It needed a GPS to check that the canal grazes the north-east corner of this square and these two boats are in the square. Well, the grid line probably goes through the centre of their cabins, end to end. The nearer one is following a trend to have a cover over the steerers position. This one looks quite permanent, but can be taken down for low bridges.
