Fran and Rich, you two are so laid back. Enough to make anyone feel confident.
Thank you, Dee made it easy for us
love you guys , so great to see Dee coming aboard and you sharing a wonderful experience on your Narrowboat together .
Thank you so much, now we've lost "The Narrowboat Experience" girls and Shaun & Colin are no longer cruisers you're my weekly (or there abouts) canal fix.
Pretty special episode, should be on ww TV ! My Uni mate went round the world, laughs at my interest in Narrowboats. Hmm watch ! Brilliant episode ! Being humble is always good.
Awesome... Just awesome 😎❤️❤️❤️❤️
I really enjoyed Gongoozling from my arm chair. Great fun.

Fantastic episode, I can see you both on a BBC 4 collaboration with Robbie Cumming. 👍
Fabulous. Absolutely brilliant. You are really famous now. What a super vlog. Well done. Great fun.

Nice to see you both at Crick, great weekend, already looking forward to next year.
This was so awesome & funny!! Could u ever imagine a few years ago, you guys would be doing all this?? Marvelous, just marvelous!!
We would have had no idea. It was an amazing experience and we are so lucky x
That was wonderful!
I loved this so much!! So enjoyable!
It was such good fun
This was so much fun! Love it!

Lovely to see the boys sitting in the front row of your event.
Yes it was

Aaww, thank you very much
Such a wonderful vlog, enjoyed watching Dee learning how to manoeuvre a narrowboat! 👍😁
Thanks so much! 😊
Hello guys, watching you and your guest as I type. She seems quite lovely.
She is an amazing lady and was the perfect guest and student
Absolutely brilliant!!! Thank you one of the very best yet, hope to see you sailing soon 🌱⛵️💕
Thank you, Rich would love to go sailing, but I will need a bit of convincing
Really great video, I gotta say, the best. Look forward to part two
Loved it! As usual! Love you guys!
Loved this vlog... especially with selling my boat and not having had the chance to have learnt to steer her at all.... it was great to see another person feel the excitement of being on the cut and feeling free..... ! Xx
Thanks Lynette. She was a natural and hardly needed any tuition but it was good to see how it looks from a beginners point of view
Amazing video, absolutely loved it. Cannot wait to see Part Two. Also, it was lovely to see you at Crick.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Fran looks lovely as always
Wow, thank you, couldn't stop watching!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great vlog you three i enjoyed, laughing all the time. look forward to the next vlog XXXXXX Ed 40 S of Vegas
That was so much fun to watch. Dee was a delight, she took to the canals really well. I really want to thank you all for a super half-hour viewing. All the best.
So glad you enjoyed it, thank you x
that was great nice to see what happens when a person doesn't do it perfactly. great video
Glad you enjoyed it
BRILLIANT...
Great couple great to see you a crick although didn’t get chance to speak. Take care
That was fun!
Thanks for showing the video. I went to Crick on Friday so missed the presentation. Dee seemed really nice and it looked like you genuinely had a lot of fun. If you get to go sailing Rich make sure you don’t fall in 👍
😂🤣😂
Great video…thoroughly enjoyed it.
Just love and injoyed your video . Thank you stay safe 🙏
Well, the plants stayed upright when that Armco got tagged, so it wasn't all bad. ;D My US Navy Dad would have said something like, "Hey, Dee, this is a narrowboat, not an LST."
Narrowboat bumps always look worse than they are
Drifted away from your channel a little lately I'm afraid, but enjoying catching up and happy to see you both looking so well.......terrific film by the way guys, as always.
Welcome back! Glad you enjoyed this video
Well - I’ve done it! I’ve caught up. I was watching Kevin and Aslan thump-thump-thumping along a week or so ago when he met you at a lock, and of course he put me onto your blog (as you canal vloggers tend to do) so I whipped over and checked out Floating Our Boat. When I saw that Fran was a weaver, I knew I had found a new channel. (I am a weaver as well, and had often wondered how big a loom you could fit onto a canal boat). So….I reversed allllllll the way back to Episode #1 and have made the journey along with you up to the present.
