Re: The "other" cruisers.

We love canal boat holidays, and you have to love the fact that 57' of boat is considered barely adequate.

Crew also love the fact that you can get off and walk if the skipper is giving you the s--ts.

River and canal boating is VASTLY under rated. A wonderful time.

Not a chance! There is etiquette to these things. But as I discovered it is possible that you may be provided with a goat. The goat has no sense of humour but the locals do.
