But it gives a slightly misleading impression of the UK canals. During our academic stint in Wales, we took several canal boat vacations in several parts of the UK. Most of the canals are very narrow, only 14 to 16 feet wide with some even narrower. The typical canal boat is only 6 feet wide and squeezing by an oncoming boat in one of the narrower canals is a needle threading exercise. Sort of like loading film in a RF Leica. This picture looks like it was taken in one of the swampy Irish canals with the ever present mist rolling in. Or perhaps that was too much Old Bushnells the night before.
