For some reason despite not owning one I have alot of interaction with Canal Boaters.
They are always interested in information about places and services along canals and I was trying to think of the best way of explaining how the contribute and use Openstreetmap
Of course contributing is easy - I just recommend mapcomplete.org, everydoor app, and street complete (less so as its road related)
And then I recommend an App like OSMAnd to use Openstreetmap - But for Canal Boaters specifically - Is there any way they could use layers or searches, any tips, tricks or Apps specifically get information that would be useful for them or be useful if in a canal boat?
Ah so I started with this and got stuck. I was struggling adding existing layers which already had relevant features.
Maybe we could chat and see if I can have another go.

I had a go but haven’t finished it. The link should be kicking around in this thread somewhere.
The major thing I thought would be good but haven’t included yet is chandlers because the tagging for that is a bit confused.
Also boatyards I guess.
@abeorch @pietervdvn @openstreetmap
Chandlers added read only as there’s no real consensus on the best tagging, no repair facilities on the map yet.
