A diary of our travels with our boat Coromandel and our Hymer camper.
Coromandel is a 42ft Colecraft narrowboat with a cruiser stern, 30yrs old and powered by
a 35hp Shanks diesel engine.The layout is a double bedroom to the stern, shower room,
kitchen, and lounge. Cratch and stern covers give us more usable space.
Our Camper is a LHD 7mtr Hymer with a 2.8 TDi on a Fiat base. We have fitted 2x80watt
solar panels and led lighting, so are not dependent on mains electricity. Gas for the
cooker and heating is from 2 "Gaslow" bottles, which we can fill at LPG points in petrol
stations across Europe.
