I wouldn't worry about people like that. You've got a right to be on the river just as much as anyone else so don't worry about people like that 😊 carry on cruising boat time❤
Strange world we live in 😄 sad for those with a self-elevated sense of importance and status. You guys enjoy life and don't need to be bothered with them types 😘
So sorry you both got harrassed by someone who thinks its okay to treat others with such contenpt . You are two of the loveliest narrowboaters here on you tube and have every right to be on the river. I love your channel keep cruising and doing what you do best making people smile with your vlogs ❤❤😊
It wasn't you two, it was clearly obvious it was him. They just don't like narrow boats or wide beam boats. I was laughing when they were leaving. You both seem very friendly and kind. I wouldn't worry about it. I thoroughly like watching your videos. If I could retire and move you the UK I would in a heart beat and I would buy a wide beam and live in a marina close to London. But unfortunately that can't happen. I would only be able to stay 3 months and have to return back to the states for 3 months. You both keep smiling. Kimberly from Las Vegas 🩷🩷
@@BoatTime Hopefully one day. I just love watching you guys. So full of happiness and this is what our world is so lacking. If I ever get over there I will look you kids up. Yes, I am much older. Lol will be 63 in October. Just be safe out there. 🩷
Wonder why the guy in the cruiser had such a disliking towards narrowboats. Was funny how he tried to dissuade you from mooring then a wide beam moored up 😂 as always a pleasure and fun to watch ❤🧸🧸
We have so many of those cabin cruiser boats in the US that I don't even take notice of them. Now, if we saw your narrow boat cruising around my lake, you'd be the hit of the party!
Me and my partner look forward to every one of your videos after binge watching all of them since your channel started! You make us laugh, you’re both brilliant! Don’t let that moody guy kill your buzz x keep up the fanastic work but can you upload more often please 🙏🏻
Don't worry about the snobs on the river (their loss not yours) I personally enjoyed the video. You two always make me laugh. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
I love that your upset faces retain twinkles of a smile through what was evidently a day when everything fell apart. Sending you both love for holding the frequency.
Oh my that guy really was a horrible snob! Don’t let the snobs ruin your good time they are not worth it! You are kind and funny people and I love watching your videos! ❤❤❤❤
I bought my Dunkirk Little Ship in 1995 and managed to keep the mooring it was on, as long as I cut the lawns and vacuumed the pool. The mooring was on the weir run of Old Windsor Lock. At the time I was working at Heathrow constructing the Heathrow Express station at T4. Lived onboard for 2 years then moved the boat onto the Medway. The mooring you left at the beginning of the vid looked like Runnymede and what was Citroens main spares depot. The fueling station you were heading for was a place to steer clear of on Saturdays as that was hire out and in day. All those learner skippers aiming for the locks was not the place to be but had to be suffered while making way to my favorite watering holes. Stay safe and be careful drinking that pink stuff. PS: This was in the time of Concorde and when that took off towards Windsor, it flew right over me. The noise made the glasses rattle on the shelf, so we did away with em and drank out of the bottles. PPS: I used to hate mooring near Tupperware Boats, until I couldn't get into the bank at Cookham and was invited to raft up on one. Plus they opened the gin bottle, not to be outdone the House of Commons port came out.
Hate the snobbery some boaters have!!! I own a 1979 JGM 27ft boat, I also get a lot of 'don't look and we won't see him' attitude from narrowboaters when I wave to them
This video reminded me of an incident a couple of years ago that had completely slipped my mind. The exact time and location are still hazy, but one evening I was looking for somewhere to moor my 59' narrowboat and I saw a gap behind a cruiser. For some reason gaps always look smaller to me as I approach so it wasn't until I drew level that I realised we could get in the space, so I reversed in. A man came out of the cruiser holding a boat hook and was running back and forth peering at my boat. As I tied up I asked what was bothering him and his excuse was that his GRP cruiser had been damaged by a steel narrowboat in the past.
