We present Australia Telescope Compact Array ( ATCA ) and Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope ( WSRT ) H I observations of 15 edge-on spiral galaxies of intermediate to late morphological type .
The global properties and the distribution and kinematics of the H I gas are analysed and discussed .
We determine the rotation curves using the envelope-tracing method .
For 10 spiral galaxies with a stellar disc truncation we find an average ratio of the H I radius to the truncation radius of the stellar disc of 1.1 \pm 0.2 ( 1 \sigma ) .
