Yeo

Yeo
This is the River Class butty Yeo, built by EC Jones & Son of Brentford in 1959 for British Transport Waterways, a division of the British Transport Commission. The River Class boats were a new design of narrowboat, designed to be cheap and simple to construct and to have 20% extra carrying capacity over more traditional boats. They were built of welded steel sections and used blue glass fibre hatch covers instead of cloth covers.

That's interesting info.
Water looks nearly as brown as the Bridgewater !

Interessante Geschichte. Aber das Ruder wurde bestimmt nicht von Hand bewegt.
