Cruising the Brittany Canals

Cruising the Brittany Canals, by Alec Macpherson

British boats are a rare sight on Brittany's canals according to Alec. This network of sheltered inland waterways originally began construction on the orders of Napoleon as an alternative to poor local roads for transporting heavy goods. Now it is a superb facility for boaters, cyclists, walkers, horse riders and fishermen. Alec and wife Cate have spent 10 seasons cruising this delightful area in their 33ft Fairey Super Swordsman, Yo Ho Ho and this talk aims to encourage more of us to discover its charms.
