Dammit you ruined the canal boat dream! Must admit, renting one for a month or two would probably be worth considering before buying one. I hear it's all about finding a mooring space.

Yeah I would rent one for a bit first, preferably long enough to try and get water out of a diesel tank and empty the sewage tanks!

You might enjoy it, but I certainly didn't.

Also, literally everything went rusty. Even stainless steel and my windows mobile 5 phone at the time went rusty.
