We are a family with 4 children we have got £25k at our disposal and want to buy a narrowboat in about a years time and we need the £25k to grow to its maximum potential hopefully to £40k we will also be able to save approx £5000 as well over the next year, any advice on the best way to do it would be greatly appreciated.:smileyhea

Hi debrsl and welcome to the site
.
How much of your £25K are you prepared to risk losing?
0%
20%?
50%?
100%?
As Martyn hints, it may be that you have unrealistic expectations that you will have to scale back - maybe postponing the purchase for a year or two?
What is the minimum price for a suitable narrowboat?
How is the narrowboat market currently behaving? Is it similar to housing?0
