Thank you very much everyone. Sorry for not replying sooner - I'm in
the last three weeks of degree hell at the moment and it's rare I
remember I actually have a life out of all the pressure going on!

What I've gathered from the various correspondence (correspondi? ;-))
is that there are "official" lengths put forward from various
organisations, but determination will get you to where you want/need
to go! I think thats a fair summary.

My other half doesn't want to invest in a boat any longer than 57 ft
until I have some concrete evidence that a bigger boat wouldn't
restrict us too much. On how big we can go, it all seem a little like
the 'how long is a piece of string' analogy, but this correspondance
(combined with the chat i have promised to have with British Waterways
on the matter) means I have enough  ammo to persuade my partner to get
a bigger boat.  Good!
