This is a relatively
simple boat safety awareness test that you can administer to yourself.
You can even conduct the test in the privacy of your own home. This
simple and easy to perform test will see if you qualify to be allowed on
board a canal boat.
This is a simple procedure that is best
conducted in a darkened room. First you need to shine a small torch into
one ear. You can use either ear, the test will work equally well. If the beam of the torch shines out your other ear, you have
not passed and must never go near the waterways unaccompanied.
However, if while conducting this test you feel the urge to project
finger silhouettes of rabbits and eagles onto your bedroom wall. You
have passed the entry test for the Inland Waterways Association -
advanced marina dwelling - boating scheme.
This public service announcement was brought to you by your local Waterways Partnership. In conjunction with Sustrans, IWA and the Canal and River Trust - A part of the joint towpath users educational service.
