Awh thank you so much, your support means more than you know! 💓💓
Watching this again because it is so joyful
This is the best footage of taking a narrowboat under Tower Bridge of any of the other vloggers who have done it. You showed all the steps involved and I really felt I was experiencing it with you. The best vlog ever. Fantastic, thank you x
Wow, that’s a huge compliment thank you so much!! ☺️❤️ you’ve made our day!!
Wow! What a Vlog. We both got the adrenaline rush again watching this. We are so glad we did it with you guys and made some lovely boating friends to share more adventures with. hummmm ‘The Wash!’ Bring it on. Xxx🧸🧸
Always a pleasure sharing these amazing experiences with you both ❤️☺️ thank you!!
The wash? Easy peasy haha 😉
10:50 just love the reaction ❤️❤️❤️ you two are ace!
Amy at 12:50: “what is happening!?” So funny!!! Phew! What a ride! Thanks for sharing. ❤️
Haha it was very overwhelming in a good way! 😂🤭 thank you! ❤️
That was epic you guys. You are making so many memories, it was a joy to watch all those lovely narrowboats holding their own on the tidal Thames. Respect to you all and thank you for taking us along for the ride. Loved every minute. Your vlogs never disappoint ❤❤❤❤
Fantastic . Now come and visit us here on the wash.
Thank you! Maybe some day...! 👀
Its obvious you rise to the challenge, once you get going, so either cross Bristol chanel, or Wsh or cruise down the Severn , with a boar runnning, your going to be bored back on sleepy canals after that :)@@BoatTime
@@tessapetters3936 haha! I’m confident we will do them one day 🤭
woaw this was seriously amazing, congratulations on your 10,000 subs too , smashing it guys
Thanks so much!! 🥳 cant wait to see the whistling wombat crashing through the waves one day!!
@@BoatTime I thought you were about to say crash into that bridge haha can't wait to do it one day, looked so amazing, well done guys
haha, lets avoid the bridges ey 😉although it would make a hell of a video "we crashed and damaged tower bridge" 🤣@@TheNomadicCrobot
Absolutely loved this! It was like actually being on there with you both.. Happy celebrating you both deserve it…🎉❤❤❤❤❤
It certainly was😃 I think we all must have felt a gamut of emotions. So exciting!
Well done to you all for that epic event in your lives. I didn't think the River Thames could be so exciting.
Thank you! Definitely won’t ever forget it! 😊🎉
Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant episode ✨️✨️✨️✨️
Thank you Simon, so glad you enjoyed! 😊
The amount of vulnerability you both allow; your fears and your anxieties and your raw joy, is just so relatable and lovely. This trek was thrilling, how cool to get to go under all those monumental structures! Thank you for sharing your unique perspectives, I really cherish this channel and all the good feels. 💜
Without doubt one of THE best UA-cam channels! 😍
What an absolutely wonderful comment thank you so much ❤️🥹
I actually shed a tear when you went under the bridges! You guys did amazing!!!
Aww thank you so much 🥹❤️
Well done you 2! Fantastic 😀
Mission accomplished. Two intrepid swashbucklers who always make me smile, your energy is boundless. Enjoy life
Oh my Lord, you guys are so brave. You could hear when the screw came out the water. So proud of you both. You will never forget this day xxx
My favourite episode yet. You two were stoked, Rufus was a good boy and seeing the boating community at the end. Can’t wait to be part of it next spring!
This was amazing to watch-thank you both so much! You were so brave.
HUGE WELL DONE GUYS 🎉 that was epic!! It looked so scary but you did it!! Laughed out loud at "He's eating his hay. Oh, now he's eating the waaall" 😂 love you guys 🤗
Aww thank you so much!! 🥳❤️
Why have I got a lump in my throat watching this. I was so pleased for you. Great Job guys 🎉
🥹❤️
I took a dutch barge from the Nene out into the Wash and around the coast to go up the Thames. The roughest part was moored over night on the limehouse pontoon, each passing boat would have us rocking for over 30 minutes, it would just calm down and another boat would set it off all over again. You guys will find the Wash easy now your seasoned wobbly boaters. What the film crew about? On CTCs vlog it seemed they were filming you, and there were little glimpses of extra crew in this vlog. Will you be TV stars? Can you give Ruffus a biccy from me for being a total legend, my last pup didnt seem fussed While cruising... Until water invaded his space. Ruffus reminded me of Wals ❤
This has got to be the best vlog yet! Absolutely loved every second. Wes, as a fellow anxiety sufferer, I know how you must’ve felt and I’m so proud of you 👍🏻
Awh thanks Sian! That means a lot. Anxiety is horrible but we got this! 💪🏻💪🏻
I agree x
💥What a wonderful tour of London with all the famous landmarks visable on the Thames from your house. Scenery to die for whilst sharing all your excitement, enthusiasm and thrills.
