Hi Guys
Welcome to our latest episode in our ADVENTURES in our TINY FLOATING HOME.
In this weeks video we have a really challenging day facing rival gangs of swans, flooded tow paths, massive amounts of floating debris, trees down and to cap it all we get hit by a massive squall which forces us to make an emergency stop! Just your average day in our OFF GRID LIFESTYLE. It’s a good job we love our NARROWBOAT LIFESTYLE as this day tested us both fully.
We hope you enjoy a look at our ADVENTURING LIFESTYLE xx
Season 1 | Episode 55
We are Jackie & Michael and we travel the British waterways network on our 57ft narrowboat Border Reiver. Join us each week for our latest adventures as we explore the UK.
We hope you enjoy our videos. Please remember to subscribe, you will be notified when we release each new video. We love reading all your comments so please do leaves us a comment, we answer each one.
Thanks for watching xx

Another gem. I'm on repeat now for a few episodes. Can't wait I'm still in awe at your brave navigation of river, canal weir. In testing conditions.

@cruisingontheborder 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Graham, it was a challenging day. Scary when the squall came through... Michael reacted so quickly. Some times you have to know when to stop.

@Rollanotheronemyfriend Год назад

You two have a classy well kept boat. Even the engine sounds well maintained.

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi thanks for the very kind comment, we do try and keep it very tidy and clean.Its a bit like the Forth Road Bridge at times. Michael is great with engine maintenance and always keeps it up to date hence why it sounds sweet. Hope you are enjoying our waterways adventures?

@@cruisingontheborder I’d like to think we’re in with a chance of going straight back up but we’re way behind the other teams at the moment with the take over delaying things. We’ve lost a few players and not signed anyone yet. We’ve got a decent manager in who knows how to get promoted so see what happens. Fingers crossed…

Hi John 😀 so pleased you enjoyed. We can’t believe what dreadful cruising weather we’ve had this year. Hopefully the sun will shine soon 🤔

@ssailes Год назад

Hi guys, an exciting but goodness that was a squall..... I have asked before if you could share each time you post a video when it was actually taken. Maybe not the exact dates but perhaps the month and whether it's first half or latter half. It would really help give everyone a sense of what boating is like at any given time of year. Please 🙂

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi. It was indeed a massive squall. The worst we’ve ever had whilst actually cruising and I couldn’t stop the boat as there was nowhere to do so. We will try give an indication as to when the ep was filmed but we have so much footage as we film constantly almost everyday so we do run behind as we are playing catch up in the edit which takes a huge amount of time as you will appreciate. Stay safe and hopefully you can continue to enjoy our channel. 👍❤️

@garyevans2643 Год назад

I have been watching narrowboat vids for years and I have to say that this one was one of the best ones I think I have ever seen. It really shows the down side of narrow boating. Mud, rain and flooding. Thank you for posting.

@karenjaques3937 Год назад

It's a portal to the next challenging season. Here where I dwell summers high temperatures are life threatening so we shelter too. Around 17th of July we usually get hit by monsoon with gale force winds and thunder and lightening. Then we enter another portal when the temperature drops slightly and by 1st of November we can wear a jacket. Its all one big adventure. Tunnels, loch narrow gates, barn gates for me and hay presto another portal opens and closes. Stay safe and enjoy the magic. ❤ from Arizona.

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi Karen wow your weather is so much more challenging than ours 🫣🫣 it sounds totally scary. We’ve got some further storms and a flood coming up so keep watching. Love to Arizona 💕

70 footer in a gale no problems and i havent got a "girlie button"😂....but in all fairness if ya dont feel confident enough you did the right thing, after all whos in a rush👍

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi Love you comment, no 'girlie' button eh. Suppose it's like not having an automatic car now isn't it. Definitely not a confidence thing with either of us. But yep you make a great point about we're not in a rush, it's such a slower pace of life, we love it. Hope you are enjoying the rest of the channel.

@DOCTORDROTT Год назад

About 40 years ago we hired a narrow boat to run on the river around Evesham , Pershore to Eckington. That year we had a huge amount of rain making the river higher and flowing more . We panicked as we approached a bridge. We reduced power to idle and the barge started to drift sideways, it went broadside into the bridge and got stuck. People called out the fire brigade and they winched us off the bridge . The narrow boat was called the " Golden Tiara ", wonder if its still around ? It did not put us off though, we needed a holiday to recover from that holiday

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hello, thanks for story, hope you were all ok after that slightly scary event?? We find we always need to be prepare for anything especially when water is involved. Hope you are enjoying our waterways travels, lots more to come. J&M

@SuperDixxxie Год назад

Great episode in tough conditions guys. Think some of those short wellies would be in order for those muddy towpaths😁❤

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi. Thanks for your comment. Short wellies would have saved the day as you say. But I was off the boat and didn’t see the flood until I was on top of it and I had to get through it to open the lock for Jackie. Good job it was me in the mud and not her!! 🤣🤣

@johnland5042 Год назад

Always a challenge in poor weather especially if it catches you underway and no suitable spot to moor up. Good idea to reverse out of that last lock to a better mooring spot! Hope you got dried out!

@cruisingontheborder Год назад

Hi John, You are right my friend. The weather dictates what we do each day. That said, there’s no such thing as bad weather it’s incorrect clothing! So they say. 👍❤️

@thefurrybastard1964 11 месяцев назад

I think the Swan that knocked on your boat was after a free feed. He looks very used to humans and narrow boats. Glad you made it through without any serious mishaps.

@cruisingontheborder 11 месяцев назад

We also think that swans, geese and ducks know what a duck hatch is and they just wait for it to be opened... very clever.

Swan wars .. mud bath at that lock built in 1916.. seemed quite poignant.. as over on the Somme back in 1916 .. the BEF (British Expedition Force) were up to their waists in mud in the trenches .. my 18 year old grandfather was over there with the 1st Bucks Battalion of the Ox & Bucks light infantry.. going over the top on 17th June 1916 .. being shot twice at very long range by a sniper .. in ankle & chest (which lodged in his wallet stuffed with letters from home) .. other bullet lodged in his ankle.. he was left in no man’s land for 3 days .. having to cut out bullet with his bayonet .. & stuff his hanky in the hole .. by time he was recovered to allied lines gangrene had set in & had to have his left leg amputated below the knee .. was sent back to Blighty for further surgery!

Winter cruising demands ankle wellies, one size too big. This allows easy on and off so you don’t drag the mud aboard. 15 years living aboard and constantly cruising teaches one a few tips. Capt John
