The Canal Magazine’s Canal Boat (and inland waterways) Manual is similar to Living Aboard (Towpath Guides) however it has a lot more large colour photos; and is Add Supported; in some ways this is quite helpful as it allows you to quickly jump to suppliers for further information on the items covered on the page.

I have lent Living Aboard to Loupie so that she may have a read of it; I will also lend her this book when she has finished the first one.

I will also be hoping to see some one from CHUG (Canals in Hackney Users Group) tonight after I escape from the Greenbelt office as I would like to enquire about living in Kingsland Basin.
