16 Day | 160km Solo Adventure in DIY Canoe | Ep 3
Undertaking an adventure in a DIY canoe with no experience, little budget and a mad spaniel in tow. Thing's get... dodgy.
#expidition #canoe
Jacob is weird. A self confessed oddball who continuously takes on projects that most wouldn't go near. Building a tiny house cabin, a dutch barge boat and all manner of wacky bits and bobs. To reiterate, Jacob is weird... but weird is fun.
Some Info about the things in this film:
1. Plans for this canoe are available online, it's called the "quick canoe 155". And if you are more competent than me (or can make things inside) then I would say it really is quick!
2. Men. Check your balls! Testicular cancer is usually a young mans cancer, so feel away. www.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-i...

Your cinematography, musical choices and transitions are wonderful. This Anglophile is living vicariously through you.

Aww how lovely! Feel free to keep living through me! (Maybe just the nice bits, not when I stop from exhaustion)
your enthusiasm for challenging yourself in these creative ventures is absolutely contagious ! thank you for sharing 🎉

You will improve with time. If you run out of rivers to row there, you can come to the states we have lots of them,
Again: such riveting storytelling!!! I was soooo invested as you stopped that day because of exhaustion (which I believe to be 100% the right call) I was also right there with you and totally excited (and maybe just a little bit worried for Muddy, hahahah) when you went through the rapids. I am celebrating your triumphs along with you, and thanks for taking us along 🎉

He didn't know what hit him, he tried to look back at me but then realised it was too perilous and he had to keep his eyes on what might be coming 😅 Best boat dog! Thanks for commenting and I'm glad you enjoyed it
Great to see you back on the channel !
Wonderful gentle viewing.
Congratulations on making your own boat then going on an adventure with it. I'm enjoying the trip and laughing along with you and Muddy. Thanks.

Either that or desperately wanting to get to the finish line and ge the hell out of there 😅
Congratulations on the rapid run!! One wee in the boat is not so bad for several days …. I think Muddy is a very fine boater. I am looking forward to the next episode! Bright blessings and Safe travels ❤

You too mate!
Awesome!
😂😅 poor muddy😳, when the little swell hit muddy sideways the look upon his little face was more like what the hell was that 😅😊. Jacob as for your comment about the canoe being one sided with the weight I burst out laughing, surely you have more room to manoeuvre now unless you had the replacement glass one installed in your never regions 😅😂🤪. I'd love to have been a fly on the wall when you was talking to your boss about not being back ontime 🤣😂. Remember try not to sink HMS OBH your going to be needing it to reach your destination!!!

I decided not to have a replacement one but you are right! I never thought about the extra space, plus I imagine i'm slightly lighter now, more nimble 😅
EXCELLENT VID DUDE!

Cheers mate!
I'm suprised to see you beating yourself up about having a rest , normally i allow a reset day ever week when on long trips and your certainly look like you had a bad sleep and a bad day when you woke up. a well deserved rest

You are right, stopping was actually a positive thing as it allowed me to have the wonderful following day
Are you wondering? You name your dog Muddy and are you really surprised that he messes up your boat and you? This is his revenge! Clearly! 🤣🤣

This is very true 😅
May want to try to keep your lower arm straight (like an oar lock). Believe you’ll find your arms hurt less. Just a suggestion. Waiting for your next episode.

You are correct! I would love to get my stroke better for my next adventure. I went through phases of locking my arm more but in general I think it was all over the place 😂

@@JacobHarrell Also be sure to bring sun glasses and a bunji to keep you from losing them. UV light reflects off the water and will give your eyes sun burn. Experienced that the wrong way canoeing 150 miles (oh and the arm thing learned that there as well). Also remember you can stay under your boat on the shore during a hail storm. Doing what you are doing is an adventure that you will remember the rest of your life.
artlist audio at 3:14 guess the music is from there.
