That is one ugly boat. But I have to admit I like the look. I'd need to see inside before I could decide if it was desirable though.

My favourite picture of properly loaded (bow down) barges. When you say 'properly' do you mean 'heavily'?

No, I mean properly. Barges handle better when loaded like that, hence why I try and ballast my bot as flat as I can, none if this bow pointing at the sky for me. Only downside is that if you run aground then you do get well stuck.

Yes agreed, my NB always handled (and looked) better with the water tank topped up but isn't that overdoing things a tad?
