Far more boating takes place on inland waterways than offshore waters. Some of the best cruising is found on networks of inland lakes, rivers and interconnecting waterways. In the United States, there are more than 30,000 miles of inland navigable waterways. In addition, there are numerous isolated rivers and thousands of lakes suitable for small boat recreation and exploration.
