Author Description

This guide, now in its 29th edition, is firmly established as one of the most thorough and up to date guides to inland waterways cruising in France and Belgium (and Luxembourg). Annually updated each year by members of the Cruising Association's European Inland Waterways Section (EIWS) who actively cruise the waterways, it has the advantage that it is very much more detailed and up to date than other published guides. It also indicates what moorings are like, not just their location. In an extensive introduction and detailed information section, it explains the character of the various waterways; the challenges to be overcome; the equipment needed; licences and regulations; sources of further information; 'rules of the road' and many other items of interest to the inland waterways cruiser. This latest edition also includes maps of each waterway and a full index in addition to an index of waterways. It also includes a 15 per cent discount offer on first year's CA membership to purchasers joining online during the year. Members can download the free digital edition of this guide (and of 24 further inland waterways guides) as well as the Cruising Association's proprietary CAptain's Mate app, which enables them to access the most up-to-date information on routes and mooring locations.
