Widebeams have better living space ...

It's a common theme on the forum that widebeams are the devils work, but many of us would prefer to live on one in the correct area due to the additional space.  We accept living in a skinny tube so we can fit through the skinny locks.

 

Well today I saw a fabulous one!  I can honestly say I have never seen a boat with so much living area in such a size of boat before.  Acres of internal space, and it's own garden area.

I don't think you can ever have cruised the River Thames through Chertsey/Shepperton/Kingston/ Hampton or you'd have seen dozens far bigger than this!

No, she had just come downstairs to wave at me ... she is stood on the boat that has been modified to make more room than expected!

 

Maybe a different elevation would help ...

Ah I see. Look more to me as though she is shouting at you to stop taking photos and waving you away..!!
