Summary

Dataset from the Navigation Licensing System of boats registered by year on waterways where we are the Navigation Authority - non-tidal Thames, Anglian Waterways and non-tidal Medway. Includes non-personal boat details, for example length, beam, waterway, tariff and registration number. Registration years run from January to December for the Thames and April to March for Anglian Waterways and the Medway. The dataset is a snapshot in time during the registration year, therefore it is not complete - subsequent uploads will update the dataset. Registrations issued at lock sites or by agents may not appear or be incomplete in the dataset - this is due to the paper-based data collection and input method. A new charge scheme introduced from 2022 means tariff descriptions will change from earlier years data. Attribution statement: © Environment Agency copyright and/or database right 2024.
