We're here to Help

We aim to provide a personalized service and are here to reply to any questions you may not have found the answers to on the site. We can even help you with route planning: we're keen boaters ourselves and have local knowledge of the Midlands canals. And what we don't know about the rest of the system, we'll find out for you. So drop us a line, no question too big or small!
