I've been looking into narrowboats for a few months, I'm planning on moving back home, saving money and while I'm saving money, doing a boating course if thats a thing, and just generally figuring out logistics. I know generally what I'm getting into, but definitely more research needs to be done before diving in and thats what I'll do while I'm saving money. I'm expecting it to cost at least as much as living in a flat, but I'm interested in the independence of it, and being closer to nature. I plan to stay in a narrowboat for a week or so by renting one out first, to see how I feel about it before making any serious decisions.
