So you want to buy a narrowboat? We sit down and go through the process of using a brokerage and also give you our top tips for buying a narrowboat. We were lucky enough to spend some time with Zoe from Venetian Marina who took us through the buying process used at her brokerage.

Girls.......spot on. Anyone wanting to dip their toe in the water, so to speak, and start the hunt for a boat, should watch this vid, then start. Zoe, is one of the best, it has to be said. I've talked and met her a few times, before eventually buying my boat, she just takes the worry and weight off your shoulders about the whole process. Sterling job, looking forward to the next one. xx

I used to visit Venetian way back when. It's probably the very place I was bitten by the boat bug and where I decided I'd like to try boat life. Even back then, probably 10 years now, they were so laid back about viewings. Anyone could jump on the boats and, let's be honest, have a play about. They seem to still have that 'come and have a look' attitude which is a major plus in my book.

This was quite helpful. I'm considering a return to canal life after a hiatus of more than 30yrs!

That's how much I am craving a return to this interesting lifestyle!

Thanks for posting the buying info. It would be interesting for potential buyers to understand the operating costs. We follow your travels around the canals but have no idea what this costs. If you are looking for ideas for future videos, I, for one, would be interested to know things like heating cost, maintenance costs such as blacking, engine service, repairs. How often things need to be replaced, painted, etc.? Are there any mold or rust issues? Prop damage or towing expenses? Just a thought. Thanks for producing and sharing your excellent content.
@TheNarrowboatExperience

Operating costs varies on the operator, just like a car operating varies. But we could come up with something if enough people are interested. Thank you for the suggestion.

Very interesting. I'd be interested in learning how to go about hiring a boat. I've been thinking of taking a sabbatical next year and a couple of months on a narrowboat sounds very appealing (one of the reasons I watch your channel). Purchasing a boat for this would be silly and your comments on the limited on-line presence of the narrowboat world explains why my research has come up with some rather pricy options....or that could just be the going rate.
@TheNarrowboatExperience
@TheNarrowboatExperience 4 года назад
Hiring can be equally tricky with many companies using older websites because they just don't seem to have to advertise. However, there are some companies with good online presence. We moored near Anglo Welsh on the Llangollen and we have also hired through Kate boats. Hope that helps a little bit.

Very interesting. I too would like information about the survey process, and then the costs that it takes to cruise. Do you have to have a boat license? Are there fees each time you change canal systems? I know sometimes there are mooring fees, how much are they? I guess I am curious as to the daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly monetary output? I assume that as cruisers who live on their boat that you no longer have a vehicle and a home on the land. Does maintaining a narrowboat compare to maintaining a home and auto? Thanks for any information. And these are just questions from curiosity as I live in the states and don't have any intention of moving to the UK :) But I never say never!

I don't get the pricing system of boats the older ones seem to be more expensive than newer ones, the same size boats are different prices etc

It's a price system based on Hull- so who made it and how old is it and what condition is it in. Then Engine- who made it etc. Then fit out- as above. So age does come into it with a variety of other factors.

Do narrow boats have a hull identity number like all US boats?
