  • description: 🎉 Don’t forget if you want to try YFood for the first time with 20% off for the next 3 days use the code: https://bit.ly/NarrowBoatPirate_yfood_allproducts After five months trapped on the river, I’m finally back on the narrow canals — and honestly, it feels amazing! This week I set off solo on my new boat, tackling my first lock of the day and chatting about how it feels to be cruising properly again after such a long watery confinement. But canals aren’t rivers… they’re much narrower, shallower, and apparently full of trees waiting to smack you in the face. After single-handing my first lock, Gabby joins me onboard and we work together through the next few. A huge thank you to the lovely viewer who gifted us walkie-talkies — they were absolute lifesavers! Just when things were going smoothly, we get walloped by a low branch that sends everything flying… classic pirate chaos. We moor up for the night in a beautiful spot on the Middlewich Branch before heading to Venetian Marina the next morning for diesel and a well-earned late lunch at Taylors Tearooms. Gabby takes the tiller (and does brilliantly)… while I, on the other hand, manage an almighty bang against a narrowing in an old bridge hole. Oops. Join us for laughter, lock teamwork, tree battles, and big booms as we continue the adventure! ------------ Thank you so much for watching. If you are new here, I'm Heidi and I live aboard my Narrowboat The Jolly Roger and travel the UK's Canals in search of Adventure. After selling my house to experience an alternative lifestyle I bought a canal boat and a camper van which as a solo female who loves to travel, gives me the best of both worlds. I have recently got myself a new addition to the crew, a fabulous companion - my little rescue dog Bonny who is an absolute joy and the perfect First Mate. I also work full time off grid from my floating home making badges and trading at canal festivals as The Narrowboat Pirate aboard The Pirate Boat. ----------- For more info such as Filming Equipment, FAQ and more: 🏴‍☠️ https://thepirateboat.co.uk 🏴‍☠️ ------------- You can also follow my adventures as the Narrowboat Pirate aboard The Jolly Roger, Pirate Boat here: 🟦 Facebook - https://facebook.com/thenarrowboatpirate 🟥 Instagram - https://instagram.com/thenarrowboatpirate ⬛️ Website - https://thepirateboat.co.uk ------------- 🎵 Music 🎹 The Jolly Roger by Heidi Manning Tickling my Tiller by Heidi Manning Bonny the Brave by Heidi Manning The Thrusting Cutlass by Heidi Manning ------------ 🥃 If you would like to buy me a Rum you can do here : https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thepirateboat/ ------------- 🅿️ Alternative way to buy a virtual Rum via Paypal : https://PayPal.me/TheNarrowboatPirate/ ------------- ❤️ Become a Patreon and long term supporter on the channel: The Narrowboat Pirate https://www.patreon.com/TheNarrowboatPirate ------------- #Narrowboat #canalboat #boatlife #singlehandedsailing #Canallock #tinyhome #offgrid #travelvlog
