- We start trying to fish something large and heavy out the canal then we make our way through the stunning Cassiobury in Watford. Here is a real time cruise - no commentary - no music, just the lister and the birds

Rob and you certainly have some grand adventures. Such a beautiful cruise! Thank you for sharing.☺️
A lasting gift from the fourth Earl--thanks for inviting us along! Bird song, Lister and peaceful surroundings--couldn't be better.
Glad you enjoyed that peaceful one
Amazing views almost feel like im on the boat. Really enjoy this 1
The second half of the video was absolutely tranquil. You have managed to share with us the peace and tranquility that you feel when cruising along without a care in the world. Could you please show more like those please?
Ok that’s really good to know. I fell asleep whilst watching that back and editing because the lister and the slow scenery - but I did think that some would like it. I will do some more of it especially where the scenery is interesting
@@TheNarrowboatThatJamesBuilt Or maybe even a "side channel" with scenery only on it. I'm gonna watch it again. That should boost your viewing hits up a bit.
Loved all the history you shared. The soothing nature of this one was just perfect for a stressful day. Thanks so much, James.
Lovely cruise James, thanks!
Reminds of the song "Cruising Down the River" just so gentle and calming. Many thanks James, take care.
Aww thanks
Well done James & the Swan that seemed to be guiding you along!
What a beautiful cruise was sat on front of boat with you. Lost in the moment of the birds, beautiful houses and scenery. Thanks James for sharing it with us all. Have great week😊
So glad you enjoyed the am cruise bit
That was a beautiful cruise. So peaceful and hearing the birds sing was great. Thanks for sharing this James. Hope you and Rob had a peaceful mooring. 😊🤗 Kathy
I’m glad you liked it
Thanks as always
That was a really beautiful journey - thank you so much for sharing it!
You’re welcome
Ahhhh and sleeeeeep ! That was soothing James thank you 😊
I fell asleep twice during the edit !!!!
@@TheNarrowboatThatJamesBuilt lol that’s hilarious! But wasn’t it so relaxing !
What a lovely stretch of canal Jamie’s relaxing vlog tc now the oldies how’s Carol or have we missed updates 👋👍
Yes, James, how is Carol?
Glad you enjoyed that. I spoke to Carol a couple days ago. She’s ok - got problems in her flat which I’m probably going to have to sort for her. But she’s always upbeat despite the rough she has live with. Thanks for asking - she’ll see that and it’ll make her happy that people are caring for her.
Great vlog and what a lovely cruise thru some amazing countryside. Best wishes
Really glad you thought so - was wandering if the whole audience would simply turn off or fall asleep
Lovely video 😊thank you
Loved the cruise down the river to 19:23
Top Video Young James. Nice and peacefull. Ive decided I may have to move over to the "Dark Side" and buy a Narrow Boat if I am to do some cruising in the future !!
JIMBO !!!!
Yes of course you should. It’s not the dark side you know - it’s the opposite
good vid
🎉
Hi James, is there a reason that you (mostly) navigate on the portside of the canal?
I tend to navigate where the channel is the deepest especially when I’m out with rob as he has a deeper draft than I
James, why are you not using your walky talkes to communicate with the other narrow boat?
I was just thinking the same thing!
Mmmm, because I can only find one of them!!! That’s on my list
Very Nice. A shame it comes after learning your license fee's have gone up 10%. seems a bit much.. any who.. safe boating to you an Ron on Sarafina
Thanks !! Glad you enjoyed the vlog -
Hi James and Rob, lovely videos. Thank you. I wonder if you two or any of your commenter's know anything about marinas mooring charges as to having to pay a year up front? I have looked on the web around legalities but have not found anything about it.
Would be very grateful for any help thank you.
I’ve never heard of paying for the year upfront. I understand usually it’s done in quarters, so payment is upfront but only 3 months at a time
@@TheNarrowboatThatJamesBuilt Thank you for taking the time to reply. Yes this is all we have found and heard. It seems there are no boaters rights about this and marinas can pretty much do what they want. Looking forward to the next video from you guys :)
Good Vlog yet again, keep them coming. Not far from number 400. Party?
Glad you liked this one
Liked them all @@TheNarrowboatThatJamesBuilt
Looking pretty chill, how's mooring down there compared to upstream Berko?
Dreadful in a word.
Do the footbridges or regular bridges not have a height clearance marking?
No because the water levels change so heights aren’t reliable
Nuts isn’t it 🤷🏼♂️
How on earth are you supposed to do the far lock gate if you can't get off the bridge?!!!!
Some ones coal box
That would have hurt a prop
I didn't hear any birds, are they real?
What? I heard loads of birds chirping away - of course they’re real.
@@TheNarrowboatThatJamesBuilt I'm a bit deaf, and I also enjoyed the 'birds aren't real' conspiracy. :)
Some of those boats you’ve passed look barely liveable.
Welcome to Watford 😂
