4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

A huge amount of information and one would need to be interested in this subject to get the value out of this set of DVD,s but a must for anyone wishing to use the canals or buy a narrow boat.

"A bit disappointing"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This is not a “life-style” doco – more a nuts and bolts “how to” manual. Useful if you plan to own a narrow boat but a bit boring if you're looking for lively tales and anecdotes/

"Fascinating insite into canal boating and boats."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

From the overall view of canalboating, to the nitty-gritty of the boats and canals themselves, not to mention the intrigue of the canal-boaters this is a must view collection. And if you are planning a canalboat holiday, what more can I say.
