A recent survey shows that 100% of eighteen-year-olds living on boats in the Bradford on Avon area have gained places at Oxford University, proving that as a group we have more brain power than BW. Well, OK, that’s actually only one person! Congratulations to the student in question and best of luck with your studies!

I’m a PhD student at Bath … does that count? Actually a huge number of the recent arrivals to the boating community who are under thirty-somethings in my area are research or technical staff from one of the three local universities.
In short, the average education level among liveaboards in our area is much, much higher than the national average!
