    I only caught the very start of what turned into a very ugly situation that left my boat mate, Millie and myself very shaken.
    I hope you enjoy today’s video.

    As a qualified seaman this is frustrating to watch. Great video and I have subscribed! Boat handling is so easy if you learn how to do it properly.

      He had angry small man syndrome, only spoke to me that once. My boat mate is a lot smaller than I but they left after he let rip.

    Hi Jonny, good evening, it’s 5:55am here on Monday and three degrees, I’m still tucked up in bed with the electric blanket on! Thank you for a rather serene video. Very relaxing after watching all the videos of Trump’s attempted assassination. It rained there! Well I never! Lol 😂. We have had some beautiful days here and have been able to sit outside the front door with the umbrella up and even complaining about the heat at one time. However, it starts getting cold about three o’clock. I’m glad that the angry boater just went away. Enough of my old man ramblings, have a good week. From Sydney Australia 🇦🇺

      Hey, the weather hasn’t been much better here considering it’s July, filming today and the sun actually got out and got warm but you’ll have to wait until next week. Considering what I do for a hobby it’s taken nearly two years before we had to encounter an angry situation. We are tough though and don’t suffer fools gladly. As for Trump, is he the new Vincent Van Gogh?

      @@jonnytreehouse most people on the Broads are there to have a good time. I’m not surprised that it’s taken so long to come across an angry creature! 😡. Whether Trump is the new Van Gogh we will just have to wait and see. It looked very pleasant there this weekend. I would have liked to be there. Instead, I’m listening to the rubbish trucks (lorries for you lol) rumbling up and down our street.

    So, are these considered narrowboats? They are obviously sized to avoid fixed obstructions but I have not seen these designs before.

    • @jonnytreehouse
      @jonnytreehouse  Місяць тому +1

      These are river cruisers, wider and taller than narrowboats.

      @@jonnytreehouse Our Great Loop waterway route is more permissive, with a 19’6” height above the waterline and length x beam of 85’ x 23’ to fit the locks en route. Some specific route choices are more restrictive but generally you can get all the way around with a 19’ air draft.

    Therein lies a lesson not to park your small boat next to a de-masting area! This waterway is full of hire boats and a bit of common sense is needed around these notorious spots.

      Pardon me, what is a demasting area? Is it where you drop the mast of a sailing vessel before going under that bridge?…that’s what my guess is…

From the second of leaving the harbour they should've recognized that this is a boat, not a car, like it takes patience n time to move it. It's so so much fun, if you just take your time.
