Waterway Picture

Welcome

Water Explorer is a web application designed to assist boaters navigating the UK's inland waterways. It helps in three key areas: navigation, keeping a diary/blog of your journey and points of interest finder.

If your using this website from a mobile device click here.

This web application is not a 'sat nav' for the canals - but it can take advantage of this technology. It's designed to be used whilst on your boat, through mobile Internet access, mobile phones or custom hardware tracking devices. By integrating these features, it opens up many opportunities.

Your privacy is always protected, only journeys and your location will be disclosed to people you want to share the information with.

This site is still experimental and features listed are not necessarily available at this time
