The true cost of our narrowboat dream

We gave up our jobs to run a cafe on a canal boat (also called a narrowboat) but was it worth it? We're letting you in on how much it cost to buy our narrowboat, how much we spent on turning it into cafe and how much money we make!
Let's talk money. Narrowboat money.

For those of you just joining us, welcome! We're Vic and Jo and we've been narrowboating around the UK for the last few years on our 54ft narrowboat Zero. Last year we decided to give up our jobs in the city and add another boat to our fleet in hope of turning it into a travelling cafe and becoming full time boating baristas.
Follow us as we learn the ins and outs of business on the water whilst cruising around the UK.
