Very impressive images thank you.. I watched the video on the Steam Boat Alaska & see she now displays a Carbon Neutral board.......the video confirmed the boiler feed is pelletised wood dust/chips...very good 

I understand the need to protect Patrons from inclement weather [rain], however suggest the tall plastic- sided shelter over the Alaska's foredeck looks a little out of keeping 

Would she still be the Star of the Show, or would the vast differences of Craft make it too difficult to judge an overall best vessel?

Thanks Ron for sharing a great collection of photo's !  Henley was the high spot on the boating calendar for me,
your pics are a great reminder of what I've missed while in Lock Down - it looks bigger and better than ever.

One of the dozen or so narrowboaters I follow there on YouTube.Canals have long been an interest, often a low key, simmering on the back burner, kind of interest, and the advent of the internet sure helped feed that interest.
Don't know if I'll ever build a model narrowboat, be it static or operational, but the thought has crossed my mind.
