Do Your Friends RESENT You? | Casting Off with Followtheboat 014 Locations
followtheboat
We've been blogging, vlogging and podcasting about living on our boat since 2005. If you love travel, sailing, fishing, diving and photography this might be the channel for you... Each week we post a 15-20 minute snapshot of what we did. It might cover anything from sailing, travelling, meeting people, fishing, cooking, shopping in exotic markets or hanging out on a tropical beach, to boat maintenance (there's a lot of that when you live on a boat) and tackling challenges or bureaucratic conundrums. There's also a fair bit of photography and diving. Even though the world continues to throw spanners at us, we love being perpetual travellers. And we've never regretted making the big leap into this alternative lifestyle for even a nanosecond. If we make you laugh or inspire you, then these videos haven't been a total waste of time. Pop round to the pub and share a drink with us... https://followtheboat.com/pub/ Jamie and Liz xx

Making Cruising Plans on a Blustery Day | EPISODE 400!🎉
While hunkered down on the canal in the rain, we take a look back at a few of our moments aboard our sailboat and compare it to life now. There are similarities, not least the weather (yep, even on a canal boat we have to be mindful of the winds), but what...
A canal-side village of forgotten shipyards & ancient landscapes | Ep 399
Ever sped past a quiet town like Thorne on the motorway, oblivious to the incredible secrets it holds? We uncover layers of forgotten history, from a crucial boat-building legacy just yards from our Staniland Marina mooring, to the remains of a medieval mo...
Is off-grid mooring the last freedom? (Life on the riverbank) | Ep 398
One of the last places you'll find genuine freedom in the UK is off-grid mooring on the canals and rivers. And if you choose a secluded spot like the winding hole on the Keadby and Stainforth canal, you can escape the rat-race and slow down to immerse you...
We screwed up on New Junction Canal (big boats and movable bridges) Ep397
When we screw up, we're never shy to admit it. We all make mistakes and this is especially true when learning, so this episode is the perfect opportunity to introduce you to all the bridges, locks and aqueducts on the New Junction Canal, and where we went ...
We Lost Control of our Boat in Gale Force Crosswinds | Ep 396
We lost control of our widebeam canal boat in a gale in England. Who said strong winds were the preserve of sailors? It turns out that the "wrong" wind can affect canal boats as much as sailing boats. It was Marley-the-dog's first trip, so how did he do?...
