Or is there?
I spotted this boat on the Kennet and Avon Canal recently. The whole roof has been covered with turf.
A narrowboat with a lawn - best of both worlds? |
One good thing about it is that there is no problem finding the water to keep it green. If water is that short, then the lawn must be the least of your worries. Another is that it keeps the heat of the summer sun at bay, maybe making life aboard a bit more comfortable.
But in the small space available in the boat you now have to keep a lawn-mower, or else spend a lot of time with a pair of scissors every week. And I would be a little worried about corrosion of the roof, but I suppose that is a minor issue.
My boat will remain free of lawns!
