I am choosing to revive this topic in my first post! A long shot I know, but I would be keen to try and find a residential mooring on the M&B starting in September. My boat is 47ft long narrowboat. I currently CC around London but I have secured a place to do a doctorate at the University of South Wales which is in Newport. I would have no problem hiring a lorry of some sort to lift the boat out the water and transport it to the Canal if this was necessary but I need a base from which to travel from with facilities. If not, guess i'll have to keep looking on the Kennet and Avon which seems tough!
