Stay Online Wherever You Moor: The Ultimate Canal Boat Wi-Fi Solution

Life on a canal boat is all about freedom, tranquillity, and the joy of exploring at your own pace. But just because you're off-grid doesn’t mean you have to be offline. Whether you're moored in a peaceful countryside spot or cruising through busy city waterways, having reliable canal boat Wi-Fi can make all the difference.

With KUMA's range of Wi-Fi devices, staying online while living or travelling on the water is easier than ever.

Why Canal Boat Wi-Fi Matters

From streaming your favourite shows to checking the forecast, navigating routes, or keeping in touch with loved ones, dependable internet access is essential on the water. But steel hulls and remote locations can block mobile signals, making connectivity a real challenge.

That’s where KUMA CONNECT Wi-Fi comes in. It’s designed to overcome these challenges with reliable 4G routers and booster kits that keep you online when it matters most.
