In his 2019 article on liveaboard boaters on inland waterways in England, Benjamin Bowles explores the idea that dwelling on water has a particular set of effects. These effects, including material consequences of a liveaboard lifestyle, change the way people relate to the environment, nature, and time (see Bowles 2016; 2019). Elsewhere Bowles extends this analysis to look at how dwelling on water influences how individuals relate to local authorities, ideas of freedom and governance, and the sedentary communities with which boaters are often opposed (see Bowles 2017; 2021). By exploring how watery environments are seen by boaters as one of the last free spaces in a "post-enclosure world" (Bowles 2016:109), Bowles' work resonates with a wider literature on how individuals face increasing restrictions on their rights and access to the seas (see Walley 2002; Davis 2014; Kamat 2014; Weir and Kerr 2019; Seto and Campbell 2019). This "blue grabbing" of marine resources and coastal space can occur in multiple ways, including by the state through marine conservation and with environmental concerns as a core driver (see Benjaminsen and Bryceson 2012; Hill 2017). This research project responds to the above ideas in the context of England's south coast, where a large multi-partner initiative to restore seabed habitats is aiming to influence the knowledge, values and behaviour of recreational boaters . This EU-funded project, LIFE Recreation ReMEDIES, has generated concerns for some boaters over the risk of decreasing access to marine spaces, for example through the erection of No-Anchor Zones.

在他2019年关于英国内陆水道船宿船民的文章中，Benjamin Bowles探讨了居住在水上有一系列特殊影响的想法。这些影响，包括船宿生活方式的物质后果，改变了人们与环境，自然和时间的关系（参见Bowles 2016; 2019）。在其他地方，Bowles扩展了这一分析，研究了居住在水上如何影响个人与地方当局的关系，自由和治理的想法，以及船民经常反对的定居社区（见Bowles 2017; 2021）。通过探索划船者如何将水环境视为“后封闭世界”中最后的自由空间之一（Bowles 2016：109），Bowles的工作与更广泛的文献产生了共鸣，这些文献涉及个人如何面对越来越多的权利和进入海洋的限制（见Walley 2002; Davis 2014; Kamat 2014; Weir和Kerr 2019;濑户和坎贝尔2019）。这种对海洋资源和沿海空间的“蓝色掠夺”可以通过多种方式发生，包括国家通过海洋保护以及以环境问题为核心驱动力（见Benjaminsen和Bryceson 2012; Hill 2017）。该研究项目在英格兰南部海岸的背景下回应了上述想法，在那里，一个大型的恢复海底生境的多伙伴倡议旨在影响休闲划船者的知识，价值观和行为。这个由欧盟资助的项目，生活娱乐补救措施，引起了一些船民对减少进入海洋空间的风险的担忧，例如通过建立无锚区。
