Dedicated to considerate boating on UK inland waterways

 

Just some of the comments received from waterway related organisations and businesses:

“Many congratulations on your website. 
BW is fully supportive of the Considerate Boater principles and wishes you well with the campaign” 
Sally Ash, Head of Boating Development, British Waterways

"Our (national 'Navigation') committee was unanimously enthusiastic about the CB advice: I think it hit a particular nerve of our 'traditional boating values' which we all feel are important to the Waterways, and if politeness and consideration are declining (difficult to measure), it is for want of familiarity by new users rather than any intentional deficit in good manners. We have attempted in the past to write our own advice that is wider in scope; it's your idea of concentrating on etiquette rather than the whole gamut of boating technique that gives this straightforward, digestible, and good-looking document. Thanks.
Peter Scott, Inland Waterways Association
