Bobbing Boat<p>Canals follow the topography. They turn and wind. When boaters misjudge a turn, they have to put the engine in reverse to avoid "touching" the bank. (Surely not ME!)</p><p>Especially when there's an audience, it's tempting to try to rev your way through what's become a multi-point turn.</p><p>But there's no fast way out. A 17-tonne boat accelerates slowly. I've learned, if the boat is drifting into alignment—however slowly—just wait; let it drift.</p><p><a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/CanalLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CanalLife</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/canal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>canal</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/navigate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>navigate</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/boating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>boating</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/boat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>boat</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/narrowboat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>narrowboat</span></a></p>

Bobbing Boat<p>Had a look at the winding hole, which is about 6 boat lengths ahead.</p><p>It's lined in concrete. I could see where boats have scraped and chipped away at it. Some wood beams would be welcome, to protect both the steel boats and the concrete.</p><p>Tomorrow I'll turn the boat in there, very slowly, and then head back uphill and south for a full day before deciding: east, west, or further south?</p><p><a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/CanalLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CanalLife</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/canal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>canal</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/boating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>boating</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/boat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>boat</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/narrowboat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>narrowboat</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/turn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>turn</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/turning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>turning</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/wind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wind</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/WindingHole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WindingHole</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/navigate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>navigate</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/navigation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>navigation</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/CRT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CRT</span></a> <a href="https://poweredbygay.social/tags/UK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UK</span></a></p>
Matt Willemsen<p>Asymmetry Unleashed: “Brainless” Robot Can Navigate Complex Mazes<br>The new soft robot, made of ribbon-like liquid crystal elastomers, possesses an asymmetrical design allowing it to turn independently and move in arcs.
