Every boater has their tale. This is the tale of Grace and Roger realizing a 20-year-long dream to live on a narrowboat and explore the inland waterways of the UK. After 37 years of teaching for Roger, and as many years for Grace of bringing up Naomi, Steve and Jess, doing a variety of paid jobs, and finally caring for both mums for several years, Roger is offered voluntary redundancy at a time of "staff restructuring". He's nearly 60, and was going to retire anyway - a very fortunate coincidence. With both mums now deceased, and the children adult, the chance has come.
This is the tale of their first four years aboard Narrowboat Kantara, the ups the downs, the mistakes and the triumphs. Above all, the change to a whole new way of life.
