Waterways World has been the leading magazine and source of information on canal boating for over 50 years. At the heart of each issue of the monthly magazine is an in-depth boat review – looking at an individual boat from a top British boat builder.

The reviews provide a comprehensive look at build quality, handling, equipment on board and interior design and layout. Each boat is reviewed by Mark Langley Waterways World Technical Editor. A self confessed boating geek, he has written for WW for 16 years, been a boat owner for 38 years, including 4 years living aboard, and designed a best selling range of small narrowboats.

This one-off publication brings together 10 recent boat reviews and includes additional features on how to choose a boat, general guidance on boat ownership and a comprehensive listing of canal boat builders in the UK.
