  • description: Our Scottish boating adventure continues as we leave Fort Augustus and make our way across the spectacular Caledonian Canal towards Neptune’s Staircase. But first, we’ve got the Fort Augustus staircase locks to tackle… and it turns out our rope-throwing skills could still do with a little work! 😂 Over the next few days, we cruise through the heart of the Scottish Highlands, spend our first night near the mysterious Well of the Seven Heads, cross the beautiful waters of Loch Oich and Loch Lochy, and cruise through the tree-lined Laggan Avenue. Gabby and I are taking it in turns to do everything — steering, ropes, locks and generally trying not to make complete idiots of ourselves — while the Scottish weather throws sunshine, rain and wind at us, sometimes within minutes of each other. Our ultimate goal is Neptune’s Staircase at the western end of the Caledonian Canal — the incredible flight of eight locks that raises and lowers boats around 19 metres (62 feet). And along the way there are legends, stunning scenery, a floating bar, plenty of laughs and a few boating mishaps. We hired our boat from Caley Cruisers, who have very kindly offered my viewers 10% off boat and houseboat bookings until 31st October 2027. Use promo code PIRATES2627 when booking. 🏴‍☠️ Heidi, Gabby & First Mate Bonny xx ------------ Thank you so much for watching. If you are new here, I'm Heidi and I live aboard my Narrowboat The Jolly Roger and travel the UK's Canals in search of Adventure. After selling my house to experience an alternative lifestyle I bought a canal boat and a camper van which as a solo female who loves to travel, gives me the best of both worlds. I have recently got myself a new addition to the crew, a fabulous companion - my little rescue dog Bonny who is an absolute joy and the perfect First Mate. I also work full time off grid from my floating home making badges and trading at canal festivals as The Narrowboat Pirate aboard The Pirate Boat. ----------- For more info such as Filming Equipment, FAQ and more: 🏴‍☠️ https://thepirateboat.co.uk 🏴‍☠️ ------------- You can also follow my adventures as the Narrowboat Pirate aboard The Jolly Roger, Pirate Boat here: 🟦 Facebook - https://facebook.com/thenarrowboatpirate 🟥 Instagram - https://instagram.com/thenarrowboatpirate ⬛️ Website - https://thepirateboat.co.uk 🟨 Music - https://heidimanning.bandcamp.com ------------- 🎵 Music 🎹 The Jolly Roger by Heidi Manning Lady Garden by Heidi Manning A Lovely Pair by Heidi Manning The Rum Wench by Heidi Manning A Little Tug by Heidi Manning The Thrusting Cutlass by Heidi Manning Nice & Slow by Heidi Manning Plus Music from Epidemic Sound Get a Free 7 Day Trial of Epidemic Sound Here https://share.epidemicsound.com/d1a8w6 ------------ 🥃 If you would like to support the channel you can 'Buy a Rum' : https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thepirateboat/ ------------- 🅿️ Paypal Donations: https://PayPal.me/TheNarrowboatPirate/ ------------- ❤️ Become a Patreon and long term supporter on the channel for live updates: https://www.patreon.com/TheNarrowboatPirate ------------- #CaledonianCanal #ScottishHighlands #scotland
