Cruising European Canals and Rivers
There are approximately 10,000km of rivers and canal in Europe which
can be traveled by ships. Where these have been developed for commercial use, they are both beautiful and interesting to explore. Red Star Inland Line has a luxurious way of doing this and offers as series of Business Travel, Group Travel, and Specialty Cruise packages that allow you to see this side of Europe in style.

Cruising European Canals and Rivers
Well there goes another wonderful cruising dream (cruising in your own boat,
as opposed to commercial cruising).. I have friends who retired form the US Military in the early '70s and cruised and lived aboard for 20 year in the canals of Europe. The purchased a 40ft power boat, used moved aboard and only gave up the life style when the wifes health started failing (in their late 60s). Their family would fly to Europe every summer to meet them in a different place each year. Lived aboard or no shore, what ever suited them. Grand children spent months with them. BTW. The ended up selling their 40ft boat for the same price the paid for it 20+ years earlier. So the cost of their home and cruising boat was what ever they paid for the repairs and maintenance.. Now tell me if this isn't a better cruise than these "Specialty Cruise packages" being advertised (spam). Steve s/v Good Intentions |
