No, they are not seaworthy.

@@ladygardener100 They can, and do, use and cross rivers a lot. Thames, Hull, York and many more.

Thank you for your comment, we're glad you're enjoying the videos :)

I appreciate that!

I don't remember the builders now but if you visit New & USed Boat Co I'm sure you'll find more information on them if you are interested. Thank you for watching ang glad you enjoy our vlogs.

Thanks so much!

Yes I think it is a tad more difficult, but they are out there 😃

Yes, I believe that is right 👍

Yes I guess it depends on the needs of the buyer really.

If you don't have kids then you don't need bunk beds for kids.

Some are craxy money, but i guess house prices have done the same

Absolutely, narrowboat for cruising all day, but, when you're done with that I can see the appeal of a widebeam too.

Absolutely, its just an alternative thats all.

They are a lot of money especially at the moment with the price of steel so high, I think people buy them because they want to be near/on water and have an alternative lifestyle without giving up to much space ☺️

There are circumstances where having a property is inappropriate People have individual circumstances that mean having a traceable property is not a viable domestic situation. No doubt that a property is the ideal solution especially from a capital gain perspective. But if you wish to be effectively untraceable then a boat tends to be the best solution. Bear in mind it take 6 years for CCJ to be Statute Barred from recovery and 12 years if mortgage debt. I believe it is 20 years for HMRC debt. So all good reasons not to have a property where charges can be applied to title deeds. Rarely will anyone be able to detect where you are or that you have a boat Just use a friend who gas a property and pretend to be lodgers Everything will go to that address but you will never be in! So as you can see not everyone is able to have a property even though one is affordable. Life can be complicated at times and you have to do things you wouldn't normally expect to have to do. That being said the prospect of life on a widebeam boat is not an unattractive proposition. I've lived in a house and the only knew about 3 neighbours. By all accounts the boating community is a genuine thing and can apparently be very amenable You should get to know more than 3 people! Widebeam CC does seem to restrict where you can go but still enables you to CC. Not a problem if you have no location based work commitments Boating to me makes for a far more interesting retirement. So personally I am looking forward to my enforced boating life!!

@@paulgbar666 Not an angle I had considered at all! A boat as a refuge in more ways than one.

@@dallassukerkin6878 Yes a sort of a medieval Sanctuary that churches were used as. You couldn't be touched at a church But yes there are all sorts of angles in this life. We all tend to consider not unaturally things through our own perspectives. Life though can be complicated resulting in things occurring that you wouldn't necessarily have considered. To me boating is a bit like the gypsy lifestyle. Consequently nobody tends to know who who are or where you are! I was watching a vlog where it seems if you have a wide beam that as part of the CRT boat licence you have to display your name etc at both ends of the boat. Not sure if I misheard that. But personally I won't comply!

Don't, just dont

Hi Adrian, the proces are on the screen at the beginning of each walk through.

I’m not sure of the percentage but I believe widebeams can use the south and north but not the midlands, if you pop the question into google it will bring up maps and you will be able to see exactly where widebeams can cruise 👍

Buy a boat with a smaller kitchen if that's what you want.

Many people love a bigger kitchen, all down to preference

I think it looks nice. Everyone is different so you don't need to understand anything mate 🤘🤘

Yeah cause Wallpaper is much better... NOT 🤭

At least you can take it off and burn it when you can’t stand it anymore.

I would not put laminate flooring on every wall space like the first boat. Too much for my taste. Here and there maybe but not everywhere.

They were both wide beam boats .
