SELLING UP! Why We're Selling Our Narrowboat. Ep. 170.

Find out why we're packing up and selling our narrowboat! Less than three years since we launched our narrowboat, Silver Fox, she's up for sale as we prepare for a new, exciting adventure!
In this episode we leave Crick behind and head towards North Kilworth, following the Leicester Line of the Grand Union Canal. Colin discovers the express boats from Fellows, Morton & Clayton, a hidden railway footpath, and the very tiny River Avon before we moor at North Kilworth Marina where Silver Fox is about to get some special treatment.

I won't sully the channel with specific examples, but the madness we are seeing in our world is really affecting people negatively. Many people are feeling hopeless and even believe the Apocalypse is here. Your videos provide escape from the insanity. No politics, no drama (except for when Otis goes overboard or a boat comes through your window), no analysis of the world's hatred or injustice. In addition to the scenery, history and banter, you provide safe haven, laughter and yes, even hope. Colin's courageous handling of his anxiety is inspiring and keeps my problems in perspective. Shaun's adventures with bowels crack my ribs! Silver Fox is just a boat. The main reasons we watch will also be on the new Silver Fox. Best of luck; looking forward to more voyages with you. Thanks for all you do!

Hi Colin and Shaun, I’m so glad to find out that you’ve sold Silver Fox and that you’re moving on to the next chapter of your journey. If only I’d had the money to buy it myself! The new owner is so fortunate to have such a wonderful, cherished boat. I can’t wait to see your new craft, especially as you’re building it based on your experiences and what you’ve discovered can be achieved in this type of vessel over the past few years. A good friend of mine’s sister (retired) has a huge wide berth and knows you two… that’s how I came to be introduced to your channel and your beautifully considered, filmed and edited videos. I’m not surprised at all that Amazon Prime took notice! Colin - I too suffer from the odd bout of deep depression and can fully sympathise with some of the challenges you sometimes face. If I ever feel sad and hopeless, I open YT, head to Foxes Afloat and you guys give me hope. Keep your chin up through the odd dark times and keep doing what you’re doing. Best wishes for the future. Dan.

I am sure there will be quite a range of emotions as you step into the change that occurs with doing that, but oh so much fun as you find out where to put things (again). How to use the new layout to your best advantage. Then there will always be the familiar, Shawn at the Tiller, Otis at your feet and you Colin narrating another adventure. I just love you guys so much and I always look forward to your vlogs. Thanks always for all that you guys do.

The Silver Fox is gorgeous without a doubt, but without the relationship between the two of you, it would just be another Narrowboat Vlog. You both have shared so much with us, through good and bad times, your laughter is infectious….in a good way 😊… and the research you share as well as your videography skills is what makes you so well respected and ❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🐾 Thank you, looking forward to more journeys.

I know it’s the people/animals not the home itself but I found myself getting emotional. When I found you guys I was in the worst place I have been in my life. The boat represented an escape, another world I could temporarily whisk away on (I would put the channel on and go to sleep hoping my dreams would take me there - somewhere wonderful instead of the dark places they had been taking me). Thanks to you guys and a few others I got thru it and am in such a good place comparatively speaking), but the boat was a large part of my ‘hanging on’. Imagining being on it and going all the places I dreamed was a huge part of my my salvation. I am totally happy & excited for you both (and Otis of course!) but it just marks another chapter. I am sorry to see it go but can’t wait to see the new boat and new adventures either. Congratulations!

A calendar with some of your photos on it plus past info of various places you sail through would be fantastic.....or even a book. Colin you are just a mine of information that should be shared with all of us.

Hi Colin & Shaun, so happy for you both that you've sold Silver Fox, all the very best in the next chapter of your journey. Going to miss your first Silver Fox narrowboat, it is such a beauty of a boat, but it can't compare to you guys and Otis. So glad you kept the name Silver Fox...it really suits you both, can't wait to see your new home! Thank you for sharing, take really good care of yourselves, stay safe. Please give Otis a cuddle for me. 💖 Much love Kathy x

Lovely video chaps. I am looking forward to seeing the new boat though slightly sad to see Silverfox go but she will hopefully be loved by her new owner. I look forward to your Friday videos - they really cheer me up after a busy week.