WHAT A RIDE.
🔴Greetings from South Africa. 🔴
Tell Andy I want a hug too 😂❤ well done my darlings ❤❤
Haha he gives the best hugs!! 🤭❤️
Love watching you both so happy and enjoying life. What an achievement and a memory to treasure forever. Thanks for sharing x
Thank you!! 😊❤️
Woooooow...how absolutely fantastic...you did it and I smiled all the way through with you...Your smiles said it all..❤
every video I have watched where boaters take their Narrowboats into the River Thames I always get nervous, Kudos to you all
Well done to both of you. You should be very proud of yourselves conquering your anxiety ❤
Thank you so much! It was a big mental hurdle, but so worth it! 🥳
You two are brilliant ! Well done for facing your fears and doing it. Wes, you were so worried but you both smashed it
Thank you! It was really daunting, but we can't express how comforting it was to do it with the SPCC! 💓💓
We were the boat on their slides at 1.18 with the wave up the side.. Its a great trip but next time go with them on the extended cruise which turns left out of Limehouse, down through the Thames Barrier, then to Marcheness to wait for the tide to turn. Then its all the way back upto Teddington for an overnight stop, before returning to Limehouse the following day.
The briefings and organization do make you feel safe.
Thank you, hope you don't mind us using that photo. It makes the point that narrow boats can cope quite nicely....
@@ScholarGypsyOx Not at all Simon, it was a nice surprise. Will have to do it again one day.
That was so fun to watch that I watched it twice! 😆 Seeing all of the little narrow boats rising up over the waves in the front profile views was the best angle to see how choppy the water really was. It was great to watch you going past all of the sights like Tower Bridge and MI5. I’m so glad that you both really enjoyed the experience in the end despite being fearful before hand. Also how lovely that you all got to do it together as a group.
Awh no way!! It was so good, we had great seats being 3rd in the flotilla of 30! So glad you enjoyed watching, it was such an incredible trip! 🥳
This premier stream was fantastic . The nerves and doubts on show prior to the event 😰 Going under the Tower Bridge your laughter was infectious 😁 The confidence you showed after passing the waves, such derring-do was on display 😊 The pride you exhibited at the end & the enjoyment of sharing this day with fellow narrow-boaters as part of the community flotilla. And sharing this premier with us on chat was very much appreciated.. ❤
Also, this has to be the most entertaining and well edited narrow-boat stream/video I have seen, well done guys.. 👍
I “absolutely” 😊 feel like I was there with you all. My 69 year old self had a great time. ❤
Yay!! Thanks for watching along with us! 😊❤️
That was amazing guy's thank you for taking us along.
Thank you for watching along with us! 😊🎉
This was so much fun to watch! What a cool experience, you guys were so brave!
Thank you so much! ☺️❤️ I’m sure we will be seeing you do it one day 😉
Loved seeing 13 nb in the lock at the end
8:14 you are so brave to do this!!!
That was crazy, noisy, waves , and when the duck hatch fell open i freaked , thought it would start ejecting belongings out there. Well done , somethings aren’t as scary as you think Wes🥰🙋🏼♀️
Amazing well done ❤
You smashed it, well done both of you. xx
That building was MI6, the Yankee equivalent, I think, is the CIA.
Wow! I just love Emily’s laugh the scarier it got! Well done :)
Amy* 🥰 haha yep! it was a great nervous laugh 🤣
Thank you for that guys❤ we want to do that in our boat now ❤❤
Do it! You’ll love it ☺️

Many thanks for that most enjoyable adventure. It’s over twenty years since we did that trip and you brought back so many happy memories. Congratulations for coping with that challenge so well and on all the many ways in which you show just how enjoyable narrowboating is.
Wow! I felt ill watching the lock bit! Wasn’t expecting the banging side to side 😮
