You wait eight years to do a Dutch barge video then two come along at once... This time, I'm looking at the question of what do you do if you want a custom-designed boat to live on but don't have the budget to buy a new-build? Well, you buy an old but sound boat and tear out the interior for a refit and that's just what Gabs Heneghan has done. In this first episode following her progress, we see the boat she's bought as it is now before the refurb has begun!
