canalchris Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 In the same way that you have a holding tank for your waste, I'd like a boat with a holding tank for its wash. Then when you pass a moored boat, instead of slowing down you direct the wash into the holding tank. After passing the boat without distiurbing it you empty the tank again when you are not passing any boats (or only passing one that you don't mind upsetting) I absoflipinllutely luv this idea. We live on line on the ashby and i have just given up berating boaters asking them to slow down. trouble is most of them are weekend warriors, for the most part hire boaters go so slow they loose abiltity to steer effectively. Got me note book and pen ready... Suppose some politically correct loony is going to accuse me of being an anti human rights radical so and so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sueb Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Two ideas that didn't get to the build stage were a fountain in the roof for watering the plants and lads on bridges and a glass floor with fish swimming between that and the base plate.

blueprince Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 (edited) I would like loads of extra dimensions, and a "stargate" style device thingy that connected to the planet of nymphomaniacs, I would also like a small (I'm not greedy) gravity generator, and a toilet that discharged vertically, for yobs on bridges and a terminator robot that would do the locks when I couldn't be bothered. And a greenhouse. And a pub. And an infinite improbability drive. I quite like the color changing idea too. And Marvin. I like Marvin.

stewey Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 I love the idea of the colour changing boat! I think I'll add the windows that change opacity at the flick of a switch, too. Ah yes, but then you would have to change the name of your boat to Chameleon. Stewey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
