How can it be right to have to pay more for only a fraction of the network. Perhaps we should get a group action going

Not able to use all of system but pay more than narrow boat, corruption at it's best

Why should it go on beam as I have always been told it's the length you pay for.

I use less water than single narrowboats going through wide locks. The license fee should really reflect this.

The width isnt the issue its people not mooring fairly and responsibly, over stayers and none liscence holders.

What a disgrace, it is the length of the boats that causes problems, not the width. Once again the motor boater is being targetted

We don’t see how it can be fair to raise our licence so much when we cannot use the whole of the network.

Narrow boats damage lock gates which causes more lost water than wide beams .

Unfair increase does not use up any more services than narrow boats
