Larger version of a pigeon box. .

Perfectly acceptable. From the HNBC site: "Pigeon box Usually positioned above the engine 'ole to provide ventilation and light." Picture: GUCC pattern. Colour photo credit ? Not mine anyway. B & W photo from a series from Time Life Magazine by David E Scherman.

I believe in 1941 stoves in fore cabins were recommended not to be used after one girl, Agnes Beechy died of carbon monoxide poising, her sister Clara also in the fore cabin survived. Ref "Care on the Cut" page 167. Sepia picture Christopher M Jones. Overcrowding on narrow boats was quite common. When boaters got wind of inspections surpless children woud disappear into foliage or on to other boats.

Both the dogs I have had the pleasure of owning have never been off the lead in public places. Millie our first, a JRT, as she was deaf from birth so obviously, we had no recall. Belle our current dog, a Border Terrier Jack Russel cross, as we didn't get her until she was 2 years old and hadn't been taught recall by the previous owner, who by the way in our opinion, should never have owned a dog. We take Belle to an official secure dog running field where we can let her off the lead to run and chase her ball which oddly she always brings back to us. hampton hill hounds - Search (bing.com)

This is the method I've used, works a treat. The wooden handle was made for me by a retired working boater. Also, I made a bit of poser bling from a short length of tiller tube for when moored up. 😁 Obviously, I take it off at night and when the boat is unattended.

Whenever I renew my membership of RCR I am offered the option of having the boat covered for any user or me covered for any boat. This is for Gold membership.

The night before we bought our boat I thought "What am I doing?" The night after I thought "What have I done?" But once you settle in it is the most wonderful feeling to have your own boat. 😃

@Pluto I studied many photo's including this colour one at The Port. Is the one at The Port not a true starvationer? I also looked at this site: Voices in the Coalshed: Starvationer - National Coal Mining Museum (ncm.org.uk)

My computer desk doubles as my workbench for model construction.

Dereck, a couple of pictures to show the construction. In true wooden boat construction the planks were steamed to get the flexibility in the wood.

A couple of starvationers I built from scratch, no plans just guess work, scale 1:25. I did briefly consider a diorama of Worsley Delph but at that scale it would have been too big.
