About Us

My photo
In 1977 we hired our first narrowboat from Anglo Welsh at Market Harborough.From that moment our destiny was set. In 2006 we finally purchased our own brand new 57' narrowboat which we named 'Free Spirit'. Our aim is to travel the length and breadth of all the navigable rivers and canals of the UK. This will be our story as it unfolds.

Which way did I need to move the tiller?


Gunda took over the steering. I wanted to get a picture of this as she really wasn't sure about taking control of the boat. On board both boats we had walkie talkies and I radioed for Gunda to turn around and give me a wave. unfortunately in doing so she pushed the tiller in completely the wrong direction and consequently nearly hit the opposite bank. Christine came to her rescue in the nick of time.