love a mini cruise, I can relate to Wes...I panic if I know we have to go by a certain time ,Amy your so chilled, so it turns out horrible boaters do exist...I mean were all a bit weird to want to live on these weird floaty things but thats just too too weird , lovely vlogging guys
Haha once a time is in his head that’s it 😂 Yeah unfortunately there’s some extra weird ones amongst us, not the good kind! But mostly the good kind ☺️
That is so funny that a huge wide beam moored by the cabin cruiser guy! What a strange man he was! You two pay your river and canal fee the same as he does so you’re just as entitled to be there as he was! Don’t let it bother you both, rise above it! Love your vlogs. X
Awesome episode🥰 So crazy how something so small like someone’s bad attitude can stick with you for the whole night… Like a negative UA-cam comment does too😂 But this is a positive one!! We get similar vibes when boats anchor too close to us and don’t care about potentially dragging your anchor along with theirs🥴 Hope you’re both having a lovely day tho and hope we see you soon!!❤
Thanks guys! ❤️ Oh god yeah 😩 mostly they don’t bother us but we’d be lying if we said they didn’t abit! Urgh I can imagine, and with the vast size differences of boats you can have on the ocean! thanks for the comment! Sending you the best weather wishes on your adventures ⛵️❤️
Well, I guess you can't be everyone's cup of tea. Love that they felt the need to leave😂😂😂😂. Don't let the jerks ruin your day,...they are definitely not worth it.
When he said it was too shallow there you guys should have asked to moor onto his boat!! lol...🤣😂P.S. His loss.. not yours. If you really think about it... his life is low vibe. You guys make friends, have amazing interactions and memorable experiences... that's what we are here for. 😉
Awww how awful you had to come across another person who thinks there better than you brush yourselves down chin up and smile we all the same we send hugs see next time 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
We had the same the other day 3 in a cruiser made us feel most uncomfortable and we got there first it is getting worse and lots of people are saying the same. We can’t give in to them and let them dictate what we do though but we are older than you it isn’t as easy at you age. Take care xx
Yes it can be strange with mini Gin Palaces! I have been asked to move because they needed a mooring, or they have said said that Narrowboats shouldn't be allowed where cruisers are! I didn't care then and don't care now, first come first served for moorings
that was strange I have what they call a teardrop camper and that same thing happens sometimes when I park beside a large caravans not very much most people are very friendly and normally interested in how small it is lol cya next week
Whenever I see someone like that I assume they're worried about our strong steel boats damaging their plastic ones. I cannot confirm whether I have maneuvered very close to their boats when moving on when they do that 😊
Don't worry about snooty people like that. He's only got a small one. Canal boaters have all got big ones. He is trying to be Captain Pugwash of the rivers.
There's clearly a super snooty attitude from some cruiser yachts on the river towards canal narrowboats. And it is Windsor, so you can add in an extra 10% twatteroony factor. I know the temptation would be to tell them to go forth, but I think you handled it admiral-y (see what I did there), and showed the world who the real BIG BABIES are.
I would have moored up !!!! And when he moved off I would have done the cheerio cheerio cheerio chant Would have made my whole year !!!! I just shown this vlog to me wife she said “you would have moored up “ o yes replied
Hay you two, don’t be so sad about other idiots, your a lovely pair of kiddies that make me 🤣& that’s what matters because there’s more kind humans than there are di-k heads like them, just smile at them & hold your head up high to the world ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ X X X X X X loving what you pair get up to 👍🏻
Dont worry about that guy, whats he got that you havent?? Hes a snob and you dont need those types who think they are better than others. Good ridance to them and you enjoy your space which you are entitled to with your narrow boat 🎉. Take card and stay safe. What a day you had, fresh start tomorrow xx🙋🛥️❤️👩❤️💋👨
People sure do find a lot of stupid reasons to hate each other. There are like 10,000,000 things you all have in common boating on the Thames but NOOOOO...the material your boat is made of is the ONLY thing that's important!
