    Wow in the UK even canals are dirty and meadows are ugly. What a lovely country to live in.

    He either has no kids or doesn’t care about them. Typical boomer with his rationalizing being self centered ego due to some made up mid life crisis excuse.

    Docking would be scary😳I don’t think understand how two boats can be so close together without being concerned, hulls and sides must be made of something which permits this.

    Great film! Great idea to live.
    Who the hell would give a thump down for this? 812 idiotic people must hate their life with hotel mommy so mutch, they can’t stand the idea of being happy and fullfilled by living like this!

    I stumbled onto David’s channel a few months ago. I have now watched all 175 videos so far, in order. Strangely, watching a single bloke puttering around at two MPH never gets boring. I am a 65 year old Australian widower, and I want to come to the UK after I sell MY house and potter around on the canals for a year or so myself, provided the Govt will let me. I’ve spent all my life on the highways here in Oz, driving huge B Double trucks and semis, at 100kmh ( 60 mph for you lot ), and the thought of wafting serenely along, taking my home with me, sounds blissfull.

    I highly recommend David’s Cruising the Cut channel for when life gets to be too fast.

    Contradiction, you said your boat is so warm in the winter you have your windows open , yet you have an electric radiator for emergency’s over winter. So it can’t be that warm then .

    Man I want one, you have wi-fi, a fireplace and the whole English countryside to cruise down as you wish, It’d be great sitting outside smoking a cigar and traveling through the countryside all day.

    Need to earn some money first or win the lottery.
