I am always astonished by this tendency among the modern boater to invite regulation. What would you have them do, Dave? Prosecute you whenever you get a new licence and you haven't had time to get up to the boat and replace it? Or when it's dropped off because of condensation? Or because the cat's scratched it off? Personally I would prefer to see a few licence dodgers get away with it rather than have to endure any more of this burdensome regulation that increasingly destroys what we most value about the canals.
