    Yes, good start, two nice kilts there, though I have to say the first (non-trad) one looks more the part for canal boating.
    Looking forward to seeing more pics.

    A few more pics

    Here's some more from our trip.
    Sure looks high up.

    Inside the Wheel gondola waiting to rotate up to the top.

    I have some more but will post in another thread once I have them sorted out.

    Dirk Skene- The boat is 63' long and 7' wide and weighs about 30,000lbs with a single diesel engine and a tiller. You go no more than 4 mph on the canals and it is GREAT! Beautiful countryside with cows, sheep, ducks, and swans all along. We went from Falkirk eastbound towards Edinburgh and stayed overnight tied up along the way.
    C152Towser- The Utilikilt was the better choice for Canalboating for sure with having to kneel down to reach into the engine space. It was a bit brisk out and we had quite a bit of rain. That didn't slow us at all, just modified our clothing choices.
