British Waterways plan to withdraw the 30 Day Explorer licence in the Spring 2010 following a consultation period. This very useful licence for trailboat owners who reside on waterways not owned by BW or who garage their boats on their trailers ready for a quick getaway when the sun is forecast and want to visit BW canals or rivers will be saddened by this proposal.

The WBOC has written to Sally Ash, Head of Boating, to object to this proposal and to make suggestions on how it may be saved.
