Back in the canal town of Stone, we get our engine taken out of our narrowboat in order to get the repair done to our travelpack generator. While it’s out, we take the opportunity to clean and repaint the engine bay and bilge.

Very enjoyable. I was born in Manchester in 1949 but moved to Canada as a child in 1956. I loved this walk down memory lane.

@jlions72 2 года назад

This was so enjoyable to watch ..He is a very lucky man to have you in his life, and you guys get to have this life living on your boat, How cool is that .!

@barryansell5981 2 года назад

The general conensus is that you have made a marvelous job of your engine bay indeed, you most certainly have. Working in such a confined space with some rather nasty fumes given off by the rust protector paints.. The net end result is one you can be well proud of.

@albertjones1386 3 года назад

As I watched this episode, I was quickly reminded of the last Vlog and how some people were wondering if you were capable of piloting the narrowboat and working the locks. You seemed to do very well bring the boat to a stop at the engine repair shop. Again I saw you working the locks and then of course the great job mucking out the engine bay and repainting it. It was done very professionally. I do think you more than know what you are doing. Ryan is lucky to have you as an equal partner. You two make a great team. Happy motoring and as always, stay safe

@NarrowboatChef 3 года назад

Thank you! We’re a good team, we do enjoy being together and doing stuff together. I (Maggie) really don’t mind getting into the engine bay and doing stuff as I like to know how things work and I’m a bit of a perfectionist and like to do jobs myself so that I know they’re done to my liking! 😅

@williamsmith2919 3 года назад

@fjLh50go2wxP 3 года назад

Well, engine out of alignment issues results in all manner of broken bits and pieces. You are fortunate it wasn't more serious and to have had competent machanics working on your narrowboat. Very nice work cleaning up engine room.

@johnacton5417 3 года назад

It struck me early in the video that someone had fudged a repair in mounting the alternator 2 out of 5 bolts etc. Curious as to why there was wood and MDF in the bay and am wondering if it was to deaden the vibration caused by the mis alignment of the prop shaft.Having the engine out was the only solution to getting the job properly. Witness the smoothness afterwards. Looking at what they did, and needed to do, that was a very fair invoice and like others loved the handwritten bill. As for the cleaning and repainting seriously impressed Maggie & Ryan. Are there no end your talents?

@NarrowboatChef 3 года назад

Haha, thanks, we do have many talents! Most learned because we needed to! 🤣 The engine does seem to run smoother now with the realignment, less vibration in the boat.

@Geordo1960 3 года назад

I would have to agree they treated you well and did necessary repairs. I know it’s expensive but when you get repairs done by well skilled people it’s worth every bit in the long run, saving trouble and expense down the road. They know their jobs and they know what these beauties need to keep them reliable. I too believe as far as I can tell with all the repairs they did, even though costly, it was quite fair. And I don’t think is easy for honest repairmen to have to increase the bill, but after all, in the end, it’s their skill and judgement you are paying for.

@Geordo1960 3 года назад

You are very wise in taking the time while the engine was out to work on the engine bay, and well done too! Amazing and impressive!

My wife and I love watching the English narrow boats. 1st thing, well done on the engine bay, and paint job. The repair yard sounds like a great place. 2nd thing, take some advice from an older and wiser man, please stop over talking your wife. Let her finish, then you can add when she is done. Just be respectful, of each other. It goes a long way. I will add this, the sarcastic remarks will get old after awhile too. Any way, be safe and hold each other as the most important person in your life. We wish you all the best.

you are very funny, you Englishmen with these little houses on the water ... we take out the engine and repaint just enough, no more on the sides ..; it was time to make everything clean again .. . !! decidedly we don't have the same ways of thinking at all ... !! just the right amount ... no more! and the bridge is all dirty, it too would have deserved painting ... !! and the paint pot ... you have to stir it ... !! there are so many tutis when you don't know! really you are special you English ... !!

@garymucher9590 3 года назад

Sounds like it was well worth the price in my opinion. Parts are one thing, but labor has to be added in. That is how they stay in business. But I think you all think it was worth it as well. AND, I like your little doggy too! She looks so cute...

@NarrowboatChef 3 года назад

@jiloute22 3 года назад

Very nice paint job, I am happy for you that your engine is repaired and that it did not cost you too much

@arthurhardy 3 года назад

Having the engine re-aligned is a Really big thing, And you noticed the better running and reduced vibration right away. From personal experience painting rusty steel or steel exposed to the weather, I have found that wiping the steel down with Kerosene will help an oil based paint adhere better. ( It helps displace any moisture left on the surface)

@patricias1213 3 года назад

Just wanted to say love watching your channel. We were trying to guess how much your engine work would be and thought £2,000.00 so were amazed when it was just under a grand. You got very good service and must be very pleased with everything. Hope all goes well for your end of season trip. Pat and Peter xxx

Narrowboat Chef, Dolly Blue, see if you can get some, it comes in a 1" round block and if Pixel get stung in the mouth wet the dolly blue and dab it on the tongue well where the sing was. I've not seen it for years, coz you use to buy it from small hardware shops, it was used in your laundry with your washing powder to give your whites that special whiteness! But great for stings, my dogs always use to eat wasps. All lived till old age cept for Sheba the second, who had cancer. Also watch Narrowboatwill channel.

@bobbob-fg5wy 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing, Ryan and I must have the same spirit animal, watching you work is a pleasure. Sounds like that boat yard knows thier stuff, alignment is important, the excess vibration from the missalignment will be what broke all those bolts and kept them breaking.

@richard180961 2 года назад

Narrow boats can become a money pit, if you are unlucky & get a bad one or one that has been botched up. The price of repairs seemed exceptionally good, what with having all the welding done & re-alignments of the shafts-engine position. Had that not been done you may very well have been looking at a lot more expense further down the line when the prop shaft bearings would have been damaged, so all in all a very good job well done.

@jeremykamel9655 3 года назад

You’ll not regret having the job done right. Your gear box, propeller shaft cutlass and packing will all last longer with the proper alignment. Your boat will probably be smoother while under way. In fact because the generator is so high up the vibrations from the misalignment of the engine to propeller shaft could have caused the problem to begin with. Because any vibration gets amplified the further away from the centerline of the engine. So it was all a sound investment. Nice job painting! Cheers! Jeremy

@NarrowboatChef 3 года назад

Yes, that was also the conclusion the engineers came to. Pleased that it’s all aligned properly now and it does seem to have made a slight improvement on the way the engine runs, less vibration through the boat. 😊

Unusual for a Kubota diesel engine to have problems let alone one that requires removal. I can only recall one failure in the last 15 years which required removal from a machine and we have over 200 currently Kubota powered and have sold on hundreds that got too old for the hire fleet over the years.

Ours is a Beta Marine engine and it wasn’t actually an issue with the engine itself but rather the generator that is mounted to the engine. Due to the location of the generator, the engine had to come out to allow them access to the area that needed the repair.
