Installing 12v lights whilst OUT CRUISING the CANALS over the Bank Holiday Weekend

We were in a DILEMA....
It was approaching bank holiday weekend (an extra day off work!) and we have LOADS to do on the boat - BUT we wanted to go out and play... So what should we do?
Yes - that's right, do BOTH!
So we untied from our moorings and headed off down the canals and rivers... BUT it wasn't all playtime as we NEEDED to do some jobs - the main one being install some 12v lights so we could see in the boat after dark.
So in this video (part one of the weekend away) we head out, have a chat about 'plans' - or lack of them! and do a bit of wiring!

Here's a bit about us and our boats...
In August 2019 we bought narrowboat - a 1980s Springer that's 36ft long and had previously been sunk twice prior to us purchasing it! It's engine was rather poorly so we took it out and fitted a DIY self build Electric Drive system - which we recorded and made vlogs about (available to view on YouTube).
Move forward a year from buying that boat and we were loving life on the water so much we wanted a bigger boat so we could move aboard full time.
So we bought 'Lyanda Lady' a 50ft boat that needed a LOT of work. This series is following us stripping the boat right back to a basic shell. It will then be time to completely re build the boat before moving aboard.
Just to add to the fun I'm a Tight Yorkshireman, and we are working with a small budget - hence Boating On A Budget!
Come along and join us on what promises to be a epic adventure!
