Full training, tuition, and all equipment/inventory provided within the hire fee. The only extras are fuel, gas, and any extra licences you may need for non-CRT waterways such as the River Thames.
Please note: We only hire for genuine bonafide long term cruising, for a minimum period of one month in monthly increments starting on 1st of each month. We do not hire for long-term houseboat or static liveaboard purposes (such as around Oxford for students, nurses etc) unless you are able to provide a registered, legitimate, canal mooring address and we can verify that mooring as being compliant with navigation authoirty regulations.
