A modern pixelated camouflage would hide the water stain and the boat from boat spotters.

Paint someone else’s number on the boat too. 🤓

Not necessarily, if your own number is on the boat too.

Paint lots of numbers on the boat including your license one?

 

Beats all the boats I see with no number and no name.  Can't even check licenses now on line either.

Traditional roses and castles style narrowboat painting works well too, as no narrowboats were torpedoed by U-boats during the whole of the first and second world wars.

But they bombed some

The Mersey Ferry is now a dazzle ferry.  
But with bright colours instead of blacks, whites and grey tones. Peter Blake did the design. 
I think he’s done a few.

Hmm... looks more like an African rug.

It kind of does 😃

But I do like it, and I did consider (for a short moment) doing something like it to my boat.

Is that a euphemism?

But why, on a narrowboat? Are they scared of incoming ordnance from moored boats that they pass at full speed? 😉
