Thursday, 11 September 2008

My second article about Whitefield is in the new issue of Canal Boat. This one concentrates on some of the challenges faced during the build.

Do you think that Whitefield will really have any influence on the industry?; 11 September 2008 at 10:38
Adam said...: Hi Lesley

Well another boat I've tested, which will be in the magazine in a couple of months, has the same sort of colour coded window frames, and a clear rear hatch. The owners had got the ideas from Whitefield. Whether the influence will be wider than that, I don't know. I certainly don't think that joystick steering will catch on!
