I love the ingenuity of makeshift emergency repairs. I once burst a radiator hose in the middle of nowhere in the middle of Spain. It was a 6.2Ltr diesel Chevrolet so no likelihood of spares. I taped up the 1 inch split with gaffa tape, split a pop bottle to get some plastic to reinforce the hose and secured it with jubilee clips. It got us to our next stop. Total delay - 30mins.
You are a brilliant Dad Will, Leon is lucky to have you around. Leon’s boat looks brilliant and will be even better when he gets the teething problems sorted and adds his own style to it. Looking forward to seeing his new home flourish 😊
Hi, that BMC diesel was once an option for diesel-powered Austin and Morris A60 saloons back in the day as taxis. gutless but ok for town work and the odd longer fare. I am no boater but mechanically minded. In Leon's boat he needs "connector blocks" used for electrical work but will join broken cables. safe boating.
Afternoon Will. Good to see Leon getting some mileage in on his new boat. Learning about it by having to fix and tweek it. Glad you got the gearbox linkage back together. Looking forward to more adventures. He'll have to do his own filming and send it to you! Again, loved to see the upper Thames, brings back memories. That Oxford Cruisers base near Eynsham below Pinkhill lock was where we first hired a boat in 1974. It was called Carribean Cruisers in those days and they sent us a Christmas card! Regards. Paul.
Leon's boat is a 1973, so it was made around the time you hired them. Times flies, hey Paul. The upper Thames is very pretty to cruise in summer. Take care. 👍
Seems like boating is in the blood, great to see Leon following in your footsteps I guess he will progress to a canal boat one day but depending on river or canal life best for him. Nice 1st boat bit like a van running them comes at a cost when they break down, I'm shocked you couldn't fix the van and Mr AA saves the day.. Lovely video thanks for sharing kev the Brinklow kayaker currently in Padstow Cornwall new video put out few days ago.
@NarrowboatWill yer beautiful down here. I've still not done my second youtube video of the creek paddling maybe tonight after more kayaking lol. Have fun.
Well done with the temp repair ! Heard that the ribble link may be opening for a trial run to clear those pre booked! Assume this is before major repair to the tidal gate , and maybe only for South passage only!
I don't think so because of the breach. I can get down to Preston. They've closed and emptied part of the canal. I'm getting worried about being stuck here till next year. I can't afford to be lifted out. Hopefully something will turn up. 🙏
So pleased for Leon, he deserves it. He was very fortunate to have you there. Beautiful stretch of the river there. Thank you for sharing this. Best wishes Christine x
Great vlog, lur👍It's a lovely plastic boat Leon got for himself, better then your first one, well done to Leon, and to your brilliant fixing skill to get it going, again👍So glad that Leon finally has his own boat that he can call home.
Morning Will. Just seen the news about the canal breach at the Hollowforth Aqueduct just north of the M55 (to Blackpool) crossing. Assuming you are north of there, as its at the southern end of the canal, looks like you are cursed to wander the Lancaster for ever, like Captain Jack Sparrow! At least its increased the chance of a crane out I'd say. Typical heh. Looking forward to todays vlog. The viewing numbers shot up on Leon's new boat videos didn't they. Even more than the vlog I starred in.😂😂😂😂. Chin up as they say. 👍👍. Paul.
Hello Paul. It looks like I'm stuck here, or I pay over a £1000 to get off. I might have to set up a crowd fund page. 🤔 It's nice here. I'm near family etc. Could be worse. 😂
Hi Will, loved how you managed to get Leon's boat going, always good to be an out-of-the-box thinker, he's a fortunate chap to have you as his dad. 😊 Di & Mike (soon to be boaters)
Hello Guys. Thanks for the comment. I think you'll find you will need lots of diy skills because getting anybody out to look at your boat can take weeks. Get stuck in and give anything a go. Learn to service your boat as well. Good luck. 👍
@@NarrowboatWill Yep, we're the type to get stuck in too, that's why we appreciate a fellow lateral thinker! Am sure Leon will love being the proud owner of his own craft, with all the experiences - good and bad. Everything will stand him in good stead.
I've given him a socket set. Wire strippers and connectors. Various spanners. I sent him 2 solar panels. He's doing OK because I never got any help. Ha ha ha 😂
Wow this reminds me of the little boats that went to Dunkirk as Richard Attenborough & Bernard Lee had gear box problems at least your only on the River Thames , well done with the repair what a brilliant boat Leon !!
Great boat Leon has bought. First cruise is always teeth clenching, getting to know your way round everything. He can gradually do it up and make it a home and it'll be brilliant! Well done Dad Will for your supporting your boy 🤩
Welcome to the waterways Leon ,, I have only been on the canals a month now and its a alot slower pace then my last boat ( dive boat out of Dover with twin IVECO's ) .. have lots of fun matey.
You remind me of my Dad. He could always fix anything as well. My older sister is very handy as well. I'm useless. My Dad used to always joke that I must belong to the postman .
I'm sure we will meet on the system and cruise together. I want to upgrade his charging system for him. Thanks for watching. Shui is coming onboard soon.
@@NarrowboatWill that will be great watching you cruise together and I always love seeing Shui ☺️ You are such a great dad Will. Have a wonderful day 😀
