Steilsteven Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 On 23/11/2020 at 12:24, TheBiscuits said: The definition of a houseboat excludes launches, so the definition of a launch must have priority. A narrowboat that isn't mechanically propelled (doesn't have an engine/motor) might be considered a houseboat under some circumstances, but it's not guaranteed. CRT consider a butty to be a powered craft as it's usually towed by a powered boat, but I don't know if the EA do the same. An empty unconverted butty being towed by a ''tug'' travels toll free. A lock keeper told me that a butty with a cabin longer than 13' would be classed as a houseboat ( but I've never checked to see if he was correct ) and subject to a Houseboat registration ( licence ) fee.
