BGH wrote: Hi BGH, I spent a weekend on a boat of the type you have described. We refer to them as narrow boats, for obvious reasons. They are great to 'drive', being controlled by only the rudder at the back. I seem to recall that our waterways permit a maximum speed of just 4 mph. It's a lot of fun manoeuvring one of these things through the canal locks. There are quite a few people who live permanently aboard these boats and, yes, they go to town fitting them out with all the latest mod cons. Regarding the anxiety, it has been more of a struggle in the past as I now appear to be making some progress (at last) with my current therapist. But, I still have some way to go. All the best. V.