Wow so unlucky to have a control cable break, well done with the bush fix 👍👍 all the control cables need to be regular checked, the clamps can loosen and slipped cable can be very dodgy. Leon has found a good looking boat that with some love and lots of use will do him proud. 👍👍
Had visions of Leon having to shout down to the engine room asking for more power to the engines, ramming speed! Installing one of those speaking tubes down to the engine room.
Congratulations Leon on your boat. Pretty neat looking. Listen to ol' Dad. Get you some tools and some spare parts, bolts, nuts, screws, etc. lol Will, campers up in Alaska, etc. fight mosquitoes, midges, horse flies, etc. all the time. Need to get you some netting to put around your head and neck, wear long sleeves and gloves till you get out of that mess. We've all been there, done that in camping and boating here in the US. Travel safe guys and good luck with your new adventure/boat Leon. Oh by the way Will: why do they exist? Just to make our life miserable. lol
i bet leons glad to have his dad around to help him abit , but it looks like you're having a nice cruise , that last bridge was very tight , gulp , i would have put the screen down before going under it lol . will leon bw having HIS own chanel like you too ? .
Nice lines to your boat. I know boats but fast forward your vlog when you do the engine bits. My childhood and beyond was sails and you just can’t mend wind and tides. You’ve got luxury!
Looking great Leon mate you'll make a engineer of you mate!!!! Absolutely well done dude!!!!! Hope it all goes very well for you mate love your boat as well looks fantastic!!?😄😄😊👍👍👍😎😎😎
@@NarrowboatWill I’ve done it Will, picked our brand new boat from North Kilworth, didn’t take any tools because we were just moving it 4 hours down the cut and lost steering, tiller bolt came loose, turning left or right but carrying straight on 🤣🤣👍🏼
Wow, so brilliant that both of you worked together to fix that boat. What a team. Sorry about Mr. Van. Not that it was anything to do with me, just sorry, that's all. Honest... 😂
Great vlog again considering all the teething problems 😩👍🏻 At the beginning when you shouted look at the size of that I thought you had dropped your wallet out of the Lamborghini again 🤪😂🎧👊🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Sorry to see that Leon's boat broke down. That's the only problem with cable operated gears . the cables have a tendency to snap . from time to time . Always carry a spare..I'm surprised the last owner didn't keep one on the boat...??? Along with a throttle cable.. You know the meaning of the word boat..it stands for . bung ..on ..another ..thousand..? Anyway will I'm pretty sure that you will sort it out for Leon.. You mentioned about being cold .. perhaps a campervan diesel heater may be the answer for that .. Anyway folks stay safe and well.
I said to Leon about getting a diesel heater. They seem to be popular. Most boaters carry spares. Leon's got one now. But that repair is still going. Ha ha 😂 Thanks Wayne. 👍
Is the cruiser a Elysian ? It looked like it. It certainly needs some TLC I am sure your son will love doing that to make it his.. We had one for 40 years , Sold it 2 years ago , a very sad day.
Hi Will, filthy thumbs up! I am watching this vlog right now now. Sorry about the boat breakdown. Will what I want to ask is was it on one of your vlog that you passed a post box in the wall on the canal? If so which canal was that. I watch vlogs about postboxes all around and this one person asked if was for real. Could you please let me know. Thank you. 👍👍
I'm sure it was on the Thames. There was one high up in a brick wall and one on a post in the water. I'm sorry I can't remember which vlog. I've done so many.
Perhaps I should clarify, I'm thinking of the CRT arranging and paying for a crane out and transfer to connected waters. Not you. They've done it before. Anyway, enjoy the day!
Hey Will, wanted to do my part for the YT effort and leave a comment. Well, that's about it 🤷♂. Thanks for another one. Take care. Edit... OH! I wanted to ask you about rust converters. I've never used them before and wanted to know if you recommend one over any of the others? I've seen Fertan used on other narrowboat channels and have found something called Corroseal but I'm not sure if one is better than another. Thanks.
Can you say AMERICA? It's a B52 out of Elsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota. If you start to see our B-1's from there, shit is about to hit the fan. But again most of the time the B-1's run from Elsworth do their thing and come back home.
@@NarrowboatWill 8 engines, and it has inline landing gear that swivels to about lets say 10 to 15 degrees to allow it to land sideways in a crosswind. I use to work on infrastructure at Elsworth, From the gates all the way to the no go nuke storage. The B52 is oldest and longest in use bomber in the world. I think they are upgrading it again to get another 20 years out of it. I think they are trying to get a 100 years out of the airframe. It's getting close.

Nice 1 guys, yes indeed ref your boat recovery skills, buzzing for you on that one. Happy cruising Leon…
Hello Wales. 👍
It's a good boat with a good engine. I'm sure he'll make it look smart.
Well done both of you.and congrats on your new boat Leon.

You're spot on Will. When there's a problem like that get the kettle on and think it through..you always stand a better chance..Great vid that 👍
Absolutely 💯. It's really good practice. 👍
Well done guys.didnt panic or cuss to much ,got the job done.

Very nice little video and getting too know your boat looking good,👍👍👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it Thomas. 👍
