I love the French canals, especially the Canal De MIDI, so picturesque and from what I’ve seen mostly lock keepers to help boaters through locks. Thanks for a lovely vlog, I’ve only just found your channel. X
What a truly Delightful video Lizzie... You were very lucky with the weather..... If I had known you were out and about in that region I would have asked you to pick me up a case of Chablis.... I love a nice cold Chablis..... Or ANY wine really... :-)) No music needed.. sound was just right.... :-)))) xxx
Hello from the UK Thankyou for such a lovely cruise along the rivers in France.. What lovely scenery you have.. Ive only travelled once abroad for a holiday with friends to canary island. Was not very impressed. Give me a boat on a river or canal with lovely scenery anytime. I'm hoping to buy a 60ft widebeam in about 8 years time here in uk to enjoy the rivers and canals.. Best wishes John
@@jimmineweaser3300 there are two ways! First you can be very brave and sail it over!! Second you can put it on a truck and take it over in a ferry 😊😊 I would love to do the fist way but will actually do the second 😂😂👍🏼
On an early video it was purchased in France at its home port after being left unused and unloved for several years by the owner who had sadly passed away.
I have been moored in Auxerre for over a year now and it’s lovely! Would highly recommend, it’s at the junction of the river Yonne and the canal du Nuvernais
Given that we have 1000 immigrants crossing the channel in rubber dinghy's everyday, I assume crossing the channel in a narrowboat is possible. But is it legal?
Yes it is; however the crossing is not insurable unless you are insured through the presence of a skipper & over-the-canal shipping. I believe you also need to have VHR.

Thank you for the beautiful idyllic cruise! I loved every moment of it while relaxing in my bath!
Lovely! I’m so glad you guys too Benjamin out for a lovely cruise. I loved the bells ringing!
I thoroughly enjoyed that Lizzie. Great to see everyone safe and well. A great crew you have there.

Lovely, thank you.
This was a beautiful cruise. The water was so still that it was like a mirror

How peaceful and empty x
Welcome back Benny V.
Gorgeous scenery
Beautiful journey!
Scenery is beautiful, camera work is excellent, think it would be nice to have some commentary on where you are etc.
Thank you for the feedback, I was wondering if I should have done that! Maybe for the next video
I just am discovering narrowboating as an American! How did you get your boat to FRANCE from England? Or did you buy it there?
This is one of my plans to bring my Narrowboat to Europe 😊😊
How does one move a narrow boat across the channel?
Signed a curious American future narrow boater.

@@NarrowboatPreciousJet Cheers for that!
I'm thinking of buying a Dutch cruiser in the Netherlands and sailing through Europe. Where do you buy diesel?
Nice, I've been thinking about getting my narrowboat over to holland, did you ship your boat to france or buy it there ? Cheers

Did you cross the English channel in n the narrowboat?
Would be very interested on Benjamin’s current situation
I didn't know there were canals in France.
Can you recommend a nice marina we could bring our 65ft Narrowboat too in France
I have been moored in Auxerre for over a year now and it’s lovely! Would highly recommend, it’s at the junction of the river Yonne and the canal du Nuvernais
Thank you can you recommend a boat transport company from Cheshire Uk to France?
Just thought I would tell you look at page 56 of le Fluvial magazine this month.
No water birds!
Randy from California says, "Lizzie where did you go? I loved watching your channel and then you just vanished. No Hi, No Bye, Just Gone!"
OOO no videos for a while....hope everything is ok?
You were very quiet today
Six months absence is a long time, I hope everything is okay.
