- A Unique London Lifestyle

Imagine waking up surrounded by nature while still being moments from everything London has to offer.

Enjoy peaceful mornings by the water, watch wildlife from your doorstep, explore hidden parts of the city by canal, and experience a slower pace of life without sacrificing the convenience of living in London.

This is far more than simply renting a boat - it's an opportunity to experience one of London's most distinctive lifestyles.

- Continuous Cruising

The boat operates under a Continuous Cruising Licence, meaning it does not remain in a permanent marina and instead travels throughout London's canal network.

During your tenancy, you'll have the opportunity to cruise the boat and experience different parts of London's waterways while complying with Canal & River Trust continuous cruising requirements.

To ensure you're confident operating the boat, we'll provide:

A full day of practical boating tuition
Hands-on training covering safe boat operation
Guidance on navigating London's canal system
Advice on mooring and continuous cruising requirements
Ongoing support during your transition to boat life
No previous boating experience is required.

- Upfront Payment Discount

We offer discounted rental rates for tenants who choose to pay in advance.

If you're able to pay rent upfront, we'd be happy to discuss a reduced monthly rate. This can provide significant savings over the course of your tenancy while offering the convenience of a single payment.

Please get in touch to discuss the available discounts and find the option that works best for you.
