Recenzii

"...your perfect introduction to cruising."
'It... really makes a good reference book for anybody to have on board their boat.'
'The book boasts that it is 'The complete guide to boating on rivers, lakes and canals'. And it makes good that boast. So if you are thinking of barging or boating on the UK's waterways, I don't believe you'll find a better guide.'
