68. What it costs to own and live aboard a canal narrowboat

This is the third (and final, as it turns out) video in my short series about the costs of buying and owning a canal narrowboat. Here I talk about the annual ongoing costs you will incur regardless of how you use the boat, plus a quick overview of what I spend to live on board each month. ** I KNEW I'd forget something; a viewer has pointed out I missed the four-yearly "BSS" (boat safety) scheme check. Cost of that depends on whether you've got anything that needs sorting... ** Part 1 of this series, about the buying process, is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCcZ1lRqX-Q Part 2, about the costs of buying a boat, is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=518vc7rI9RI Canal & River Trust fees: https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/refresh/media/thumbnail/24443-licence-fees-2016-2017-private-boats.pdf C&RT general licencing page: https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/enjoy-the-waterways/boating/licensing-your-boat/application-forms-fees-and-useful-downloads My "Continuous Cruising" monologue: https://youtu.be/k_p70h-Rxps Got a question?
