    I asked some friends who potter about on the River Severn
    They thought this price list would help - covers most costs - very friendly people if you want to ask/email them them questions they would be happy to help.

    Longboat life and costs - more residential.

    Just shows that CL is the place. If you can put up with endless bantery and tom foolery, EVENTUALLY you might get an interesting and pertinent response. Fortunately for you I have no boat/barge related puns...

    Wouldn't they be seriously cold to live / sleep on in winter ?

    My other half lived on a Dutch barge on the south coast from around age 10 to about 17. Worryingly, she was on the only one in her family who could swim. She did say it was cold and damp in the winter and clothes, books etc all went mouldy. There were logistical issues, but they coped.
