Robbie seems to have taken some of that BBC level production value and rubbed it into his YouTube offering, as his videos are usually well put together and presented. Some recent highlights from Robbie were when he had an epic search to get coal and cooked up some of the weirdest looking chicken ever in the history of man □ I always find myself engrossed in all of his videos and never find myself counting down the minutes until the end! I can see why Robbie was selected for such a series, as he really does come across as a likeable and fun kinda guy! Somehow he makes the most mundane tasks on a boat seem fun and interesting. So far it has run for two series on BBC4, impressive stuff for anything narrow boat related. Robbie Cumming has been a major member of the ‘famous’ narrow boat celebrity scene for quite a while, thanks to him being behind the Canal boat Diaries series on the BBC. I just hope all this early success doesn’t go to their head and they keep doing what they are doing! Because this really is turning into a great narrowboat vlog! This is good going for such a new Youtube channel on narrowboating. Even after the channel was only four months old they were already up to over 7000 subscribers and getting 15000 views or more per video. And Ben is a Jeremy Irons lookalike, which doesn’t exactly hurt □Īnd it seems that I am not the only one liking their narrowboat vlogs. Ben and Emily engage in some very natural and unforced banter that just adds to the whole experience. Couple this with some brilliant editing and these Ben and Emily boating vlogs have become some of my favourite. With so many well-known narrowboat vloggers either hanging up their Youtube boots or going onto other subject matters, this new channel Ben and Emily have come along to save the day!īen is a musician, so their vlogs feature a lot of his music. If you are more interested in my favourite narrow boat blogs, I have another article on that too!!Īnyway, lets cut the chit-shat! Here are my favourite… 1. Most simply put a Patreon or Buy me a Coffee link in the video description and occasionally mention supporting the channel. A day doesn’t go past without me discovering a new and interesting narrow boat based Youtube channel.Īnd what I love about the Narrowboat Vloggers in this list is that they haven’t turned into aggressive E-Beggers, something that was a bit of an issue with some van lifers in America. With an unusually high energy yield due to excellent shadow tolerance and temperature stability, these panels give a good option for low narrowboat decks or hot motorhome roofs.The crazy rise in YouTube narrow boat Vloggers has shown me how big this current trend is for the narrow boat life! As I keep saying, it reminds me of the explosion in van life vloggers in America a few years back.
