Apparently this one is very interesting to look through, I'm waiting for my brother to organise a visit to this one. I also have a picture of this in my gallery, I was lucky enough to see it going up the river behind home. A great story telling image=^..^= #11426147

How fun is that! WE had a family living on a houseboat similar to this on Cape Cod, they traveled all over the place until it finally sunk...:-)
