Although locks on the canal system are almost all built for narrowboats up to seventy feet (21·6 metres) in length, with drafts of up to almost three feet (one metre), vessels of considerably smaller dimensions are often seen making use of the facilities. I did not see a licence displayed on this craft. ;-) Image]
