VLOG 71, Narrowboat Fit Out - BIG CUPBOARDS for the Electrics, Coats and Stuff

Hello Everyone and welcome back. This week we get a start on the large cupboards as you enter the stern. A job that we didn't realise would take so long and would be a pain to get square and still match up with the Galley worktop and the door. Grandad bends himself into some strange positions to work in the awkward places. Hope you enjoy 👍

Great job guys. Just remember grandad. Pressure is for tyres. 😂

More impressive work, good old fashioned airing cupboard 😀 Another step closer. Cheers, Nigel

Well done grandad, good job you got all those cupboards right otherwise you would have been in the dog house 😂

[kevinmartin]

Uhhh, I don't comment on your channel much, , I just let you guys do your thing. Your boat is going to beautiful and unique! Lots of custom builders use fricking MDF. In a marine environment that will spell nothing but trouble in the future!

Another great vid. You're just making this up as you go along aren't you? Great editing and music. Stay well.

I know non of this fit-out is easy but, you do make it look so. I think you’re doing a fantastic job. It’s a shame you found out about the cabin sides are never straight until later on in your build. It’s so understandable when you’re told. Great to use a template. Again, common sense. But to gain common sense, you need experience which, you both have lots of now. I reckon your going to be a go too couple when you’re on the cut for people wanting advice. I’ll be asking if it goes wrong! Great airing cupboard.

Another load of jobs done to your usual very high standards. If he's getting stressed give him another cup of tea! Isn't it helpful to be told what you should have done afterwards, like those hull batterns. If that cupboard is for wet coats etc. as if I've understood you correctly it is, then those slats will let any surplus heat from the water heater dry them, a bonus.

[Polglen]

Nice to see how you did the slats. I've been thinking I might do that for my bed in my van. Thank you for your video.

I'm sitting here aching from having done a brake job on our car, and then I watch you bent down stuffed into that cabinet, and winced in sympathy.

Excellent work as usual.

Do you have a plan for lighting that area between the two cabinets? With the hatch and both doors closed, that area appeared rather dark.

Forgot to say enjoy the new music too!

You two make it look easy which I know it’s definitely not. I know the big companies have a control panel with the company name on it will yours have made by grandkids and nanny and grandad? Do you know yet when you might be finished? Do you plan on living in a marina or cruise full time? I will miss seeing the build but so looking forward to how it turns out I know it will look great and be beautiful! Can’t wait to next video. Susan