Some people think they are better than others and judge livaboards as what they think gypsies are. It’s their loss and they are missing meeting a group of great people.
Your thumbnail picture is deeply disturbing! 😅😆 As for the posh boater with the bad attitude towards narrow boaters we sometimes get the same reaction from shiny white motorhomers when we rock up in our big truck! We’ve even had one tell us we won’t fit, then when I parked just fine he said that the police will turn up and move us on for being too big, then he moved on himself when we ignored him and clearly weren’t phased by what he said. Some people are just weird and snobby.
I'd much rather deal with narrow boaters, such a lovely friendly community (from my experience on my sister's boat on the staffordshire and Worcestershire canals anyway) - don't know who these Thames river boaters think they are with their inflated egos!
Well done for not allowing this rude behavior stop you from mooring up that behavior says more about that arrogance than you both as a couple do enjoy the videos most entertaining lol😁😁😁😁😁
Cabin cruiser guy was obviously obsessive compulsive about fiberglass hull vs steel hull. Fiberglass hulls do tend to crack like an egg if you hit anything with them .He should buy a narrow boat before he has a nervous break down .I think he’d feel safer in a steel hull boat .
We understand this and are always extra careful, but he even had a problem when the wide beam was already moored up and not even moving so don’t think that was his worry!
Lets all cheers our chips to being a smelly narrowboater! 🤣🍟 cheers!
I wouldn't worry about people like that. You've got a right to be on the river just as much as anyone else so don't worry about people like that 😊 carry on cruising boat time❤
100%! Thank you ☺️ 💪🏻 we will keep on cruising!

He was trying everything he could 😂
Thank you guys ❤️
I call that just desserts..lol
Fibreglass boats are quite delicate believe it or not and they get very nervous around steel boats. This is why they are also called yoghurt pots
You guys are great, don’t change, you will always meet people like that 😂😂 xx
haha aw thank you! Don't worry we aren't planning on changing any time soon! 🤭
We have so many of those cabin cruiser boats in the US that I don't even take notice of them. Now, if we saw your narrow boat cruising around my lake, you'd be the hit of the party!

I love that your upset faces retain twinkles of a smile through what was evidently a day when everything fell apart. Sending you both love for holding the frequency.
Yeah we were laughing and we’re generally it didn’t bother us but we’d be lying if it didn’t upset us a lil bit!
Thank you ❤️
How cool to just moor up on a random Friday night and eat a maccies outside Windsor Castle 😂. Love the vlogs guys ❤
Haha yeah we had to sit right outside the castle to eat it! Great spot 😂 thank you! ❤️
Oh my that guy really was a horrible snob! Don’t let the snobs ruin your good time they are not worth it! You are kind and funny people and I love watching your videos! ❤❤❤❤

It's a gorgeous river this time of year but sometimes really chaotic. Looks lovely around there. Looking forward to it. 👍👍
Hate the snobbery some boaters have!!! I own a 1979 JGM 27ft boat,
I also get a lot of 'don't look and we won't see him' attitude from narrowboaters when I wave to them
Their attitude stunk so much I couldn’t even smell the narrowboat. 😂

Loving your adventures, keep them coming.🤗
How sad was he! 😂 you should’ve waved him goodbye 🤣🤣🤣🤣 some people eh!! Sending you a hug xx
We all love you guys and narrowboaters, cheers to narrow minded people moving away from narrow boaters 😅
I had chips for lunch yesterday and raised one in cheers to you 😂 thank you, you brighten my day x
Yaaay! Cheers 🍟😂
Omg the thumbnail killed me 😆
I was laughing along about the boater situation.
👍🏼
I am thrilled I found your channel. You guys are awesome!
Welcome ☺️👋🏻 thank you so much
I live on my cruiser and love narrowboaters as we are all one big floating family. :)
We agree! ☺️ all boaters have to stick together, shame this guy didn’t think so but oh well haha!
