We’re Jo, Michael and Springer Spaniel George, and we have been living full time aboard Narrowboat Perseverance since 2017. 

We’ve almost completed our quest to travel absolutely everywhere on the integrated waterways of England and Wales. From Surrey to Lancashire and from the Irish Sea to the Wash we have cruised on almost every possible river, canal and drain. We documented our trips on YouTube to share with friends and family and it turned out a few more people were interested in watching along as well. What a wonderful community those people turned out to be.

Along that journey Jo started making maps of the waterways, initially this was to help us plan our routes. For a project that started accidentally we are so pleased with how popular they are.
