A good book but I think I would have enjoyed it more if I read it while on holiday or on a boat as it seems like a holiday read rather than an everyday one. The narration can be quite rambling in parts and I found myself sometimes skipping a sentence or two out of impatience. I have been on quite a few canal trips, my parents had a narrowboat that was moored around York so I felt I could sympathise with him on some accounts and it helped me to figure out parts where he started to talk about technical things. Overall it was a nice simple book, I think I thought that it would have been more detailed or adventurous but it was still a good read.

Quite funny (bit Top Gear funny in places). Made me think about the realities of living on a narrow boat - which I have dreamt about.
