Well, as you can see, I've brought one, it's bigger than I thought (ohh err misses) and don't for one minute think it will ever fit back in the bag, I will be trying it out on the River Chelmer over the weekend, before venturing onto The Broads in a couple of weeks, I'll post what happens in case someone else is considering buying one, in the words of the Rascal, more as it happens !

Mission accomplished ! to do it I'm afraid I had to break Mans golden rule.......... I read the instruction manual

I can get Barnes webcam on my iPad, but not on my tv, anyone know how to ? tv is a 65' Hisence smart all comments welcome, thank you

I don't know if they check, be just my luck they did the day I'm there !

Thank you Jenny for your reply, I've done a little more investigation this morning and discovered my local river The Chelmer is not included with BCU as I would only use it on the broads and here, now thinking just pay tolls

I will definitely go down the BCU route, thank you for all advice on this, out of interest my budget is £300 ish just for the canoe, can anyone recommend an alternative to the make I've so far chosen as number 1 contender It has to be an inflatable as I have a convertible, hence no roof rack I'm 6ft 2in and 17st my good lady is a mere slip of a thing, probably weights no more than a bag of crisps I'm just worried "my end" of the canoe will be underwater and I'll need a snorkel

Thanks for the welcome Charlie and the wench. Lol

The reason I've picked the Willamette model is that all other models keep appearing on eBay for sale, but the Willamette does not, only brand new, which tells me it must be good, please feel free to shot me down in flames if you know different.

Bobdog, does such membership cover me for all waterways in the uk ?

Thank you Ian

Hello all, I'm thinking of buying an inflatable canoe, a Sevylor Willamette to be exact, anyone had one of these and if so what are they like ? also, what do I need to do to register it for use on the Broads ? the plan is to use it on areas boats can't get to.

We also had a lovely time at the Brundall Boat Show and had to endure the tone deaf opera singer, as wanted to see the lowland rescue demonstration, everyone very helpful good choice of food / stalls, loved the river taxis The weather held out while we was there. my only criticism, the shuttle bus service, dropped off at Bells boatyard and had to endure a walk along a thankfully dry mud track, when we returned at the end of out visit to the pick up point, we waited 25 minutes no bus arrived,so decided to walk back to our car, we got to the McDonalds roundabout before seeing a shuttle bus heading down to pick up if the event is to happen next year can either more than two shuttle buses be laid on or a simple system via radios where as one leaves the pick up point the other leaves the car park. other than that, well done to all involved
