In the backwaters of life time passes slowly. In this case a pair of narrowboats and a cruiser slowly lose their paint to the elements on the Old Navigation - also know as the Castle Mill Stream. The nearest narrowboat still looks in good mechanical condition, but the cruiser is now holed at the waterline and probably hasn't sunk because it's already on the bottom.
