As a magazine we've been championing our wonderful waterways and boating for well over a decade, providing news, views, boat tests, practical advice, cruising ideas, updates on canal restorations and keeping everyone in touch with everything that's happening on the UK's canals and rivers.

Our new website is full of new features and expands on our magazine coverage as well as giving you the opportunity to interact with others and keep up to date with the latest news and developments. We hope you enjoy exploring it – you'll find out more about what's on offer and where to find things here.
