#FOXES AFLOAT 79 SERIES#

They have a Twitter account now if you want to follow along with their journey. The new owners of Foxes Afloat’s narrowboat Silver Fox are Derek and Pauline, a lovely elderly couple from the UK, who lived in Chicago since the year 2000 before moving back to the UK to buy and live on Silver Fox. You should try watching their new content, as they still have the same fun way to present whatever they do in life! Never a dull moment when watching Colin and Shaun, whatever they do! Who Bought Narrowboat Silver Fox from Foxes Afloat? No more narrowboat content on the horizon, although they always say ‘never say never’. The Foxes Afloat YouTube channel continues, it is just that for the foreseeable future it will be about everything Scotland, setting up a small holding and mental health. As long time viewers of Foxes Afloat will know, Colin has suffered with mental health issues over the years so it is great to see him giving back to the community that has probably supported him. What are Foxes Afloat doing now?įoxes Afloat are currently living in North Scotland and are setting up a homestead/ small holding on their newfound land (an acre of new found land to be precise).įor example, you can see from their Twitter that they recently (at the time of writing) got some bee suits ready for getting bees.Īdd to this the chickens they recently added and you can see they are really getting going with this small holding/ homestead.Ĭolin has also become an ambassador for the charity MANUP, which aims to change people’s misconceptions about mental health issues linked to men. I think they are going to be there for a while, just look at the beautiful scenery they have on a daily basis (posted on their Facebook). However, it’s hardly surprising to me as they both seem so settled up in their lovely house in the highlands of Scotland. Well, at first they were still saying through their social channels they had a new narrowboat coming, but in a recent live stream celebrating their 200th Vlog they seemed to confirm that there was no new boat coming. The upshot of all of this is Colin and Shaun fell in love with Scotland and ended up moving into a land-based house up there and postponing the idea of buying a new narrowboat.

They then embarked on some canal and river cruising journeys across Scotland on a series of hire boats. In this video, they talked about the idea of using the proceeds of selling Silver Fox to buy another narrowboat. For many people, they thought the game was up and Foxes Afloat would disappear into the sunset (like many narrowboat Youtubers recently!). In October 2021 Foxes Afloat put out a video saying that their infamous narrowboat Silver Fox was going up for sale. They became household names when it came to Narrowboat based entertainment 🙂 What Happened to Foxes Afloat?įor many successful Youtubers, they would simply keep going when on such a successful path, but not Foxes Afloat. Foxes Afloat has 139000 YouTube subscribers at the time of writing and often gets thousands of views on each video they make. In fact, Foxes Afloat has become (alongside Cruising the Cut) one of the most successful narrowboat based YouTube channels around. Thankfully, they decided to set up a YouTube channel to take us along on this journey, which could be anything from watching their boat being built to cruising the cut and getting short history lessons about it! Foxes Afloat is a two-man team of Colin and Shaun who decided to sell up their land-based home and buy a narrowboat to live on and cruise the British Canal Network.
