Henk. That's a great picture. The hull looks really beefy - just right for cargo and commerce. The bow also reminds me of the canal barges I've seen in Amsterdam and on the canals and rivers all around the Netherlands . I'd imagine any workboat would be built to drop its mast to handle the tight squeeze and the low bridges of the canals.
