31. What's wrong now? A look back at my first year of boat ownership.

In this video I look back at my first year of boat ownership, having regard to things that have gone wrong or haven’t gone right. Whilst nothing major befell me, there were quite a number of smaller incidents throughout the year that kept me busy. I also ensured that the items recommended by the surveyor were attended to. I discuss the survey; the move to Yelvertoft Marina; renewing the side hatch door inserts; faults with the shower; the hot water supply; the electrics; getting the boat blacked; cleaning the water tank (not a very pleasant task); painting the boat; the weed hatch and much more.

I have illustrated throughout with pictures and video clips and hopefully given an insight into how to go about certain tasks. It should appeal to anyone interested in boating, particularly someone considering purchasing a narrowboat. It is longer than many of my videos at 32 minutes but has needed to be, to ensure everything is covered.

I have put links below to the videos mentioned:
