Narrowboat gifts for her.
Personalised gifts for the narrowboat owner, liveaboard, or canal-bound woman in your life — mum, partner, sister, daughter, friend. One product, done well: an editorial typographic print of her boat's name, her canal route, and a date worth keeping.
The boat-name print.
The boat's name in display serif, the canal in small caps, the date in italic. Premium 200gsm semi-gloss in three sizes — frame-ready straight from the tube. Editorial bones, signwriter heart.
A gift for any of these.
Forty, fifty, sixty, seventy. The age she stops apologising for the slow life and starts insisting on it.
For the mum who taught you to spot a heron from a coot and learnt the names of every lock between Stourport and Stratford.
The first cruise together. The wedding-anniversary cruise. The "we finally bought the boat" anniversary. Pick one and put it in italics.
The day she sold the house and bought the floating one. Frame the date — she'll remember everything else.
A few that come up.
- I don't know her boat's name.
- We'd suggest asking — boaters are usually delighted to talk about their boats. If the surprise really matters: check Instagram, the mooring rope tag, or the boat licence under her sun visor. Order with what you think it is and email us within a day if you need to tweak; we'll wait.
- Will it arrive in time?
- Standard delivery is 5–9 working days from order. For tight dates email first and we'll let you know whether it's possible. We'd rather say no than disappoint.
- Can I write something other than a canal?
- Yes. The "route" line takes any 60 characters — we've had "the cut, anywhere", "Llangollen with the dogs", and "every lock she ever steered". Type the moment, not just the canal.
