This seventh edition has been revised with new photos, updated technical and local information, and covers 60 miles of navigable waterways, including the tidal section to Kings Lynn and gems such as the Cambridge Backs World Heritage site. This guide has been written and updated by the late Chris Howes, formerly an IWA trustee and Eastern Region Chairman and past IWA Peterborough Branch Chairman.
Chris spent much of his life living on or near the River Great Ouse and was a knowledgeable enthusiast for the area. His navigation notes are the result of his last on-the-water research, enriched with supplementary narrative and photographs highlighting numerous points of interest. With user-friendly design and layout, information on moorings, facilities and services is enhanced with quick reference tables alongside the plans. For anyone planning to explore these waterways, this is your invaluable, don’t-leave-home-without-it guide.
