Many people (like Tommi ;-) want BIG, and that not always the best solution. So respect the small things. Beter een kleine die stijgert, dan een grote die weigert. For the English readers: Better a small penis that does his job, than the big one that fails.
KvE> A Narrow Boat will not load a container at all,
So what?
KvE> nor will one be safe to go to sea or wide inland waters.
Right
KvE> A narrowboat will fit nicely inside a container
You are miscalculating that. How long is a standard sea containr of 2 TEU? Yes, 12 meters. How long is an ordinary Englisch Narrow Boat? Yes, 22 meters. So that does not fit!
KvE> and that is the safest way to travell with a narrowboat.
If that container dropped of the ZOE, the Narrow Boat would be broken too, so that's not the most safe way of transport then.