A big thank you from Pennsylvania for letting me tag along and learn so much about the canals, the history, (and a few vegetarian recipes). I look forward to whatever’s coming.
Wow that is amazing. Thank you so much for joining us and you need a medal for catching up so quickly. Doesn't sound like much weaving was done this week. Glad to have a fellow weaver aboard x
I very much enjoyed that. Thanks!
Our pleasure!
Really enjoyed that
That was very excellent ❤️!
Thank you so much!
Well done, enjoyed the vlog as usual.
Enjoyed that, is is not so easy to teach a novice sailor eh, but think Dee soon got the gist of it, look forward to next episode, and Rich can have a posthumous Water Rat certificate, (LOL)
Brilliant
That was lovely!...hope you two are good.
We are fine thank you. Back out in the countryside now
Thank you that was great. Enjoyed the Fox flight! Cycled down there to many years ago now.
Glad you enjoyed it
great video...
Thanks!
Thank you so much William that is so kind of you xx
absolutely loved it! funniest part was the "Rich save me!" lol too funny
Fran & Rich, this was wonderful! You are gracious & patient teachers!! I can’t wait for the next episode!
Delightful!!!
Lovely, brilliant vlog.... who was that lovely Yorkshireman asking the question at the beginning?... he should start a youtube channel 😁😁🦊🦊
So funny xx
I imagine you two are well and truly exhausted after the pre-Crick prep, Crick, and then the filming. So many people! It was fun seeing the video with Dee, but also odd to see such a highly produced piece (à la Prunella and Tim) instead of your own more realistic snippets of the simple canal life you've created.
As soon as this popped up on my phone we headed for the TV's larger screen. What fun and we can't wait for the next episode!
Thanks to everyone for an exciting time on the canal and at the event at the boat show! I look forward to the next episode with Dee. Y’all take care of each other!
Wow! To have her spend time learning the game of Narrow-boating with you on your boat is a wonderful thing! She's a world class hero and so humble and courteous too! I wish I could watch the whole video but I have a task to do this evening!
When are you doing a canal to coast video? as a sailor and canal enthusiast I know you will have an interesting time and it will make a great video.
Rich would be quite keen. I might need a little convincing
Love your Tshirt Fran and your shirt Rich. You both look so happy. Great video and look forward to the next episode.
Enjoyed seeing or passing you Saturday on the GU Leicester Arm. Too bad there was such a wind and the canal so narrow. I didn't dare stop and was having a time a tick over. Anyway, I appreciated you giving me a shout from your bow. I'm headed back that way tomorrow. May pass you by again. Jack. The American Narrowboater
It was good to see you Jack, Hope you are having a good trip.
@@FloatingOurBoat Had to abandon the cruise due to my middle son getting hospitalized in Leicester. Still I met some wonderful people and passed you and several other vloggers.
@@jackbeyer4356 So sorry to hear this. I hope he is ok.
@@FloatingOurBoat He's much improved today. The clue that he was on the mend was when he began to complain about the hospital food. He's hungary FINALLY. We plan to sneak in a home cooked meal in a few minutes.
What a wonderful time you had with Dee, her innate seamanship soon showed through her initial anxiety. She is also a very delightful person. Her exploits of sailing round the world the wrong way is truly epic and she deserves all the accolades she received .Accolades for you too Fran and Rich for being the best hosts and tutors ,a wonderful vlog I'm very much looking forward to part two. Happy cruising safe journeys .
Cheers from sunny Canada
So glad you enjoyed it Ralph
Just a brilliant film needs to go on the tv channels would make a good documentary
Thank you
OMG that was so Awesomw to watch and Dee started of nervous but took to the waters like she had been doing it for years..... and to see her face when she hit the bank the other side, I give credit to Fran for just letting her just do it well done can't wait for episode 2... Bring it on..
I think she showed what we all feel as new boaters
And another fantastic adventure in the books! Too exciting that you were able to be a part of this! Your fame is expanding! Just think, my fellow subscribers, we can proudly say, "we knew you when..."! Safe and relaxing travels you two! Love to the pups!
