- Watch my Narrowboat transform! Transformation of the boat exterior, interior engine bay.
The Journey started here... I once lived in the fast lane of life, happily married of 26 years, with two children. That chapter was suddenly shattered by the sudden loss of my wife to cancer, which led me in to depression and homelessness. Waking up in hospital, after attempting to take my own life, with just a suitcase, kayak and bicycle and no money, I've managed to rise up out of the darkness and find happiness and continue my next chapter.
I'm a self taught film maker, and creating these vlogs, it gives me something to do, share my personal experiences as I continue my journey cruising and living life on the canal. Please do consider supporting my channel below... Thank you Dave

You have a lovely cosy (and nice & tidy) home, she rewards you by peace and happiness because of your kindness to rejuvenate her, inspirational.
🙏
Wow! You've done a beautiful job making a home out of a shell. My wife talked and talked about your channel and your lovely boat. I'm glad I finally took the time to watch some videos when I had time to actually take it all in. Thanks for sharing.
A beautiful narrow boat 🌱🌼
You really can feel the tranquillity and connection between you and your boat. What a fantastic space you have created.
🙏
I loved seeing this origin story of your boat, thank you for sharing how much work went into it
I'm glad you enjoyed it Kyla , it was a big job, but the reward was great 🙏 Dave

I can identify with forgetting to eat or not wanting to stop to eat. I first experienced it at age ten when I got my first, basic set of oil paints, brushes and a few canvas boards. I'd be inspired to paint a particular subject or image that had come to me in the night and would be annoyed at the idea of stopping for anything but a loo break. I look back now, 60 years later, and am amazed that I had such a drive at such an early age! (And I can remember my pediatrician scolding my mother and saying I wasn't getting enough to eat!) I had forgotten all about this memory until you mentioned your weight loss while you were reconditioning and painting the outside of the Isness. 🥰
Ditto... I got my first oil paints in my early teens and would paint early hours of the morning too. I was too inspired and forgot about food and sleep! 🙏
Nameste Dave,
As I have watched your first handful of vlogs what you say is true, you are having an impact on others. Your boat has transformed into something beautiful and almost a life of its own. It is the only vlog I watch where when I am done, I feel relaxed, at peace, and a petter person for spending my time with you. So thank you for that, great vlog, great job.
Michael
🙏
What a lovely bat you have - justly proud
Thank you David 🙏
It is indeed a beautiful boat and home.
🙏
You have echoed my sentiments exactly! You have a beautiful home Dave! Thanks for sharing…👍
☺
Hi Dave, I’ve only just recently found your channel, and what a beautiful find I have discovered. I watch it every day, so peaceful. Your skills in relaying the serenity of the canals is a masterclass in how to find solitude and peace. Thank You.
🙏 Thank you David 🙏
I enjoy your calming vlogs, and I love how you have transformed your tired boat into a young and beautiful butterfly. Well done, and good luck :-)
Thank you for your kind words and connecting 🙏
You put a lot of work into your boat and she is lovely. I like all the plants jnside too, just makes it more homey.
Thank you 🙏
I love the colors you chose. They’re very unique. ❣️❣️
🙏
You have such a beautiful home so stunning loved seeing it in the evening with all the candles so relaxing x
💜💙💚💛🧡❤ Very nice and beautiful your boat. Greetings from Dani and Mira from Munich Germany
Metamorphosis thru passion and love...not just a narrowboat, but a lovely home in tune with nature...you transformed her, and in return, she transformed you...
Thank you Annick 🙏
So, so inspirational, thank you so much. Damien
👍🏼
Abdolutely fantastic, my boat is 70 years and just love her and the history of her past
If I bought that boat tomorrow, I wouldn't change one thing. Not even the window coverings. Assuming it came with everything which I know would never happen. I'm just saying that I love it!
🙏
I love the colour green you have chosen , fits in so well with nature. I love the fact that green is the middle of the rainbow and is such a balancing calming colour.
Having seen your boat up close, I have to say, I thought it had been done professionally. You've done an amazing job and personally, I love the colour.
I think one day, I may need to repaint mine (keeping a similar colour), so I now know who to turn to for advice 😉.
Well done Dave, the boat looks amazing inside and out. 👍👍👍
Thank you 🙏
You've made a lovely home... And done it really well 👍🏼
🙏 Thank you
I love the spring green color you choose for the exterior. It reminds me of the color of the trees in early spring, so bright and vibrant!
Dave, you did such a wonderful job of transforming this boat into something so beautiful. I love the exterior color scheme, especially being that green is my favorite color, and your decorative touches on the interior really transformed this boat into an Oh, so cozy home. Well done, your efforts will shine for many years to come and I believe, have inspired more than a few owners, to spruce up their own boats.
🙏 Thank you for your kind words and connecting 🙏
You can see it was a labour of love and passion. Stunning paint work love the colours .Thank you for sharing.
🙏
This video sees you for what you truly are, a creative mind connecting with the world. Together we work well.
Well done what a transformation she is beautiful 😍
🙏
I painted my boat last heat wave and I lost loads of weight. My alternator went after I bought it. You've done a lovely job.
How interesting to see the transformation of the isness. I enjoyed it.
🙏
Love, it's wonderful. Goes to show you, everything can be saved,
🙏
You’ve done a great job.
You are an absolute inspiration sir! Well done, and good luck in your continued adventure :-)
Thank you kindly!
WoW. I take my hat of to your Sir! Wonderful dedication and hard work. Really paid off 🙏🏻
🙏 Thank you
Watch more of my beautiful experiences as a boater in my vlog playlist. ua-cam.com/play/PLTjTsf74sEbhYcXkl-B1n5X8WqIszCeR5.html
Totally absorbing thank you
🙏
Congrats and well done!
A spectacular job! Particularly impressive exterior panel painting; a tricky taping job.
Glad you kept wood finish above the gunwales inside it looks so warm and natural, like a Turner sunset.
Incidentally, if you put amazon links to the products you used in your renovation you could set yourself up to get revenue for each purchase.
Thank you Steve 🙏 Turner one of my favourite artists. 🙏