Your faces with those mocktails 🍹 😂 xx
Apparently not a fan of aperol spritz (alcohol free) 😂😂
Haha love how you tapped the cupboard door 😂😂
🤫 not today doom cupboard, not today haha!
love a mini cruise, I can relate to Wes...I panic if I know we have to go by a certain time ,Amy your so chilled, so it turns out horrible boaters do exist...I mean were all a bit weird to want to live on these weird floaty things but thats just too too weird , lovely vlogging guys
Haha once a time is in his head that’s it 😂
Yeah unfortunately there’s some extra weird ones amongst us, not the good kind! But mostly the good kind ☺️
Never mind. You guys are lovely!!! That guy was obviously majorly insecure!!! I'd be over the moon to moor next to you guys!!! :)
Very odd behaviour from that guy! Giggles throughout this vlog though, the rope muss, the rush to leave, the mocktails 😂😂
Hahahaha, so glad that wide beam got in!
They were great on there too, a proper laugh 😂
I thrive off people like that I'll wind them up even more 😂😂😂
Nice job filming Mr and Mrs Grumpy too I laughed loads
haha we even sat on a bench to watch 🤣 what a strange man!
Some people are so far up there own xxxx. Glad you guys were able to moor on the other side.
Hahaha, that was hilarious. Bizarre, but hilarious
When that happens i always think , ok, time for a block party. Lol
That is so funny that a huge wide beam moored by the cabin cruiser guy! What a strange man he was! You two pay your river and canal fee the same as he does so you’re just as entitled to be there as he was! Don’t let it bother you both, rise above it! Love your vlogs. X

thanks for the comment! Sending you the best weather wishes on your adventures ⛵️❤️
They live in a very small 🌎,but you both know the 🌎 is amazing and you are all going to live happier because you know the best humans .👋🤗☘️💚
Well that guy is baffling! Some folks are just plain odd.
Well, I guess you can't be everyone's cup of tea. Love that they felt the need to leave😂😂😂😂. Don't let the jerks ruin your day,...they are definitely not worth it.
I’d make it my mission to follow him and moor up near him again and again! A very sad individual ❤😂
Keep up the good work and enjoy 😊
i personally love narrow boaters
You should of stayed there and got the Kondor out.🤣 xxxx
Oh !brilliant -that’s the best laugh this week 😂As a fellow sufferer l hand it to you Buddies 👍
Haha thank you! 😅👍🏻
When he said it was too shallow there you guys should have asked to moor onto his boat!! lol...🤣😂P.S. His loss.. not yours. If you really think about it... his life is low vibe. You guys make friends, have amazing interactions and memorable experiences... that's what we are here for. 😉
Just love your posts/blogs/blogs. Whatever they are called. Are you going to Vegan Camp Out this year?
9:08 - Well, look at you. Vegan options and actual tomatoes on McD food. That is fancy.
Love you two so very much xxxxx ❤❤
Awww how awful you had to come across another person who thinks there better than you brush yourselves down chin up and smile we all the same we send hugs see next time 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
What the hell, some people just get a kick out of causing trouble, must be a hobby. 🤔😂
Just walk around outside with your battery drill revving it and pointing at his boat.😂
It’s a shame that some people are so snobby that they can’t get on with other boaters. Oh well don’t take it personally 😊Take care. Nick
We had the same the other day 3 in a cruiser made us feel most uncomfortable and we got there first it is getting worse and lots of people are saying the same. We can’t give in to them and let them dictate what we do though but we are older than you it isn’t as easy at you age. Take care xx
I bet the guy was wishing he didn't say anything to you, but you moved your boat and he got double the size boat 😂😂
😂😂 serves him right!!