Ha Ha, I don't think we are that famous. We know where we belong
Looking forward to the next instalment. You two make the perfect instructors....perhaps a future calling teaching helmsman courses?
I don't think we would have the patience. Dee was such a good pupil she made it easy for us
really excelllent, I have to agree with Paul Franklin's comment. No disloyalty to Shaun and Colin, but for us you guys have taken over the #1 Spot.
Brilliant video! Fascinating to see how Dee coped with narrowboating and how patient and helpful you both were! I'm deeply impressed.
It was easy to be patient with her as she is such a lovely person
What a great vlog! Thank heavens for Fran and Rich who can now add 'Instructors' to their CV's 🤗 Already looking forward to Part 2. In the meantime, relax and enjoy your wonderful life.
We are, thank you
Hi Fran & Rich, that was excellent to watch. You guys had so much fun, looking forward to the next episode. 💜💜🙋♀️🙋♀️
Absolutely Brilliant . You two are video naturals ! ,I am so going to enjoy this mini series ( as I do with all your videos) Thank you to all concerned for this venture and to you two for your bravery in taking the challenge on 😁
Thanks so much!
I think that's what's called a "scoop" by the Fleet Street jockeys, wonderful to see how well she took to things, thanks to your expert tuition, of course, with some small assistance from the temporary 'bow thruster'. Dee is a thouroughly lovely lass and I hope we see more of your cooperative project soon. Take care, both of you.
She was amazing and we would love to have more adventures with her
Pleased to hear the launch went well guys - so happy that everyone enjoyed it!
That's a worthy Peter Criss impression but I don't blame you for not doing a 'Geddy', for the Tom Sawyer boat.
Enjoyable stuff as always...cheers.
What an absolutely fabulous episode. Thank you. Jane, Philadelphia
I literally couldn’t stop smiling.. Fabulous
SO well done, and kudos for scoring this challenge! Looked professional. The cues, confidence, gentleness.Loved it!
Thank you
Sure did! (Enjoy the video). Great to see you guys in this kind of context. Looking forward to the sequel! Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Fran and Rich, that was really enjoyable, loved it all the way through. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks so much Fran and Rich. This was so fun! Looking forward to more.
I am betting you were exhausted after the Crick show and just ready to have quiet time by yourselves.
Absolutely, we are enjoying the peace and quiet now
what a fab blog this week. brilliant. thanks 😊 x
Thanks for a fantastic vlog with Dee learning how to helm a boat, lol. Take care and all the best. Stevie
Brilliant! Didn’t want the episode to end, thank you 😊
Brilliant, thank you!
Wonderful video. I smiled through the whole thing...my cheeks hurt. You are all such lovely people. Thanks for the ride. Merry Ann from Minnesota
You are very welcome
Aww guys I loved this! Didn’t get to see it at Crick and the film was great! You two are naturals. 💕Thanks for the mention too xxx
It appears you were the cause of the trouble!!!
Thoroughly enjoyed the vlog thank you. What a lovely person Dee is and really worked well 😉 Foxton is not the easiest staircase to do - even for experienced narrowboaters. Looking forward to part 2
She was a bit daunted when she first saw it, but managed so well
Well Done , The perfect host's for a perfect guest. I bet it took you both back to your first time on the tiller :) . Fantastic..
I think she was more nervous as it was someone elses home
Well that was fun!❤️🇨🇦
Love it, you, all of you, are such kind people x
Thank you so much
Looks like great fun!!!!
Love it because y’all make it look so easy
This video was amazing, so much fun, I loved it!
Wonderful episode! Can’t wait for part two!
Love it, well done all!
Such a great seminar at Crick and really lovely to meet you both. We enjoyed watching the episode again. Now breathing time back on the canal for you both, warmest regards Jacquie and Mark xxxx
We loved meeting everyone at Crick, but so glad to get back to the peace of the canal
Nice to see Colin and Shawn yes ?
Absolutely
