The following video was taken by Tina (Nigel's better half) when we were on the Kennet and Avon canal. It looks calm, it looks sedate, it looks very relaxed and generally ‘pleasant’, and you’re right it was all of the above.
Now, picture that same boat, with the same people, in central London with the wind whipping up a swell and being pushed around by huge pleasure craft and high speed ferries carrying tens - or hundreds - of passengers (there’s a short video later in the blog). It was far from: calm, sedate, relaxed and the last thing it was is pleasant. Having said all that, I wouldn’t have missed it for the world!!
