  1. *New episode*
    Great excitement last week as nine geese flew onto our moorings. Join us tonight on the 'Erica' and find out what happened and why geese might not be quite so different from us as we might think.

  2. Beautiful skies over the river this evening, love the big skies here in Huntingdonshire. #boatlife #summerskies #rivergreatouse

  3. Nestled along the rugged Berwickshire coast in Eyemouth, the harbour exudes the charm of a traditional #FishingVillage with rows of quaint cottages overlooking calm tidal waters. Colourful fishing boats and lobster pots line the quay, reflecting a community deeply connected to #BoatLife and the rhythms of the sea. Visitors enjoy the tranquil #CoastalViews, where emerald hills meet the rocky shoreline, creating a perfect #SeasideEscape. The town’s historic harbour is a favourite stop for walkers and nature enthusiasts exploring Scotland’s stunning #HarbourTown heritage.

  4. I just spent 2 hours riding the worst bike on Jekyll Island. The seat was rusted into the down position, it clanked when I pedaled, and the front wheel wobbled. But hey, I survived it!

    Wonderful network of bike paths (not lanes) all over this island. And no hills! #biking #Georgia #JekyllIsland #boating #BoatLife

  5. Join us tonight as we reflect on that often under-appreciated companion to the canals, the humble towpath. We uncover its vital importance in the past and how in, recent years, its relationship with the canal has been changing. We also meet up again with E. Temple Thurston and the good captain Eynsham Harry as the meet a figure of the forgotten past.

  6. Christmas is coming and everything seems to becoming increasingly frantic. So, why not steal away for a short while to join us on the NB Erica to enjoy the feeling of waiting for Christmas to arrive in its special way to the cut?

    These moments remind us why the ocean is so special and why it’s important to protect the home of these magical creatures! ✨💙

  9. Made it - just!! Managed to record a quick Summer Readings episode. At a time when many of us on the canals are feeling the strain of today’s network, it is good to be reminded of just how far we’ve come — and of the grit and vision of those who fought for the future of our waterways. Tonight we listen to Tom Rolt’s account of his journey up the Stratford (North) and the ‘battle for Bridge Number 1 (Lifford Lane).'

  10. Good morning Mastodon! Greetings from a beautiful day at the Octopus Islands in awesome #BC! Here's a #drone shot of our rafted boats at anchor. The weather has finally cleared and it looks like a good day for a cruise southbound to Quadra Island.

    And I was finally rewarded for my efforts at #crabbing up here with two good sized red rock crabs. I've already cleaned and cooked them and will bring them to this evening cocktail hour.

  11. Well, it looks like I either caught lunch or dinner. Both of these are about a quarter inch larger than the minimum and both male so they're both keepers. Oddly, they were the only crabs on board when I pulled them in; the last few times the trap has been full. #boating #crabbing #BoatLife #SanJuanIslands
