  7. The Wigan Towpath Taskforce Tuesday volunteers were very busy today on the Leeds and Liverpool Leigh Branch canal. It looked like there were around 20 volunteers cutting back overgrown vegetation and clearing rubbish and debris on both sides of the canal.

  13. Have a look at the vlog "the narrow boat that James built" as he was having one fitted and he was being shown the ins and outs of operating it. I'm not sure if this will help but he was being given clear instructions about how to use it.
