Product Description

More people than ever are turning their backs on traditional ways of living and taking to the water as a choice of lifestyle. Buying and living aboard a narrowboat is one such choice, one that is proving an attractive way of living to thousands of people all over the country. This programme will look in detail at the differences between traditional and contemporary narrowboats and examine some of the basics one needs to consider before buying a boat. From construction and design to decoration, from types of mooring to maintenance and supplies, all aspects of owning a narrowboat are looked at, many in the company of the people who really know, narrowboat owners themselves.

Customer Reviews

Gives the very basics
I don't think I'd have bought this dvd if I'd know how little information was on it but nevertheless it was worth a watch I suppose. Not really any in depth information for anyone seriously considering buying a boat, things were mentioned then skipped over. I believe that we will get much more information by just chatting to people who own a boat, if you've ever been on a narrowboat holiday I think you'd have got as much knowledge as this dvd imparts but it was a pleasant watch on a rainy afternoon. Not something to keep or even particularly recommend - sorry.
