Barging is one of the world's best kept secrets. To buy a barge and cruise the waterways is a very affordable and manageable alternative way of seeing Europe without being stuck in one place.
Security is absolutely not an issue except in the major towns where you should lock things up as a normal procedure. The local people are friendly and polite. There is also a real fraternity amongst barge owners. If you are trying to dock your barge, other boatowners will rush to help rather than just watch.
