Fly-boat Dee
This preserved fly boat is typical of the wide-boats that were built for the Leeds-Liverpool canal and the adjacent canals, to take advantage of the wide (14 feet) but short (60 feet) locks. A fly boat was one that did its journey non-stop, often including through the night, replacing horses at regular intervals. They commanded a higher fee and were used for perishable and time important goods. Characterised by a low rear deck and low cabin.

Worsley dry docks
Two dry docks, both suitable for wide-beamed craft, or two narrowboats side by side as can be seen in the left one. Covered too, so no excuse for not working on the boat.
