Like in the old days horses are pulling a ship through a canal.
The sort of ship is called "an IJsselaak" , I could find no name in the
paper, and it sails normally by motor.
They are working on the original sailingplan, so maybe we can see her by
full sails in a couple of years.
It's a scan out of a paper so it can never be as good as a photo.
I thought it was interesting enough to post the pictere here.


Why have the Belgians always do the hard work?

Because they're stronger than the Dutch;-)
