A new life on the English Waterways...



An informative and humorous new boater’ s perspective of life on the Inland Waterways; charting their learning curve from calamitous collisions to confident competence, all fuelled by copious curries.



Two humans, a dog the size of a small horse, petrol, gas, and curry, all in a confined space on a vessel we’d bought and only in theory knew how to operate. What could possibly go wrong?



Dotted throughout is information on narrowboats, rivers, and canals, explored as we learn it on our own journeys, written in easy-to-follow layman’s terms.
