    I carried a 1 ton block and tackle and a 6 ft wrecking bar. I'd go down the bank side knock the bar in and hook up the block and tackle and pull the boat into the bank. It takes 5 minutes once you're used to it.

    You don't need to be on a narrow boat to encounter situations like that. Sadly, it's just a part of life that we all need to be cognisant of, particularly in less affluent areas. But as you know, for every 1/2 mile of dirty, glass strewn, yob infested, desolated urban canal, there's 200 miles of beautiful, lush green, safe and welcoming historic English waterway to enjoy :) You did right by quietly moved on. Good call...
