Art Inspired by Life on the Water
Our designs are based on traditional and modern canal art. They are inspired by the colours, textures, flora and fauna we see on our travels.
Meet the Crew of Narrowboat Round Tuit
We’re John, Lorraine and Boasley (our boat dog). We live aboard narrowboat Round Tuit and are continuous cruisers on the British waterways.
We travel the beautiful canals and rivers of Britain, discovering quiet corners and embracing unexpected experiences. From busy locks and overgrown towpaths to beautiful sunrises and challenging winters.
John is the captain. He steers the boat and handles the navigation. He also keeps the boat running smoothly by doing the maintenance and repairs to ensure life afloat continues safely.
I’m Lorraine and I share our canal life stories through our Travel Diary. I also create the canal inspired artwork that is featured on our Collection page.
Boasley is our excitable boat dog, he loves life aboard the narrowboat. He enjoys long canal walks, watching ducks, meeting people along the towpath and relaxing after another adventure afloat.
