In which I go and have a good look around another boat with an unusual drive train.

Vlog 69: Silent Running

With many thanks to Alan and Wendy for letting me on board, this is another video where I peek into other boaters' craft - but also, this particular narrowboat has a fairly rare type of engine set up, being a hybrid diesel-electric.

We are Bob & Jane Fulton, sailboat live-aboard yanks who also fancy narrowboating. For this purpose we have visited the UK on a biennial basis since 2005 qnd look forward to FINALLY crossing the Pontcysyllte Viaduct this coming May. We will also be shopping narrowboats then, hoping to soon be spending six months a year on the cut. You can learn a bit about us at www/sailblogs/com/member/voyageur . Since pledging $5.00 per month, we have come to enjoy your vlogs very much, as much for their style as for their content. We watch and enjoy them over and over and have shared them with many friends of ours, two of whom have tried narrowboating since. So here it is. We would rather increase our monthly pledge than pay for your vlogs on a pay per play basis. If you feel pressured to produce additional chapters for your informative and entertaining vlog, we encourage you not to. Publish at your pace, by all means. We subscribed with no expectation as to quantity. It was you quality, as I said above, that drew us into the fold. Hope to see you on the cut !

Hello Bob and Jane. Thank you so much for your encouraging and positive words. I'm pleased the videos are enjoyable and useful. I've had so much good feedback about the "pay monthly" system and that people think I shouldn't worry about it or feel pressured, that I'm going to leave things as they are for the moment. Cheers!
