Waterways Hire and Holiday Guide

Published: Wednesday, 23 October 2024

IN VIEW of the state of the waterways at present the Hire Guide has been withdrawn.

This is caused by the many stoppages averaging at one a day—around 30 a month—that we discover has caused not only cancellations with hire boats being stuck behind a stoppage but often hirers not being able to have the boat required, both of which have been featured in narrowboatworld.

It is not only difficult for hirers but for the hire companies too that have to attempt to work around stoppages, the most of which have no warning whatsoever, making it near impossible.
