I dreamt I took "Doncella" close
by Delaware light
The ghostly
face of the keeper a foreboding sight
The rocks were alee
But for a change in roiling sea
I was about to pay the fee
Then
a merciful wave took my ship to hand
Lifting prow and tiller away from land
Away we sailed, safe into the night
With shaken crew to anchor in the bight

| NARROWBOATING IN THE UK |
Narrowboating in the United Kingdom. There are over two thousand miles of canal in Great Britain.
The canal boats that ply this water network are built long and narrow in order to fit through the ancient lock system. Narrowboats
typically are 40' to 72' long with a 6'10" beam. They are made of steel plate and are diesel powered. Maximum speed on the
canal is 4 MPH.
Click on the photo of the narrowboat above right
for a video of one of the beautiful and most popular canals, the Llangollen, which runs through the West Midlands area.