@@BoatTime only until dark
Hope he’s going fishing
That’s too bad
🤣🤣
I love being a crusty boater. X
Cheers to that! 😂
Big love to the smelly narrow boaters 😍👏🏻
Haha! Cheers to that! 🤭🤫
Can I ask have you got any vids on when you were on the river crusing please
Nowt so weird as folk ! Just have a giggle😂
I know right?! 🤣
Yes it can be strange with mini Gin Palaces! I have been asked to move because they needed a mooring, or they have said said that Narrowboats shouldn't be allowed where cruisers are! I didn't care then and don't care now, first come first served for moorings
I know that you were planning to go up the Wey ,just be aware that Papercourt lock is closed at the moment undergoing emergency repairs.
that was strange I have what they call a teardrop camper and that same thing happens sometimes when I park beside a large caravans not very much most people are very friendly and normally interested in how small it is lol cya next week
No way! We’ve seen the teardrop campers and they look amazing! Way cooler 😉
Whenever I see someone like that I assume they're worried about our strong steel boats damaging their plastic ones.
I cannot confirm whether I have maneuvered very close to their boats when moving on when they do that 😊
Don't worry about snooty people like that. He's only got a small one. Canal boaters have all got big ones. He is trying to be Captain Pugwash of the rivers.
We get that when some people see we have greyhounds .😁
What 😮 greyhounds are soo cute and they just sleep haha! 😩

Man needs to go pay for a private mooring someplace if he doesn’t like narrowboaters near him. 🤣😂🙋🏼♀️
🤣 he probably has one and we ruined his weekend away! oh well 🤭
How odd! If he only knew that you two have over 10,000 people who would gladly be moored next to you! 😆
Aww 🥹❤️ thank you!!
Oh, you met a River Tosser. You don’t see them often but they do come out from time to time
Snobbery on the water, eh? 🤣 I pity him.
That is hilarious! What is wrong with people
😂🤦🏻♀️ right?!
❤❤❤
I would have moored up !!!! And when he moved off I would have done the cheerio cheerio cheerio chant Would have made my whole year !!!! I just shown this vlog to me wife she said “you would have moored up “ o yes replied

There certainly are!! Thank you so much! ❤️☺️ we won’t let them get us down don’t worry!
I would of waved him off too 👋🏻 👋🏻 😂🎉😂
Their loss, they missed out on having wonderful neighbours for a day or two.

Good see you guys see funny side of it make fun of it
Some people think they are better than others and judge livaboards as what they think gypsies are. It’s their loss and they are missing meeting a group of great people.
Your thumbnail picture is deeply disturbing! 😅😆
As for the posh boater with the bad attitude towards narrow boaters we sometimes get the same reaction from shiny white motorhomers when we rock up in our big truck! We’ve even had one tell us we won’t fit, then when I parked just fine he said that the police will turn up and move us on for being too big, then he moved on himself when we ignored him and clearly weren’t phased by what he said. Some people are just weird and snobby.
Oh please if u see him further on in your travels moor up next to him. 😂
I would of shouted to him as he was leaving if its ok to take their ticket seen as they wont be needing it.
The world is full of knobs, surround yourself with smelly narrowboaters and you won't notice them. #proudtobesmelly
I'd much rather deal with narrow boaters, such a lovely friendly community (from my experience on my sister's boat on the staffordshire and Worcestershire canals anyway) - don't know who these Thames river boaters think they are with their inflated egos!
You should off pinched his mooring when he was leaving he would of blew his lid :)
😂 he was off so fast
Not all Shetland boaters are like that!
R.
From an outside view from America, maybe they see you as Gypsy's? I think boating life looks fun.
Well done for not allowing this rude behavior stop you from mooring up that behavior says more about that arrogance than you both as a couple do enjoy the videos most entertaining lol😁😁😁😁😁
Cabin cruiser guy was obviously obsessive compulsive about fiberglass hull vs steel hull. Fiberglass hulls do tend to crack like an egg if you hit anything with them .He should buy a narrow boat before he has a nervous break down .I think he’d feel safer in a steel hull boat .
The people may have been worried about a steel boat hitting their plastic boat.
We understand this and are always extra careful, but he even had a problem when the wide beam was already moored up and not even moving so don’t think that was his worry!
