Canals

There are 2,200 miles of navigable canals and rivers in the UK.

Some are joined up but others like the Mon and Brec aren't.

There is more information here.

We originally bought a narrowboat as we intended to travel on various canals once Steve retired. Some canals are narrow, have narrow locks so can only be navigated in a narrowboat, maximum with 7ft.

Unfortunately his stroke put paid to that plan so we sold the narrowboat and bought a widebeam, ours is 10ft wide and some are wider, we looked at a 12ft wide boat but felt it was too big for us.
