Absolutely superb. Very well done. Brilliant camera work, no voice over required. I have learnt so much, as no narrow boats are on the Royal Canal where I live.
Beautiful boat, great handling of it in the locks! Especially liked you using the forward momentum of the boat to pull the lock gate closed as you were entering.....pretty smooth!
There is a gorgeous bolinder in narrow boat clover an absolute credit to the owner who certainly is not the self proclaimed rudest man on the waterways.
Nice to see the old skills being employed. I remember in the early days of hire boating on the Grand Union in the 1960's watching the remaining working boats doing the same. Back then the lock gates had bollards fitted to them to facilitate closing them with the boats. As hirers we were instructed not to copy them. Same applied to not dropping the paddles. There was far less maintenance of the canals back then.

Working down from Kidsgrove in the rain! Great memories with Maple over the years between 1984 and 2012. In the early days the stove was always on at the back with some excellent coal from Wulfrona in Wolverhampton.
Ótimo vídeo! Além das imagens serem muito bem feitas, é muito importante que não conta com áudio com música, mas sim o som do motor e de tudo que está ao redor. Talvez por na minha infância ter convivido com embarcações chamadas de " bateira " dando passagem várias vezes por dia a pessoas de uma margem a outra do rio, é que eu gosto tanto desse tipo de embarcação. Talvez por eu ter convivido com meu avô " Antônio " por parte de mãe, em uma olaria fabricando tijolos, e que a mesma era movimentada por um motor "a óleo" e que o barulho de tal motor marcou a minha vida. Muito obrigado aos responsáveis pela realização desse vídeo, e pelo bom trabalho.

So many great moments in there ... highlights (from well foresighted editing) include Vicky's not so good looking stunt double and the twin 69's ... Nice Mike 😎 Please tell me there's more to come?!?
A little more consideration for lock gates and gear wouldn't hurt! Yes, you may argue that they equipment can handle it, but it shouldn't have to. The CRT already struggles with maintenance, every boater should be doing whatever they can to ensure they help equipment last as long as possible between rebuilds. That means not using gates to stop the boat, not dropping paddles heavily. After all, why are you in such a rush?
Is it me or are you travelling on the right side through the locks unlike auto traffic that drives on the left. The (what sounds like a hit-n-miss) engine would drive me crazy.
Nice bit of lock gate bashing and paddle smashing. Typical lack of care as usually seen from anyone with classic boats. Its not the 1920 with 1000s of staff to fix everything any more. Worse than first time hireboaters the classic boat crowd. Should pay double license fee the lot of you.
Do you know what ? I usually love the old chug chug chug engines, but this one with it's erratic running sounds horrible ! I can't even watch the videos. Rotary engines that surge idle do the same thing to me, i guess it's because a surging engine to me, usually means there is a problem. Engines with a governor that surge usually have a fuelling or ignition problem so i guess i am conditioned to not like the sound of surging or mis-firing engines.
Lord Belvoir why are you commenting at all ? Bolinders don't normally sound like this, they usually miss a beat every five or so revolutions but this misses a half a dozen revolutions before firing again.& i TOTALLY explained my reasoning FFS ! People like you make me wanna 😡💥

great footage, loved the old style ropework, a long forgotten art!

Love how he closes the lock gates with the rope... never seen that before. Love the videos
Fantastic bit of skill.

OK to fast-drop the paddles today? I was under the impression that that was bad practice in any case!
Thank you for the videos .
Greets from germany , thumbs up
Thanks for that. I don't think I could put up with that engine keep cutting out. Helped me cope with lockdown. Please stay safe and post what you can.
SNOWING IN USA NH this time ..............wonderful video, ....... wonderful boat and lovely engine................thank you. ..
love the videos! I'm an American young adult and I dream of owning a traditional narrow boat to retire on.
Best narrow boat video ive seen brilliant 👍👍👍👍class.

Nice trick springing around that corner!

I imagine the sounds of the present prevented them from hearing the sound of the past. Pity them.

there's always one. Know it all.
Super.
Очень красиво! Благодарю!
особенно вода класс =D
A pleasure to watch the crack crew work..! Wanting that sort of mate...
Bow button fender lifted to stop fender damage...bugger the lock gates.
These boats only just fit in the lock, you would not want to risk cilling the boat, plus the stem runs smoothly down the gate.
Don't ya just hate it when it stalls as you come to a stop. Losing all control while you climb below to tend to the restart.
Is it me or are you travelling on the right side through the locks unlike auto traffic that drives on the left. The (what sounds like a hit-n-miss) engine would drive me crazy.
Yes, boating on the right and driving on the left. It's a Bolinder hotbulb engine, low revving.
Hello, does it matter that the handlebar is red, white, green?
The colours usual are part of the company livery so that you can tell from the rear which company the boat belongs to.

She will never get fat will she 🤠😆👍🏴🇬🇧
The engine, not happy. Got to be air in the fuel line.
What makes you say that?
How old is this lock system? Two hundred years old if not older
The Trent and Mersey canal was opened in 1777, making it over 240 years old
Thank you
@@mykaskin thank you that's awesome appreciate it . Love it
Not much of a Bolinder, the one cylinder 90 hp was soothing to listen to!

It's a Bolinder ffs...Why you commenting on a video you couldn't watch......best stick to the RollsRoyce channel
Presumably you don't mean rotary engines as in old aviation motors, or in modern Wankels; so what rotaries do you have in mind?
Lord Belvoir why are you commenting at all ?
