylor’s Lock recently and near the great glen aqueduct…. I reported the pound there recently (empty) and a wide beam adrift, roughly where you moored up for a G&T… take care🙏🏼

@janhjorth965 9 месяцев назад

I get where you are coming from, but certs on shackles and d-rings will not be available unless they are nearly new (or from when they were new). Nothing prevents you from being your own from a hire firm, but that would be impractical. Personally I would rather ask when were the slings last out of the sleeves for inspection……they are a much higher risk….oh and get tha hydraulic topped up to eliminate the pump squeal.

@janhjorth965 9 месяцев назад

The lifting process with spreaders bars remove much anxiety…but 3 lifts are an unnecessary extra complication..they need to break the jackhammer out and make space for the straddle carrier directly over the launching dock.

Great to see you back on the water and BR in her natural habitat. Pleased that you had a very successful time at Debdale Wharf Marina which has some excellent and skilled staff for all your needs. Glad the WiFi is working out for you and I think I'll upgrade mine to the Mimi Tilt Antenna this coming winter - another one for the job list. Looking forward to future episodes of this year cruise.

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi James. Thank you for your comment. Glad you liked the WiFi installation. We had an expert do it for us which really helped. It has changed our digital life totally with no more worries about getting a signal. The router/ antenna combination were carefully chosen by our expert. He made a great choice. 👍❤️

@neilmurfet3392 Год назад

The skill of the crane operators always amazes me. I worked at Gayton marina in Northampton for a while and used to help with the craning in and out of boats.......Did you have to put a SIM card in the router to select a provider? All the best Tricia and Neil......

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi Tricia and Neil The crane operator in that beast was excellent and he was dealing with inches below and to the sides! Yes we use an EE unlimited data SIM card £35 pcm. We have not had less than 20 download speed anywhere yet and often get far greater speeds than that so all good. The tilt airel is brilliant. 👍❤️

@RetireMentalityChallenged Год назад

Very slick antennae setup. You'll love that. Boat looks great and I've noticed a lot of folks doing what you've just done and they all seem just about as rejuvenated as their boats! ;^)

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi 👋 thanks for your lovely comment. It means a huge amount to us. We’re so pleased with the WiFi it’s such a bonus having quality consistent wifi on board. Yes we and Border Reiver feel very rejuvenated 👍👍. Keep watching more cruising next week!!

@jolewis-brown6608 Год назад

A really interesting video. I held my breath on several occasions but great to see BR back in the water after all your hard work. A question - what about the bottom plate? Does that ever require maintenance?

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi. Yes it was a nervy time for us as we were hanging inches above the boats below! We chose not to black the bottom plate this time. We do it every other time, so it will get done in 2 years. Many say it only gets dragged off on the bottom so not much point. 👍❤️

@bolllochead Год назад

Do you need to dry dock every year? What are the additional costs like for this? There are so many other things you need to think about!

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi thanks for the question. No we only need to go out of the water every 2-3 years for blacking. The lift in and out is approx. £350 x 2. Then if you do the work yourself like we did its cheaper. Hope you liked the scary lift back in.....

Does the flat bottom hull not need blacking as well? If so, do you have that done at a separate interval?

Yes it does and we did do that as well, just forgot to include the footage... argh!!

@Sco1ful 6 месяцев назад

Stupid non-boater question, what about the underside of the hull, does that not get blacked?

@cruisingontheborder 6 месяцев назад

Great question and yes it does. Just as important as the sides.

@paulreynolds5114 Год назад

Can I ask in total with these marina fees out the water & paint what it cost?

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi Paul thanks for your comment. Every marina is slightly different in their charging depending upon their processes. Ours was around £350 per lift and we had a lift out and back in the water again. The blacking paint I think we mentioned in the video was around £200 for that large drum. As we mentioned it was a lot less expensive to do the blacking ourselves and more satisfying if a little frustrating at times. Hope you continue to watch and enjoy our adventures 😀👍