Hi Dave, I so enjoyed this Vlog once again. It really is such a wonderful space and environment to live in...You should be so proud. I also find you a very inspiring man when it comes to finding peace within. Always a pleasure to watch, and listen to.
I came across this Vlog once again while searching for one of your Vlogs which starts with you using a spray to clean Isness. Would you be kind enough to remind me of what that product was? I am new to boating and very conscious of what I am actually using when it comes to cleaning, and also my personal care products, in order to care for the environment.....Thank you kindly
Very motivating, Dave and what a great job you did both exterior and interior. Like you, I’m planning to get my engine room done first, just deciding on the colour.
I believe its good to keep the engine bay a light colour such as grey. More light then easy to see components, such as wires or pipes around the engine. You can then easily spot oil leaks or other liquids too. Good luck 🙏
Thank you Dave, agreed a light colour is best for the reasons you suggest. When I was at sea on oil tankers, machinery was very light green and bilges and bulkheads white. So I thought very light green or white. (My Beta engine is red). Good to see your subs gradually increasing.
Great vlog! Engine bay came up fantastic... on my list of things to do once i can get to the boat :(
Thank you for tuning into my vlogs 🙏
WOW, what a project but one that you got through and what a sense of achievement.... did you get a survey done before purchasing ? My husband and I will be looking for a boat this year and there is a lot to know beforehand!! Well done for making the boat yours and how you wanted it to look and to feel... xx
🙏 Thank you 🙏
I really wanted to see the bedroom! Did you say bedrooms??? I guess there's only space for one but I know nothing of narrow boats.
Akso, As I'm new to the chanel, where could I learn more about you - how you got to where you are. How do you sustain yourself financially; what food do you like. Sorry - not being nosey; just interested.
Thank you for tuning into my channel and watching. Many questions! I'm now contemplating on doing a 'live' stream Q&A. However, you can find out lots about me through my previous episodes. 😉 A tour inside my boat will be happening soon, too, after I've finished decorating! 🙏 Dave
Why did you call it isness?
Thank you for your question. 🙏 On my journey of self discovery and the greatness I get from connecting with nature, I came across the word isness and its meaning. 🙏
isness, meaning....
The ability to live in a world of "what is". Presence, Living in the now. 🙏 ♥
@@inspiredbynature3 Isness Sounds lovely! Living in the moment.
